Bought our new home yesterday!

Cathy,

I'm so pleased to hear this. I know how long you've been looking, and the disappointments you've suffered.

May the three of you find joy and happiness in your new home for many years to come.

I had to rub my eyes and double check the date.

Yes it is unbelieveable that the whole buying process is now behind us!!! We got the fence man out this am to get a quote on fencing the whole yard. It is going to be nice to let the dogs out & not have to worry about them running off! We are going to have hardwood floors installed in the Living Room, and new counter tops installed in the kitchen, and other than planting a yard full of flowers, shrubs, and trees we will be done! I am ready to just settle in and enjoy at this point!!!

Thanks for all the nice wishes and blessings everyone.

What type of counter tops are you going to get Cathy?

I am leaning towards the beautiful granite, it is on sale at Home Depot right now. Also Bruce (marsh colored) hardwood flooring in the living room. We plan on staying put in this home until we croak and so are not sparing any expense! What an adventure, I wish you lived close by I would hire you. We have a large side by side fridge, it would not fit into the desiganted refrigerator spot in the kitchen (too wide) and Eddie said "while they are installing the new counter tops why don't we just have the entire counter, cabinets, and stove shifted down a few inches in order to accomodate the big fridge?" Good suggestion, but then a carpenter will have to be called in and I can just envision the cost going ^ ^ ^, and so I am guessing we will just have to continue to live with two refigerators in the kitchen!!!

Cathy, you have to remember Cheops Law. Nothing is ever finished on time or on budget. Your best bet is go with the change now while you're doing the remodeling. Changes are real good it would cost more and take longer to go back and do it later.

Shopping for new furniture can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. If you're unsure where to start, take a look at 1StopBedrooms reviews. It's a great resource for getting an idea of the quality of various furniture brands and making an informed decision. You can find more details here: https://www.1stopbedrooms.com/russelyn-gray-platform-storage-bedroom-set . I found it super helpful when I was shopping for furniture for my own home.
