We did it! After 2 weeks of tirelessly searching, we found an apartment! We are living a 5-10 min walk out of City Center and Kate Mansfield's house is just down the block. It feels so good to finally be able unpack all the suitcases and rediscover all my things again.
Our first night in the apartment was rough! We thought we could tough it out, put on a few layers, and save some money by not turning the heat on. This plan of action would have worked great if had not been 30-33F outside, windy, and rainy. I was taken back to those cold nights on our road trip; balled up in a sleeping bag, freezing in a minivan in a Walmart parking lot somewhere. By 2am, we hadn't slept well, our heads felt frozen, and I had the inklings of a sore throat - we caved in and turned on the heater and it was glorious.
Two days later, we've got heating the apartment down to a science. We've also acquired some electric blankets that are probably straight from a unicorn fairyland nearby- they are that awesome.
The place is still a mess but here are a quick few pictures
