Heh,
The longer we've been in our house the more Ruth and I are like...you know...it was really NICE living in an apartment.
Garbage disposal on the fritz, call the landlord.
Toilet backed up, call the landlord.
Beautiful garden landscaping...didn't have to do any of it.
Snow removal and sidewalk shoveling...didn't have to do any of it.
Raking the leaves...didn't have to do any of it.
Biannual exterminator service...didn't have to do any of it.
Didn't have to replace the filters in the furnace, or call to have the airconditioner serviced, or install a new garage door opener...
Didn't have to care if the cats ruined the carpet, or suitcases marred the walls, or the gutters were clogged.
Didn't have to take time off to be home when the cable guy showed up, or to sign for a package...landlord took care of it.
Yup...there's something to be said for the convenience of apartment living and not having to do any of the work...
Now that I'm a homeowner and get the privilege of doing all that myself...I really miss my land lord :-)
