Ketch-up Day

Today I decided not to go to Ueda to hang out with people or go to a party in Chikuma or go to the beach with some people. I slept in, got up, did some laundry, listened to music, cleaned up my bathroom a bit, and decided to hand wash my hardwood floors which were thoroughly filthy. I must say that now, they look great. My apartment is starting to looks cleaner and cleaner each day and yet I still have a lot to tend to. I decided that I need a proper storage unit for my dishes. The last tenants here used this metal wire shelving unit to house their plates/bowls but I think it looks terrible in the kitchen and well doesn’t really protect against dust or whatever, the dishes are kind of just chilling out in the open. That will be one of my first big purchases, I think. I would really like to get things all situated the way I like before the winter comes because I know I will be spending more time inside when it gets colder out. I figure that buying a few nice new additions can be my contribution to this place. That and well the thorough cleaning that I plan to do routinely. It really is a nice place and deserves to be kept up with properly. I would ideally like to spend all my money and make this place amazing looking but I think that I will just make do with the things I have for the most part and save that money for traveling or my next more permanent apartment.
