Mom's New Home!!

Here are some pictures of Mom's new apartment and complex.
We will call these the "before". Stay tuned for the "after".



Mom's new parking space. To the left is her friend Doris' spot. Her spot is right across from the end of the building where she goes in.



This is the view of the back of her apartment. The sliding glass doors and the window to the left is her unit. She has morning sun which is ideal. Plus she doesn't pay for her electricity and heating so she can be as toastly or cool as she chooses.


The picture is taken from the farthest corner in the living room The door to the right goes into her bedroom & bathroom. The door on the far left is her front door. The door in the middle is a small storage area.

She has lots of wall space to hang pictures. The blue stickies on the walls tell our "movers" where to put things. Mom is thinking of everything. In her old house she has YES and NO stickers on everything. Ruthann's blue love seat will go on this wall and she will purchase a new LazyBoy to go in front of the window/corner area.

Della's oak entertainment center will go here and hopefully a tall white storage cabinet next to the door. You see Megan in the bedroom area.

This view is into her bedroom. The left side will have her computer desk and to the left of that a tall dresser. To the right is her closet. She has a window in her bedroom -- just not in the photo. Her cedar chest will sit under the window.


This is her bathroom. The toilet is to the right.She has some very narrow storage behind the bathroom door.
Here's Megan & Mom on the eve of Moving Day. She's lived in Wildomar on Grand Ave. since 1976 - so that makes 32 years. Hopefully she will enjoy many more in her cozy apartment.

The "BEFORE" photo's are very nice.
Is the window in the back view "LEFT" of the sliding glass door? The window on the right (as viewed in the photo) appears to be the bedroom window.

I think you are right Don -- Donna must of had her 'left/rights' confused -- the other left!!. Good job Donna - the before pictures are great. Can't wait to see it all cozy!!

Great pictures! Thanks for keeping the family updated! I'm sure it will look so cozy with all of Grandma's things in place. :)

Yes, it is the other left . . . as in your right. Sorry -- trying to do too much too fast. I took the camera over to do pictures and left the photo card in my computer. It looks VERY nice and she still has room for more stuff!
