Another busy day at the new house

Busy day at the new house - we got some things done but still not enough.

Today - installed new lock on back door, still need to drill holes for front & side door deadbolts.

Got kitchen ceiling fan and light installed. Still need under cabinet lights. Partially got the pantry shelves stripped of old contact paper and installed new paper. The old stuff was pretty damn scary.

T moved the lightswitches over into KB's bedroom.

J got his truck emptied so we can start to haul things over. He has so many leaves and things in the back of his truck that it looked like we were hauling compost.

Still need to get the rest of the utilities set up.

We did move a couple of chairs over.

It will be Thursday night before I can work on the move again. I must first get financials out this week. But my heart is set on getting a lot moved next weekend. J will be out of school then and we will start seeing real progress.

Off to get supper cooked and kids bathed.

Oh and the goldfish have survived the weekend of being poked at by the kids. But that pond is pretty yucky.

Hi, just getting started

Yesterday we closed on our new home. 21 years of marriage and we finally bought a house. Even after all this time, it was hard on J to believe we can afford it. I'm more like how can we not?
The kitchen is done in Coca-Cola theme. Very exciting...not. I'll be taking down the C/C border and the pantry door and bringing in a lot of yellow and white to tone down the red. I think the red could be cool once the appliances and the curtains tone it down but J doesn't want to see red...something about seeing red at work all the time.



I really need to get up and pack or sit here and work on prep work on my financials. Instead I'm starting a blog. I shouldn't be doing this...
