We finally found a new home!

After 2 months of intensive house hunting we finally found a new home! It's a condo with a balcony in a Sushi friendly apartment building in a nice and safe neighborhood. The first day we moved in, a year ago (JUL 31st), there was no funiture; only the kitchen cabinets and appliances were already there. It was so empty that when Mama & Dad talked to each other I could hear the echo of their voices. There is a loooong corridor like a bowling alley which my parents did not fully appreciate but, I was happy because, what better place than a long corridor for racing and also playing fetch ?
The movers came the next day and they had a long day unpacking and checking if everything came over intact from St. Louis. Some small things got lost and/or damaged and they lost one carton that to this day, neither Mom nor Dad remembers what was in that carton...I bet it was some of my old toys! GRRR! I don't remember either!
I couldn't wait to check my must-have in the house: The Balcony! YAY!

View from the living room balcony, nothing special just some other buildings across from ours. We'll need some window treatments for sure! The neighbors could be snoopy...



Not a gooooorgeous view but, definetely very entertaining: I see cars, buses, two and four-legged people from here. We're on the 3rd floor so I can see everything very well!

Yes, aunty M, start making plans for next summer because once Chicago freezes again, it's no fun. Hope to have everybody here next summer. xx

Marcia Torres said...

Well, Sushi... it'll be impossible to be there next summer... because I think your parents are gonna be here because of your aunty H's wedding. Are you coming along?
Beijos.

Such a cute post -- nothing better than long hallways and a balcony for viewing pleasure :)

Sushi said...

Hi Aunty M. The wedding will be in March, not in the summer time. I don't know if I will be able to fly there, you know, airlines they are not very Sushi friendly...

Sushi said...
