Today is Sunday. We had a good day, all of us together. We kind of did nothing at home until noon then drove to Manhattan Beach and had a very nice walk on the local beach. The sun and the people were out. It was hot and since I was dressed appropriately I was able to sample the ocean waters. They were very pleasant. I'm sure we all did get some sun.
Something else.
Now that we decided to become one nice family we realized that both her and my current apartments are not suitable for all of us. Each only has one bedroom which means that Abigail would have to spend the rest of her young life sleeping on a sofa.
So now we are looking for a larger apartment, preferably in this area. It is very interesting that the real estate company ads, Craig's List and other listings are full of two or three bedroom apartments but when we call the given telephone number we are told that the particular apartment or apartments are no longer available. It is now at the point where it is becoming extremely annoying.
Wherever we drive we keep our eyes open and keep writing down telephone numbers about rentals.
Yesterday I received three calls from the same person who wanted $2,000 for just showing me an apartment. He stuttered and didn't know what he was talking about. The mystery was how did he find out my number and how did he know what I was looking for.
We did see a few apartments already but none was that perfect place we were looking for. One had minimal closet place one had minimal kitchen cabinets one had a third room that would have served well for solitary confinement.
But just like the Eveready bunny we don't give up and just keep on going.
