Tonight after work I went to my old place for the last time. I had to paint that kitchen wall and clean up. The plan was to use the washing machines in the basement while I painted. I haven't done laundry in a while and in a couple of days, I'll run out of fresh undergarments. When I got to the apartment I went downstairs right away. When I walked in, I saw a pile of household items, most of which were mine and most of which I put there. However, there was one item that I did NOT put there and I thought that the manager went into my apartment and took the things I left in there out. I ran back to my car, dropped off my laundry and went right up.
It was just a coincidence that the candelabra was the same one that I left in the apartment. Someone was in the apartment, however because they left paint in there. Anyway, the point is, I did not do laundry and I am screwed b/c I work doubles for the next 3 days.
Moving on...I painted the wall, but not to the best of my ability. They might end up charging me and I'm not sure that I could blame them. I might get away with it though-it's more clean now than it was when I moved in, so...who knows.
Anyway, as I shut the light off and closed the door, I got a little choked up. Not because I don't really like the new place-because I do-but because I really loved living there and it was my first place in Boston. I pulled away with a good feeling though, and when I got home, I was happy. I still wish I could find some things and wish it were all put away, but I love all of the space I have and I think I'm going to make some really great memories here.

The new place will be home in no time at all. And I know you're going to get used to driving right into your own parking place really fast!
Travis is correct... soon it will be home. It's okay to be misty about your old home. Heck, six years later I'm still driving past my old house...
And I still get misty thinking about it.
Your first place in Boston will always hold special memories for you and having been there, I can understand why. Heck, I'd miss the crown moulding if nothing else!
Still, your new place is going to give you so many great memories, too, and I bet they start piling up very soon! Kind of like that undone laundry of yours! :-)
I'm so excited about your new job and new place. It's going to be great.
