So for the past week or so Kelly and I have been looking at various apartments and deciding where and what we can afford. Two months ago we stoped at a couple apartments and the very first one we looked at we really liked. Well we went back there on Monday and after all the other apartments still feel it’s the one for us. The complex is right on the border of Santa Ana and Orange, it’s probably less then a mile from my work, and slightly closer to Kelly’s work since it’s directly off the 22/55 freeways. The grounds are beautiful with lots of trees and a fake river throught the whole place.

There are pool tables, a pretty nice fitness center, 2 pools, tennis courts, and a basketball court. We like to play tennis and I’ve always enjoyed shooting baskets. It’s also right next to bike/walking trail that covers about 4-5 miles which is great for getting exercise. Last but not least it’s next door to Hart Park, which means I can walk over there and do hill sprints and then walk back home. I have my whole work out planned out already! We’ll save a bit of money on gas since I’ll be right down the street from work (at least at this time I am). I’ve also checked how much our insurance premium will be and currently I pay $730 per 6 months. With us both being on the same plan (as multi car but not married yet) our premium will be about $1000 total! She pays about $650 right now. Once we are married we will get discounts because single vs. married have discounts (oh no I’m taking advantage of the same discounts I used to complain about! ). Today we go over to the complex and check out the apartments that will be avaliable the second week of May (I’m hoping one if first floor because then I can also do working out in the apartment and not worry about making too much noise for the downstairs people) and hopefully we will be placing our down payment and they will process our credit. That will be once less thing to worry about before the wedding!
