good news, everyone!
OMG.
So clearly the reason we didn't get the greenwood apartment is because the one we just looked at is better: a small but neat building, 3rd floor, with 2 big bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths (no tub or shower in the one off the master bedroom, although the waster and dryer are in there). Nice area of town, not far from Sean's school. (Harvard and Olive in Capitol Hill for those of you who are local, which means that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arjache will be able to show off her favorite haunts, and we know quite a few people already in the neighborhood, which is excellent.) Two blocks from a Microsoft Connector stop, which means that Chris's commute is about 20 minutes to 1/2 an hour most of the time. (Also there's a stop nearby for the one express bus that goes to MSFT as well.)
It would be an hour to go to school for me, or ten minutes if I decided to do the pastry chef thing again - I haven't decided yet where I want to go with that. I'm not doing anything until the headmedz are more stable. The last thing I need is more stress while that's happening, the move is already enough.
And this building is owned by one guy and his wife, and they seemed most interested in us providing a paystub and less (read: not at all) worried about our credit, which is very good.
Seaners will have enough room in his bedroom for the trampoline as well as the toy cabinet, dresser and bed, which is awesome, because it means I might be able to get a decent sized dining room table. Lots of closet space, full size appliances (as opposed to the 3/4 sized fridge we have now).
in short: YAY. We will be moving no later than 1 December. Good times.
