I’m a bit late with reading your post. My excuse, heat makes you lazy!!! :)

I love your kitchen too! It is oh so Swiss!!! Really this apartment is amazing, and your balcony is a dream!!! We hope to find a nice place like yours on our next move of course with the dish washer and balcony too! What about the washing? Is it a bit easier for your schedule now?

The balcony is easily the favorite place for the entire family. It is like night and day compared to the other apartment. Each morning, I wake up and open my eyes and still can’t believe my luck!!!

Once we buy some armoires it will really help to get everything arranged. But, I am not going to stress about it. I am tired of stress. lol

The laundry situation is so much better. We have only four apartments for one laundry room. There are two for our building. I have one day all to myself rather than only half a day and there are still three days free. It is like heaven for me after three years in the other place. Oh and it is so clean here!!!

We had a dishwasher at the other apartment, too. I don’t think I could live without one. In our French apartment and our last American apartment (which is almost unheard of) we didn’t have one and I had to wash everything by hand. So, I understand what it is like not having one.

Well…I have hillbilly parents and even if I have an university education I will always be influenced by my past. I grew up saying Chester drawers (which is certainly incorrect) instead of saying chest of drawers. hehehe However, I am not at all embarrased by that. :D

Found a link of 100 most often mispronounced words in English. Pretty interesting.

It looks so nice! Great views, and your kitchen is amazing. Do I spy a dishwasher? Because if so, consider me JEALOUS!

Eeek… It looks WONDERFUL! It seems like a lot of space, a lot of room for the kids to play and run around. I love the windows and how bright it is. The kitchen looks great!
It looks awesome and pretty soon you will finish unpacking and make it your own space :-)
I hope the laundry situation is better than the last place :-)
Enjoy your new apartment!

Hooray! I am SO impressed at how much you have done already. Don’t be so hard on yourself. If you can get it all done by next week, that will be amazing!

It’s a lovely space. Congratulations on the move!
