We're moving in with his parents next week for about two weeks. We may get less privacy, but we also get cooked meals and a couple weeks of no rent.
One more day until we sign the lease!
Remember yesterday when I was complaining about how 40 people showed up to the apartment that we wanted? WE GOT IT!!! I'm not sure what set us above everybody else (okay, we may have added a few extra dollars to the proposed weekly rent), but we are lucky people. These are things that we will see every day in our new neighborhood: That's right! We're across the street from the river, and we are down the street from the Adelaide Oval and my gym! How convenient! We're moving to the trendy suburb of North Adelaide, where there is only a river and some green grass separating us from the city. North Adelaide also has a great shopping and eating district that is similar to the Parade (where we live now). I've always wanted to live in this suburb since I moved here, and now I finally get the chance!
