Tomorrow morning, Sunday, I say goodbye to an apartment of two years. I really nestled into the place; my rooms were painted, things were framed and hung, my work station was finally set up, and the closets were beginning to overflow. I know this apartment like the back of my hand. The sink faucet in the bathroom will drip if you do not use All your Might when turning the knob. In the summer ants will creep into the kitchen through the giant cracks in the molding by the back door, so have ant killer handy. To close the back door and lock it you need to first Slam, and then Push on the door as you turn the lock. In the summer time a fuse will blow if you dry your hair while watching TV and rocking out to music with the lights on. To flush the toilet you have to pull up on the handle. So many wonderful memories.

But I am ready to make more memories in a new home - full of new spaces to decorate, new quirks to discover, new favorite nooks to enjoy. And this time I am not doing it alone, I will be sharing it with Aaron.
