The New Home

1.9.10 We got a home! It is a 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom, completely tiled, home with what I'm pretty sure is the SMALLEST KITCHEN IN THE WORLD! At first I was not open to renting this home due to this fact & this alone. To me the kitchen is the HUB of the home. That's where deliciousness is prepared and shared, all the while SMILES are created! To try to create that same environment in a room big enough for one is near IMPOSSIBLE. But the Romero's plan to remedy this. So we agreed to rent the home for 6 months for a measly $300 USD a month, which will be split into three paying parties. Not bad if we can find the Mexican income to support it. The entire home is painted a soft yellow with the exception of one wall in the living room which is LOUD ORANGE. It caught me off guard but we can work around it I suppose. The "laundry room" is outside of our living room on a cement patio where we wash our clothes & then take them up the metal spiral staircase to hang them up on the clothes line on the roof (which also makes a nice spot for tanning!) Now we are faced with the task of furnishing set home (since we sold all our stuff, remember?) We were able to get a 3 piece brown, leather sofa set for about $450 USD. Nice and a steal!
