Home Sweet Home
Our apartment is really turning into a nice place to be! There are only a couple unpacked boxes and almost all of the curtains are hung up. Just wait until we get the lighting hung and a few plants and we will be on our way. Oh yes, and we still need a doormat to be officially at home :) We are really lucky to have found such a nice place.
I guess homes are what you make of them. In theory, with a little magical interiour decorator feel, you can make almost any space comfortable to live in. But, considering Tim and I’s little expertise in that area, we are lucky to have found an apartment that lends itself more easily to a tidy, homey feeling. Thanks, God!
Little Ironies
I had a big day this week. Big as in, important. Super-important! Really, really, really super-important! Usually, for such a day, I have to fight months and months through layers of bureaucracy and paperwork and telephone calls on hold. This time, I only had to wave my pinky finger and the day arrived. Somehow, having had to work much less hard for this day, it seems so much less important.
So, you ask, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! Well, on Friday I picked up my residence permit for Aschaffenburg, Germany, allowing me to live and work here until 2010!!! And that, ladies and gentlemen, is worth a celebration. Even if I didn’t have to work for it :)
