As many of you know I am getting married real soon. I promise I won't dedicate every post to that, but I can't promise that quite yet.

So we were also looking for an apartment because married people like to live together. But Berkeley is legit the worst for apartment hunting. We applied to maaaaaany different places, were beat out on all occasions, lost a lot of money to pay for application fees (maybe not constitutional) and mostly just got our hopes up.

The good news (whew) is that the apartment John lives in now is perfectly fine. Just over-priced. And very small. Like really small.

But it's not a studio, so it has walls, which is a lot better than a lot of our options out here.

So get excited for this blog to become me attempting to make a teeeny apartment more homey.

I should probably get my own show on HGTV. Something to think about.

Thanks for your prayers and support.

Sorry for my weird melancholy post yesterday, friends. Sometimes you just get a case of the Mondays on a Thursday. But now my roommate is singing "That's Amore" and our apartment is clean and tomorrow I'm seeing the Avett Brothers.

Ahhhh.

But today at 3pm West Coast time John and I are viewing another apartment, with applications in hand, checks prepared to be written, references prepped and ready, etc, etc, etc.

So please pray for us. Every time we look at an apartment or fill out an application I shave 5 years off my life and get a stomach ulcer. John's ever the optimist which is great because I am Queen of the Pessimists. That doesn't look like a word but firefox seems to be okay with it.

I know people around the country are wigging out about how cold it is so send it this way! I literally have no idea how I'm going to handle a winter without snow. I can hear all you warm-weather-lovers hissing at me and I get it. But I'm just saying.

Thanks. I hope y'all have a great Friday!
