Diamond in the rough...

I get out of work a couple hours early on Friday thanks to Good Friday. Since I have a few extra hours in my day, I've decided to put it to good use! Matt and I are going to check out my fourth apartment option!  I'm more excited about this one than any of the others.

Its a one bedroom with an eat-in kitchen. It looks spacious and most importantly very bright.  It has its downfalls just as all those others had but I could actually see myself living here.  I don't want to get my hopes up too high because who knows, maybe it will be rented by the time Friday rolls around!  But I sure am enjoying the way its looking on Craigslist!

I am scratching my head a little with the burner placement in the picture above but that's something I can work around. How often do you use all 4 burners at once anyway, right??  And regardless, I love the mid-century-modern kitchen.  I get butterflies for all things retro and could make this the most "neat-o" eat-in kitchen in town! If I could find a funky vintage chrome and vinyl table set maybe something like this...

 I can just imagine myself hosting a dinner party for my friends and family around this table wearing one of my retro aprons and a high waisted cocktail dress and pearls. "Well Hello Mrs. Cleaver!"

Enough imagining for now... I'm just getting my hopes up.  I cant wait to visit it and tell you how it all shapes up on Friday!
Stay tuned!
