Gee....thanks, Corin. :-/
Yeah...though I admit, the pictures are kinda disheartening. Gonna take me a little while to adjust to "But if I did this...things would work better/look nicer" mode. ;-)
Is that a bowling ball in the middle of the living room? LOL!
Is that flowery thing in the one bedroom covering up anything?
At least the small bathroom is intact, if pretty nasty.
I wonder what the landlord will say about the rent offer after seeing more of the inside.
It's all your fault, Ruthy! Poor little crab didn't have anything to live for once you weren't there. < /guilt trip>
Crab People! Crab People!
*sticks tongue out at you*
He wasn't pining for me, he was pining for the fjords. :-D
Are you insinuating my hermit crab was queer?
Maybe the other guys killed him cuz he got too touchy-feely.
It's pretty depressing inside right now, particularly the main bathroom. The one that says "big BR" that's right off the living room is actually the one I'd choose... the floor's dirty but the shampooer will clean it. The bathroom that's in there is workable.
The flowery thing isn't covering anything bad.
Do you bowl? ;~D
Hmmmm....I thought crabs were hermaphroditic....
*shrugs*
Wish I knew what he died from, so I wouldn't worry about the others.
Heh...the bowling ball just struck me as incongruous. Trash, I understand. Busted fixtures, I understand. But a bowling ball? Why leave that behind, right in the middle of a room?
I'm easily amused, obviously. ;-)
I guess the stove and the floor would be the biggest deal breakers, huh? Can't get along without a stovetop for long at all. The oven looks pretty ancient, too, but if it still works...well, that's OK.
Sorry.
(((Ruthy)))
Spraypaint the bowling ball and use it as a garden ornament...
I think the bathroom is the biggest problem. The stovetop is easy enough to replace, and not all that expensive, probably... the fixtures wouldn't be hard either, my dad knows how to wire new fixtures if the landlord doesn't get it done... The place is a mess, but it could be cleaned.
But the bathroom is going to take carpentry.
I'll let you know when I talk to him, after he's been inside.
*snicker*
Ya know, the thought had occurred to me.
There are tires, too. And a busted sink.
Could do a whole redneck garden.
I'm actually serious. I saw it in a gardening magazine.
No worries, hon.
One good thing about these pets is that you can't really get ~too~ emotionally attached to them.
Well, except for Bubba. He's my favorite.
We have one buried in the back next to the cat...
I chucked my dead dude in the trash, unfortunately.
He was already reeking and I don't want something to dig him up and find bits all over the place. :-/
Oh, I know. I've seen it before! Actually doesn't look bad. Gives a garden a focal point...which makes it look more organized and stuff.
This one is red...so it wouldn't even need spray painting. ;-)
Keep me informed!
I'm sorry you've really ended up in the middle so much...but he hasn't ever gotten back to me on anything. :-\
