I am at home today
enjoying Snow Day #21! I have loved ALL 21 of them! I love being at home…sometimes
I am very productive and sometimes I watch 27 episodes of Law and Order…but
whatever!
We are settling into our new house. I love love love it! I am typically very
picky about things. For example, we
drove to Kansas to look at a SUV once. I
really liked it….I did not like the salesman.
He was rude, cocky, etc. We drove
the car, liked the car, and almost bought the car. However, right at the last minute I lost it!!
I refused to buy it, something just wasn’t right. As you can imagine, house shopping usually
goes about the same way. Not this time
though!
The tire shop is doing very well and being an hour away just
wasn’t realistic anymore. We started
looking for places. Our first stop was a
brand new house in a subdivision. It was
a beautiful house, but we just weren’t made for a subdivision. We like
seclusion and space for all of our treasured possessions (aka Brad’s junk). The
search continued…. We looked online, drove around and looked at hundreds of
houses. Finally, we found a house and 10
acres about 5 miles out of town. The
first time we looked at the house it had snowed a ton, seems to be a pretty
common trend this winter. We both loved
it! We immediately knew it was ours!
Fast-forward a couple months, we are here and loving it!
It’s cozy, perfect, and ours! I am enjoying decorating and putting our own spin
on it! This week I have been trying to convince Brad to hang some pictures for me. He told me on Monday that we worked so hard
to paint all the walls, that it would be better if we left them blank!
WHHAATTT?! No Way!
With that being said, I haven’t left this lovely house since
Saturday. The bad thing is I don’t even
care! I am secretly hoping I get one more day off.
