The Grand Tour

By Katie

I had all intentions of doing this yesterday but then I got pulled into four hours of work.....
By the way, mom, all the lights were only on for the sake of the pictures. Usually we are good at turning off our lights.... :)

Our Kitchen

The kitchen, "living area" and "study" are all part of one big room. In this picture you can see our drying rack for towels on the right hand side, the stacking washer/dryer in the back left, and our table. It is nice having a washer/dryer but they are very, very small and so we have to wash about every other day. Also in the picture is the sink that doesn't work and the little fridge that doesn't work.




Our Living area
The door in the back is to the bathroom with the only working sink so we have to wash dishes there after every meal. You can also see how close it is to the "kitchen".





Our Study
The blue box you see in the bottom right corner with the water and bucket, etc is our hurricane kit. We are working on building it up by getting just a bit more every time we run to Fosters. You can just see a bit of the bathroom door to give you a feel for how close everything is.

Our Bedroom

What you can see is all there is besides the closet. The bed takes up about two thirds of the room and we had to turn it like that (where it goes from one side of the room to the other) so that we could fit in our "dressers" (see plastic drawers).

Our Closet
We have gone from having large, separate closets in our apartment in Fort Worth to sharing this one, very small closet.










The view from our front door
The door you see on the left is one of the entrances to the library and at 10:30 at night, often students will be slamming it on their way home.







The parking lot & field next to the building
There is a painted horse that grazes in that field. He was behind the large tree in the middle of the picture when I was out taking pictures.

Katie hard at work on a Saturday in her office
I would like it noted that when I first got there last week, that desk was ENTIRELY covered in paper and files. I have gotten a lot done in cleaning and organizing.
