Apartment Life #407

 
This is a weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell  Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that have gone on in and around my apartment complex and in my neighborhood in the past 27 years that I've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 27 years here in a weekly blog post.

Just when I thought things around here couldn't get any worse...

So, this is what my apartment complex looked like last week. It was white with black trim. It looked nice. The colors complimented each other, and it just got painted recently before it was sold to the new owner.

This is what it looks like now! I now live in the Clown Motel. So white, grey and ORANGE? Omg, I hate it. Looks like a clown should live here. 

So I made a meme using an actual picture of the new paint job, because of course I did. 
This place will henceforth be referred to as, The Clown Motel, because, Orange? Really?


This is what my courtyard used to look like last week. 

This is what it looks like today. Orange under the overhangs and mud grey walls. I hate it. No one asked me, I just live here. 0.O

Everyone around here hates the colors.

On Friday they painted all the doors white. The 24 hour notice said they would be doing the doors on Thursday but never showed up until Friday. At least the doors aren't orange.

Oh, and they are still replacing the decorative rock all over the property too. This huge truck came by and dumped a huge pile of rock in the alley. They really should let them finish one thing before giving them something else to do. 


The high this week was 75F/23C
The low this week was 49F/9C

So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell  Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.

  1. This update is both hilarious and tragically surprising; I can't believe the new owners chose that bright orange, as it truly resembles a clown motel now. Do you think they are colorblind, or are they secretly trying to drive everyone away with those outrageous walls? Have a wild and happy weekend! Also, I just shared a new travel post that you are invited to read at www.melodyjacob.com.

  2. I guess I'm glad to read that you don't like this color scheme. Because I have to say the striped effect reminds me of the very older mobile homes that when I was a kid we called them trailers. I'm not a fan of orange for any reason except in a flower. I'm sorry you have to look at this.
