I'm so excited! I signed a new lease yesterday for a one bedroom in downtown burlington! The lease includes HEAT and a carport and I have a porch--a COVERED porch! I'm the only one on my porch, which means I can totally have a chair or something out there to read on in nice weather.
I just feel so motivated! I'm going to go get the keys on the 3rd (my current lease doesn't end until the 31st, so I've got lots of time) and start taping so I can paint. I've decided my color--the kitchen's going to have a red accent wall, and I'm pretty sure I've got the color for the bathroom--it'll ultimately depend on how much light the room actually has. The floors are being carpeted in the bedroom, hall and 'living area'. Honestly I wish they were stopping at the end of the hall, as what the consider 'living area' I consider just a really large kitchen, but...not my choice. They're also painting, but the realtor/landlord said I could paint, as long as I was willing to possibly paint it back when I go to move out again.
I also picked up a microwave cart today for only 15 dollars! And it's nice. Gotta love craigslist. I also got a collander and a butter dish...I think I've got a theme for the kitchn now...I just feel so accomplished! :-D
