Bye apartment

Turned in the keys to our apartment today. During the final walkthrough they found a few things that needed to be cleaned better. So, I sent to Rainbow for cleaning supplies. Rainbow has changed a lot since it was bought. The isles are clean and nothing stacked on top of the shelves anymore, plus there were no more crappy TVs for sale in giant stacks in the front of the store.

I keep expecting someone to come to the house and ask me to leave. Something about me being too young to own a house. I mean, how did this happen? Am I supposed to own a house? It’s odd actually having a two-car garage and a lawn to look after.

We decided to do laundry tonight and found an odd growth in the washing machine. It’s in the center of the machine. It looks mostly like soap but has a little bit of a funky smell. So, we put the laundry on hold until we can clean it out.

We’ve finally figured out that the previous owner was a neat freak, but didn’t look for messes or things that needed repairs. She only cleaned things that could be seen. If she couldn’t see it in the normal course of a day she didn’t touch it.
