Searching...
I have spent the better part of the past few days either looking for apartments of designing the wedding album. The task that seemed the most difficult to accomplish is done......the albums are ready to be ordered. We can't afford to get them right now so I'll just have to wait a few weeks, maybe months to get them done.
Apartment hunting, however, isn't going so well. I have browsed through countless listings but nothing seems right. The places we can afford do not meet our minimum requirements and the ones that do we can't afford. It's a catch 22. I didn't realize did would be so difficult. The better places are either not close to a transport link at all of are on main railway lines as opposed to the underground and Matt doesn't want that. He says he'll consider it but I know deep down he really doesn't wanna have to use the railway for going to work, he prefers to be close to the tube. This isn't easy because being close to the tube pushes the prices up and we are on a somewhat strict budget.
Another thing that is holding us back is the amount of space we need. At first we thought we could do with a one bedroom place but we've concluded that it's just not possible. We have too much stuff to fit into a one bedroom apartment. So, technically, there are many places that are nice and we can afford but they are just not big enough for us. We've already seen one place that is just a few doors down from here but that was a dump. We are going to see another place tomorrow and I hope it goes well.
On a much better note, Matt had a job interview today and it went very well according to him. He thinks he's pretty much and that's very good because it is a VERY good paying job and we can definitely use the money. I'm crossing my fingers that he hears good news from them soon, otherwise it's back to job hunting and interviews for him.
Ah.....the joys of newlywed, newly relocated life! (sense the sarcasm???)
