15 changes I'd make to my apartment (if I could)

I rent so some of these are limited.

  1. Paint the walls (probably green)
  2. Install central heat and air
  3. Put a full-length mirror on the back of my door
  4. Purchase more storage for my bathroom
  5. Get an elevator or magically move my apartment down a floor
  6. Hire a professional to hang my art (some is crooked and I just don't have the energy to fix it)
  7. Swap my gas stove for an electric one
  8. Add overhead lighting to my living room
  9. Buy a bigger fridge
  10. Obtain a dishwasher
  11. Acquire in-unit laundry
  12. Hang curtains
  13. Switch to a jacuzzi tub
  14. Acquire more bookshelves
  15. Decorate for each season

(Prompt by me)

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
