Moving Week

My past week or so has been spent doing one of a few things: driving/training between home and Chicago, furnishing shopping, unpacking, and assembling furniture. Minus a bed, futon, and air conditioner, all my stuff came from either Target or Ikea. A decent amount of money and time later, my apartment is setup mostly the way I'm wanting it.

One of two front doors.


Living Room
From kitchen


There's a reasonably large closet and a back door behind the wooden panels.


The other front door and what I've decided is my dining/study area.

In looking for a window A/C, I measured the square footage to be ~450. The landlord was a little off on his guess of 1000.









And the view from the sundeck on my building's roof.


I'm liking the place. Plenty of room...450 square feet is bigger than I thought. And that's not including the bathroom, ginormous pantry, bedroom closets, or back closets. Even though it's a bit more than I was wanting, hopefully the rent stays at $1050, because I love the place and location.
