Again, with no elevator.

I can't imagine no elevator and walking up with groceries.

I don't have OCD but I do have a problem with spinning around. When I do a series of motions that collectively have me do a full 360 clockwise turn, then I have to do a counterclockwise turn to undo it.

I also live in the third floor so whenever I take the stairs, I have to do three spins afterwards to "unspinn" myself.

So no, I do not like living in a building without an elevator

I'm sorry, that sounds so inconvenient. I'm sorry that a piece of your brain space needs to be assigned to this, and I can imagine it feeling so uncomfortable until you're able to unspin. That's awful.

I lived in a lower level apartment with no elevator. Kind of like a basement apartment but it's ground level in the back. I can't remember what that's called.

Groceries sucked but I'm no quitter! Got everything in 1 trip. 🤡

Also I was allowed to have a bigger dog since no one was underneath me, but I was forbidden from owning a pot bellied pig. 😔

Some bad things would be:

  • headlights directly in living room at night (behind the TV)
  • flooding concerns from the front garden
  • difficulty using stairs if injured or moving heavy stuff
  • not handicap accessible so have to turn away friends and go somewhere else
  • the people upstairs sounded like they were stomping everywhere and also rearranging their furniture every day
  • other typical shitty apartment things

At least the stairs were covered though

Second floor now, third floor earlier, so what? I’m up the stairs before the elevator would even have arrived. Are you, like, 80?
