While I am adjusting to our new house magnificently, the dogs are having a tough time. They love the house, but they are glued to my side. Normally, this isn’t a problem and I would be more than happy to have them shadow me around the house while I unload Waterford crystal still in its [...]
After 5 days of moving, packing, unpacking, painting, decorating, redecorating, cleaning, complaining, and wallowing in the happiness that is my very first house - I’m baaaack! As I write this, I am sitting in my very new club chair in my very new living room contemplating on the importance of yellow-green verses olive green paint. [...]
What are you doing today? I think I’ll GO BUY A HOUSE!!! That’s right, people. In T minus 15 minutes I leave to go close my first house! Chris and I are so excited we can barely speak.
