It’s Only Wednesday :(
OMG I swear this week is dragging by, but why is it you ask? Well it’s because we have possession of our house now! PC and I are so super excited to get in there and start remodeling making it our home that we can’t stand ourselves! Of course he is moving in before me but still I’m just as excited. I’m anxious to put our stuff in it, to decorate it our way, to have pretty tiled kitchen floors, and new carpet in the guest room and, and, and, I might explode waiting for Friday night when we start packing up the trailer!
I graduated from college May 13, 2005. That spring semester I moved back home with my parents. It was a 45 minutes from college to my student teaching school and it was 45 minutes from my parents house to my student teaching school, so to me, SAVE MONEY went through my head and I moved home in February 2005. Oddly enough, I haven’t left, YET… It’s boring living by yourself!! At least at home there is commotion!
There is stuff in my parents basement in a small room of my stuff that I haven’t seen in just over 5 years. OMG you can’t believe how excited I am to open those boxes! It’s going to be like Christmas all over again in May! We have a game plan for this too!! We have a dishwasher and a sink. We are going to wipe down all the cabinets and put shelf liners in them. While we’re doing that the dishwasher will be running and someone washing dishes in the sink. That way all things go into the clean cabinets clean! Plus we are painting/re-wallpapering some of the rooms so someone will be busy doing that. We’ve gotten some new carpet for the spare room so we’ll have to lay that, and the linoleum on the kitchen floor is coming up and we are laying the most beautiful tile! I’m not excited, can you tell 🙂
We were out there the other night changing the locks on the doors and the codes to the gate, I just walked around the house in a glow and wished I’d had cleaning products right then and there! We were out there again last night showing some of PC’s dad’s friends and again he and I were just like oh I wish we had cleaning supplies here!!! I snapped a few shots of the original house as it stands right now. Then while we are doing the remodeling and cleaning etc I’ll try to grab a few shots (if I don’t get yelled at for not helping… LOL) and then I’ll take some once everything is in place. Please sit back and relax and enjoy the show 🙂
On a side note: I clocked it mileage wise the other day… 12 miles from my parents house to work. 12 miles from our house to work. 12 miles from our house to my parents house. We live in the 12 mile Triangle 🙂
PC gets to clean the pool!
Doesn’t my car look so pretty in the driveway!!!
The office
The kitchen (all lit by skylights)
The Dining room area looking into the Laundry room
The “big” bathroom
The Guest bedroom I also refer to as “My Mother-in-laws” room
Tori’s Room
Our Room (and PC’s butt… lol)
Still our room

Anyway I hope you enjoy our house… it’s soon to be a Home!
Peace, Love, & Home Improvements

Oh, and no wonder I like you, you're a Mustang girl 🙂 We're also a Mustang family, although we sold our last one before we moved to AK. It was a show car and we didnt want it to sit in the garage here, unused most of the yr.
The home was awesome…….check out my blog…aazarshad.blogspot.com
