The elevator is working, the laundry in the building is working (I received the debit card that I'll need to use the machine).
Had a walk-through with one of the management agents. Workmen left scratches on the bamboo flooring (probably from moving ladders around); the agent documented this (wrote it down). I will make sure I get a copy of that inspection document. I made damn sure that we both looked at every area that had floor damage. I will also take digital photos to save when I come in to clean the floor within the next day or so. The fact that there are scratches didn't bother me too much; they don't stand out that much - but I refuse to get blamed for them later.
The apartment is much smaller than I remember; I had obviously mixed it up with the other units in the complex I'd seen the day I 1st saw it. For instance that little bit of wall I recalled hiding the kitchen area? Isn't there - that was me mixing up this apartment with another one.
But you know what? It's still a nice little apartment (and has 2 closets).
So...a few days closer to the move.
However....when I found out that if I wanted to add another pet, it would cost me another $250 one-time fee plus cost another $35/month.... I had my answer as to whether I'd try to keep the little red cat.
I won't be.
She came into my life for me to find her a good home - but not to keep her myself. So now I'm casting my net and asking all around - anyone in my area interested in a sweet, good natured teenaged female red tabby cat?
If someone fairly local would adopt her, I'd even be willing to spring for the vet check & spaying. (Would save you a nice chunk of change.) Seriously.
