The New Place

Finally back on the computer again, but for much less time per day until the apartment is put in better order.
Here are some shots I took on move in day. Mostly it is great, the one thing that will be changed is the height of the bars on the bathtub. As you will see from my photos, most of them are at about knee height while one is so high I can barely reach it. they will be moving them up (and down) to match the ones near the toilet.
Other than an adventure involving a poorly installed ceiling light (left from the previous tenant) falling onto the bed about 10 minutes after I got up things have gone well as far as the move is concerned. The biggest problem is where to put everything, as you can see from the shots of the kitchen most of the cupboards are too high. Thank goodness Oscar can reach them! I need to determine which items are essential for me to have access to, then everything else can go in the out-of-my-reach storage and Os can get them down when we want them. There is lots of storage here, plenty of closets and shelves it is just down to determining what will go where, and what we really don't need after all.
So on to the photos! I have added a few captions:

The oddly placed helper bars

Lovely bathroom with LOTS of light

The first thing I purchased for our new home. It matches my Kitchen-Aid mixer!

The view down the hallway from the bedroom to the livingroom

The Kitchen viewed over the breakfast bar

Peeking into the laundry/pantry

Countertops at a decent height for using the appliances, and plenty of knee room under the sink!

View of living room from dining nook

Oscar has been an IRON man this month!

View into livingroom/dining room from front of room. Note the perfect height of the outlets!

The studio

Huge closet in the studio, fits our chest freezer, my clothes and my yarn!
