House

Tomorrow the house gets listed with MLS (multiple listing service).  We have had two people come look at the house. One last Friday and another yesterday. We haven’t heard anything yet on what the response is.  We are still finishing some details on painting and molding.  It’s been a long road but it is nice [...]

House photos

The Kitchen.  Yeah, it is done.  This is one side of it. It is a galley kitchen. When I get the dishes done and the other counter cleaned off I will take more photos.

This is the family room. Yes there is a laundry basket and a cat in the photo!

We are exhausted people!  This month is absolutely insane. I have so much to do, feed people, school, keep the house spotless, classes to finish up, recitals, birthday (mine that is…stay tuned for a possible birthday giveaway).  We didn’t make our May 5th deadline to list the house, due to my minor setback with a [...]

It’s Friday

I have groceries to buy, school to finish up for the week, and other miscellaneous errands. I am looking forward to another productive weekend in getting this house ready to sell.  One of the things that I have enjoyed in this process is working with my husband. I enjoy the projects, seeing things get done, [...]

Photo time

I’ve talked enough about the house, and now I finally have some photos to show you. I was hoping to wait until it was all done but decided to at least post a few in the middle of the project. The kitchen is looking better. The paint on the cabinets is finished, the walls [...]

quick update

Just thought you all might like to know that my sink is in and I finally have an operable kitchen.  Hubby’s birthday was yesterday and instead of going out to dinner, a nice home cooked meal awaited him, along with a from scratch cake.  It’s good to have the sink back.  I heart my sink!
