Weekend Apartmenting

Kerry and I are spending our first weekend together in the new place. She is quite pleased with the arrangements I made in her absence the last two weeks. She wasn't thrilled with Buffy's re-appearance in the front window. (The life-sized cardboard stand up). But Buffy does a nice job protecting the premises and even with the renter's insurance in place, we can always use the extra security.

The neighbors are noisy here. There seems to be more ongoing busy-ness in the apartments than over at the condo in Four Lakes. And/or thinner walls. Hard to say. When Kerry got home Thursday night, she noticed the noise. But she seems to be acclimating.

Saturday, she ran in the St. John's Lutheran 5K and then we chased around and got lunch while Firestone looked at the Mercedes' A/C. They eventually decided they couldn't recharge the freon because of Mercedes' special electronic monitors. I had softball practice and then we went to see Spiderman 3 (my review is forthcoming on Blog Dog Musings).

We picked up a wall mount for the 17" flat screen HDTV/DVD combo that I picked up for temporary use in the apartment bedroom and in the new house's master bath. Looks pretty simple to install but since the apartment office is coming through this week to take measurements for future renovations, I'll wait until they come and go before hanging the bracket on the wall. No need to catch their attention with such things.
