Today the ex-roommate removed her remaining items and left the keys... so the apartment is officially mine, all mine!! Today I called and got a repair guy to come out for the washer. There is a filter in the middle spinning thing that had not been cleaned since it was installed in 2008! (GROSS!!) So that clogged the fabric softener release thingy which is why it looked like the clothes weren't being washed. Stupid airhead! Thankfully the guy found 2 of the 4 belts that hold the bin snapped off which causes it to spin out of control, so there was something to fix. Now that I have all the paper work for things, I will no longer need to call for anything unless something major happens. The belts will be installed in a couple weeks when my mom is visiting, but the guy said I could still use the washer in the mean time. So tonight, instead of going out like I have been every weeknight this week, I opted to stay in and do 4 loads of laundry (still have a few to go), clean the now empty dining room, and organize my papers. Clean slate. Blank canvas. I'm so looking forward to Sales Tax holiday this weekend. Hoping to buy a dining table set, a sectional, a nice rug for the living room, and decorative items. Woot woot!
This started as a 365 day-by-day blog of my life in Boston as a 2nd year transplant from May 2010- May 2011. I continued into my 3rd year before one of my New Year's Resolutions was to make something new each week. So I blogged about my dishes with photos. Now, another resolution has brought me back to blogging. In March 2014 I plan on spending only $45 which can only go towards food/beverages. Stay tuned to see how I do.
