My House taken from [livejournal.com profile] jenmcd

Here is a map of my condo

1. When you walk in your front door, which room do you enter?
Into the livingroom, though the kitchen is directly to the left.

2. Do you have a dishwasher?
No but I want one. Whenever I redo the kitchen I am putting one in.

3. Is your living room carpeted or does it have hardwood floors?
The only room that is carpeted is my office and that is just because the floors are in such bad shape. I am lucky and have beautiful oak floors.


4. Do you keep your kitchen knives on the counter or in a drawer?
Eric has one of those magnetic strips that hole your knives to the wall. I used to keep my one knife in a drawer before he moved in.

5. House, apartment, duplex or trailer?
Condo. I sometimes wish I had a house becasue having so many neighbors so close can get annoying but if I moved to one I am sure I would find other things annoying.

6. How many bedrooms is it?
Two bedrooms but the office area, which used to be a kitchen, is seperated by a halfwall to what would be considered the master bedroom. Also I have a closet that is big enough to be a tiny bedroom.

7. Gas stove or electric?
Electric. I would have gas but my building doesn't have the pipes for it.

8. Do you have a yard?
Not really, however, I live across the street to a big park.

9. What size TV is in the living room?
A 25" regular old tv. Eric and I have been talking about buying a bigger flat screen TV for the living room but we might wait until after I get the livingroom remodeled.

10. Are your plates in the same cupboard as your cups?
The are in cupboards next to each other.

11. Is there a coffee maker sitting on your kitchen counter?
Nope. I don't have one. I don't drink coffee.

12. What room is your computer in?
Well... my computers are in my office, Eric has one in his bedroom and his laptop is usually in the livingroom.

13. Are there pictures hanging in your living room?
Right now there is one hanging up, a painting that my great-aunt gave Eric. There is also a giant space invader painted on one of the wall. I need to get some more pictures framed and hung up.

14. Are there any themes found in your home?
Construction. Someday I'll have a condo that is all finished up. Then I am sure I'll move.

15. What kind of laundry detergent do you use?
Tide no perfume/dye kind.

16. Do you use dryer sheets?
No, my washer/dryer can't use them. I do use fabric softner sometimes when my clothes are staticy or I want them to smell nice and fresh.

17. Do you have any curtains in your home?
In the living room I have curtians. In my bedroom I have rollershades but I like seeing the woodwork.

18. What color is your fridge?
Grey.

19. Is your house clean?
Right now, no. I sort of fell behind the last week. However, it isn't that messy either, both Eric and I tend to pick up after ourselves.

20. What room is the most neglected?
The kitchen. It is mostly a place to store junk.

21. Are the dishes in your sink/dishwasher clean or dirty?
Clean right now because I did dishes last night. However, there is usually a few glasses in there along with silverware.

22. How long have you lived in your home?
8.5 years in one side, 2 years on the other. Weird.

23. Where did you live before?
A duplex a few miles away.

24. Do you have one of those fluffy toilet lid covers on your toilet?
No. I don't like having a lot of extra fabric around. It is too much extra to keep clean.

25. Do you have a scale anywhere in your house?
Yes, in my bedroom. I weigh myself almost everyday.

26. How many mirrors are in your house?
5 mirrors. One in both bathrooms, One on the back of a closet door and two decorative tin mirrors in my bedroom. On, wait, I have a sixth one that I need to rehang in my closet.

27. Look up. What do you see?
Drop ceiling at work. If I was at home in my office it would be a popcorn ceiling that doesn't look too bad because I painted it and the ugliest fan I have ever seen. I really need to replace it.

28. Do you have a garage?
No and now that it has snowed I am a little bitter about this.
