We Don't Need a Man!
Home Improvement
Our apartment is absolutely beautiful, but we have found that there were a few minor kinks along the way. But this is no problem because between Vanessa, Ana and myself, we had everything up and running in no time!
The first issue was definitely the bathrooms...
Even though we had three bathrooms (one for each of us) the toilets were not in working condition, which immediately made its way to the top of the priority list.
However, thanks to all those times I tagged along with my dad and grandpa in fixing the house, I had some knowledge on what to do to solve the problem. Within half an hour, I got two of the three up and ready for use -- which was a relief!
Next Stop: The Beds
We had four beds for the three of us, but they were all in separate rooms, and no one wanted to sleep by themselves in the big apartment. That 's an easy fix... right?
Well, it was at first. We figured that all we needed was to simply move the beds from one room to another... until we figured out that just because a bed fits through one door frame does not necessarily mean that it will go through the next.
After an hour of trying to fix this problem from every angle possible, it became very clear that we simply would not be able to get the beds in one room together.
Until I remembered that I brought this handy tool my dad bought me for Christmas a few years ago.
With this handy tool fully equipped with screwdrivers, pliers, wire cutters, a flashlight, and more, we were able to move the three beds all in to one room so no one had to sleep alone. Now, we're sleeping "Annie" style (according to Vanessa), but we all do feel safer this way.
Below are the before and after pictures to show the fruits of our labor:

All in all, everything worked out nicely for us. Our latest roommate has arrived so there are a total of four ladies in the apartment, and it's like a sleepover every night!
Thank you all for your prayers, God bless!
