I Won't Miss this place
At last, our attorney has confirmed the closing for our new condo on January 2nd! We plan to move on January 3rd. Which got me pondering the things I will NOT miss about our current apartment:
1. Putting our silverware away in a tray on top of the fridge (because there is no drawer).
2. The freezer door, which is permanently frozen shut.
3. The dark, dimly-lit hallways.
4. The front door knob that randomly pops off in my hand.
5. The bathroom sink stopper that wouldn't stop a tsunami.
6. The hot water tap in the bathtub (the one with the 'C') that spins and spins and mostly drips.
7. The next door neighbour that watches action movies at 3am.
8. The smell of simmering garlic, onions and fish at 5am (from the restaurants on 56th Street).
9. The cucarachas in the stairwells, the size of my fist.
10. The oven... er, what oven?
