Well it's been quite a long month so far, and we're not even done yet.
Last Thursday, May 19, Richard and I closed on our house! We're now officially home owners, and we're tackling everything head on.
There have been some unexpected developments... such as the wallpaper someone apparently painted over in the kitchen. We've already demolished the bathroom, it was the original 50's pink bathroom and while it was cute... well, it needed some updating and it turned out that every wall had water/moisture damage because the room was never properly vented. So we're tucking in and getting to work, which is just a round about way of saying we'll be super busy for the next month and a half.
We'll take a brief reprieve next Sunday to go to the first Maxwell Street Days of the 2011 season. And I am so excited for the official beginning to the flea market season. Maybe now that we have a house we'll finally find that chrome kitchen table we've been searching for.
Hopefully I'll get some photos and updates about the house up in the coming weeks, but I'm not making any promises.
