  • Nearly Heaven Near My Job

    July 22, 2015
    I can walk to my job in downtown Des Moines from my secure multi-cultural, peaceful, one bedroom apartment. (Our nation could take some cues from our apartment building.) My cleverly designed and appointed one bedroom apartment would cost twice as much in another part of the city. I'm blessed and grateful to have found it. Appliances include a microwave oven and dishwasher in addition to a range and refrigerator. It's Iowa, so of course there is heating AND air-conditioning. It's tiny, but I ...
    do have a balcony. Our modern building blends well into a historic neighborhood. I'm not at a point in life where I'm looking at local schools, but grocery shopping and restaurants are within easy walking distance.
