what i need in a house.

1. a yard (or access to a park).
2. a place to grow things.
3. natural light.
4. hardwood floors.
5. a window in the kitchen.
6. a place to keep our bikes.

i'm currently lacking 4 of those things above, which i only just recently realized i needed. oh, i'm dying a little bit inside living in a carpeted basement apartment with nary a window in the living room. i'm thinking if we install mirrors somehow on the outside of the house to reflect the sunlight into our living room, it might work? or, maybe we should just start over again. gah.
