Those were such different times, at least in the Midwest US!<br /><br />Viktoria: I've always loved living in small places, cozy and charming, especially if they have vintage touches.<br /><br />sisty: Isn't it remarkable what satisfies us just because it's finally- ours?<br /><br />northmoon: Oh, I remember those juniors- alcoves, really! One's very own bathroom is a thrill. A friend of mine, from a family of 7, said she wept with joy when she closed the door and realized no one would bang on it and tell her not to "take all day in there".<br /><br />Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-34710722277500225262013-03-29T07:55:14.239-04:002013-03-29T07:55:14.239-04:00In my last year of university I had a little apart...In my last year of university I had a little apartment they called a Junior One Bedroom. The 'bedroom' was also the hall to the bathroom and the kitchen was in a closet. It was a step up from the single rooms in boarding houses that I'd been living in until then so I was very happy with it. Having a bathroom and kitchen of my own was blissful.Northmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15597456926736581361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-25286961763385182292013-03-20T14:48:01.919-04:002013-03-20T14:48:01.919-04:00Haha!

It´s great that your son is cool with you getting involved! Have fun!
