A humble abode

I am living in a foundation home set up by the church, and funded by some charitable individuals. For the most part it is girls in their late teens and early twenties living here. But there are a few boys and a couple of younger kids. We all share the kitchen and main living area on the first floor. We also share the laundry room and computer area on the second floor. The bedrooms are on the second and third floors. On both floors are two bathrooms, a larger and a smaller. The larger has two showers and two toilets, and the smaller has one of each. My room is on the third floor, and sometimes water just can’t make it all the way up here. When that happens I usually have to wait for the lull between the when the early risers have left and when the late risers are still in bed. I jump into one of the showers on the second floor, and take a quick cold shower. There is no water heater here, so all you get are cold showers. I’m not yet used to this kind of cold hitting my body in the earlier hours of the day, so I try to make my showers as quick as possible. That, and my shower mates are usually spiders, the big kind, and I don’t like spending too much time with them.
But anyway, here is the house:

Love the shoes, and the mopeds.
Wish we had that weather here, but most of all, wish I was there with you.
I like pictures. Please keep us posted with them :)
