I know, I know, it's been too long again. Please forgive me. Life went nuts and then our internet/computer was being weird (well, it still is) and I finally broke down and hooked our laptop to the internet to get some web surfing done. I found out I really do miss the internet. It's a great way to keep in touch with people.
We have a major life-change coming up (hopefully soon). We are moving. Yes, you heard that correctly. We are looking at houses in a nearby town (where our church and my brother is).
May I stray for just a short while..speaking of my brother. He and his wife just had their baby this past Thursday and now I'm even more excited than I was before to get there. He's the cutest thing and looks so much like his daddy. And he's so quiet I've only heard him cry like once or twice.
Anyway, back to what I'm really blogging about. Tonight we are looking at a house that needs some tlc. It's been neglected, but it has some awesome potential from what we've seen so far. But tonight we get to see the inside in all its completeness and really decide if it's the house for us.
It has only 1 bathroom and two bedrooms, but it has a huge living room, dining room, and kitchen...and the bedrooms are very niced sized. It also has a full, unfinished basement (or so we've been told). Scott talked to the owner this morning to set up our time and she said that people have used part of the basement as a bedroom for kids...so maybe it's not completely unfinished.
It has hard-wood floors at least in one bedroom, a bay window, and a fake fireplace in the living room.....hey it's the ambiance we are looking for...lol. Like I said it needs some tlc, but it seems to be a good sturdy home.
Scott also found out that it was built in the early 1900's and has been in this woman's family since then. It has been passed down and finally came to her and now she has to sell it. Well, what better owners than us. We will have so much pride in our home and will make sure it's well taken care of. Plus I am very sentimental and I love things that are family heirlooms. I have some things that have been passed down to me from older generations, and I treasure those things more than any other items in my house (I said "items" not people).
So that's our life right now. Not much else except looking at homes and waiting for the right one so we can get on with life in a new town. Talk to you later. God bless!
