Bitter Sweet Ending




I got home last night at about 9:30 p.m. after helping Molly all day Sunday and Saturday as she moved into her first apartment. It is brand new and nice. She will be sharing the three bedroom, two and a half bathroom apartment with a friend from high school who also goes to her college. The roommate had an apartment last year and already has some furniture. I’ve enjoyed shopping for her and with her. We are doing the apartment on a tight budget since her father and I are committed to tuition and not necessarily making sure she has the latest gadgets in her kitchen.

Somehow I volunteered to make curtains for her bedroom and bathroom… she picked some fabric for her bathroom and I worked on them this afternoon. First off I measured and cut and measured and realized I cut on the wrong line so I took the 30 minute trip to Walmart again today! She hasn’t decided what to do about the bedroom curtains yet, she didn’t find anything she really liked. Here is a photo of her apartment, the one on the right and one of her using a power tool (very out of character for Molly!).

Where's the photo of the curtains? I was wanting to see the curtains!
It looks like a nice place, and lucky girl that it's new!

Kay, it is a new season of life for Molly (and you). I am sure she is excited to be on her own in a new apartment. We will be anxious to see the new curtains!
