Another year at 2 Lincoln

Our building is poorly managed and maintenance is slow, if it's done at all, but John and I just couldn't stomach the idea of another apartment search, followed by boxing up all our belongings. We're finally feeling settled in here.

So we re-upped for another year's lease at 2 Lincoln. We figure maybe by next summer we'll be ready to look for something else, but it's kind of nice mostly knowing where things are and feeling a little settled. Besides, we didn't have to pay for the move from Michigan, and if we relocate within the city, we'll have to pick up the tab.

And by then, John will be making good coin from his paintings and prints, so we'll up the ante and move into something like this or this. (Wow, one month of that sort of rent would cover about a year's worth of our Ann Arbor mortgage payments.)
