Happy (but cold) in KC

Not so stoked about winter or having my giant windows removed and replaced in the cold weather, but definitely loving living in KC, especially in my cozy little neighborhood.

If only I could make it to the recycling center (or find a non-apartment-dwelling neighbor to let me piggyback), I could double the available sq. footage in my loft.  I still don't get it, we pay our utility bills all the same, why are apartments second-class?

Then again, in a large city where the animal shelter has one non-working mobile number to call, I am amazed that we even have our sub-par city services.
