Photos and Such

Many apologies for keeping you all waiting on those photos of the apartment here in sunny Redlands. Things have been very busy for us out here, work taking up most of our time. I did manage to save some money to get my hair re-done though, which is awesome, since I was starting to look like a wilting tree.

I've included a photo for full effect of it's chili pepper colored glory.

I've been getting a ton of hours at work lately, (in fact, more hours than some of the other employees that have been working there longer than me!) and although that keeps me busy all the time, I'm glad to be making more money. Geoff and I have started a new fund for the puppy we won't give up on... We've decided to each dedicate $25 from every one of our paychecks to the "puppy fund", where we will save up the money we had before in order to try again next year. We're still hurting from the tragedy, and it's still hard for me to see other people with their dogs, doing the things we'd been planning to do with Tazz, but Geoff doesn't want to give up. After we move again next summer, (into the city... either L.A. or possibly San Francisco,) maybe we'll get another chance to adopt.

In the meantime, I've got some photos of the apartment for you guys!

Here's Geoff's and my room...

And here is our bathroom, (don't mind the messy counters,) with our whimsical saloon doors to the toilet and shower. Partnered with the pirate bath mat, I think it's the most amusing bathroom I've ever had.

This is just the hallway upstairs, with some storage area for my art supplies.

Here is the living room... I'm actually sitting on that couch right now!

And this is the hallway downstairs which leads to the kitchen, and upstairs as well.

Here is Geoff, surprised that I had a camera, in our tiny kitchen! Much smaller than the one we'd gotten used to last year, but it is the perfect size for the three of us now, and I just love it!

Here is our dining room table, which looks out on our patio.

I hope that's enough to satisfy you for now! I've got to go to work in about half an hour or so... and Geoff should be home soon!

If there's anything you'd like to hear more about in this blog, please comment and let me know so that I can get some more ideas of what to say... I never quite know what you will or won't be interested in hearing about. Papa helped me out with this one!

I hope you all are doing well, and I love you very much.

Take care of each other. Hopefully I will hear from you soon! :)
