Sorry for the lack of update. I’m such a horrible blogger! Not a lot has happened since I last posted… We are still trying to finish up the office with all the shelves that we need to organize all of hubby’s crap. We are also awaiting my cousin moving in with us next month. So we are trying to get the front guest bedroom emptied and ready for him to move in. We still have to put the doors on the closet and we should be done. Most likely it won’t be done until after he moves in… but I’m sure he won’t mind.
Hubby and I are still trying to throw ideas around on what we want to do with the outside… He is suggesting now that we paint the house ourselves… which sounds like a feasible plan. We just need to take our time, and hubby needs to borrow the sprayer from church… We are also looking to move our fence up on the side of the house to the front of the house. And we want to do some serious beautifying of the landscape… it’s not a pretty picture right now… and I’m really sick of seeing it if you ask me… but right now, we’re low on funds, so there’s nothing we can do at the moment… We are waiting until the market goes up higher before we refi so we’re going to just do everything ourselves, little by little.
My mom is pressuring us to redo our master bathroom… I mean right now it’s ok. It fits what we need it for. It’s just not really pretty to look at. The bathroom was remodeled sometime in the 80s. With all white tile EVERYWHERE. The gray grout lines are gross and needs a good scrubbing… but since we’re just going to rip everything out. We haven’t bothered… *shrug…
Alright…
Nitey nite!
