finally.
i can stop looking. i can stop fretting.
i can finish packing & moving (this weekend!)
i can have a new healthy safe happy home.
back in my favorite neighborhood!
i tried hard to make “before” pictures - but interior photography is quite tricky! the space is essentially a garage apartment over a huge 3-car garage, a big airy loft room with a handsome, efficient kitchen, a long lovely bathroom, with a window and no falling-through floor, a big closet and a … garage! i will change those curtains to my own white lace ones. it is like a big empty canvas and it does NOT smell like catpee, as so many places i have looked at in the past couple of months do. the landlords are nice, real people and not creepy property “managers” who will trick me into renting a cavern with a leaky bedroom floor and dolts throwing beer bottles and cigarette butts from their cement balconies. i feel glad!
and it makes *perfect* sense that a person who loves to wander the alleys, capturing garages - should LIVE in a garage in an alley. of course!
i am SO ready to be settled and get back to artMaking, thank you.

Yaaayyyy! It looks so big and clean! Plus ceiling fans! And so much room for art on the walls! Kathy wishes it was close to our house. “I love you, love Kathy I wish you were here to swim in our swimming pool. I also want to you come sometime soon to play with the baby kitty cats.”
