Just about settled...but beginning to worry a bit!










Let me start by saying that "I just love my house!" I know that you shouldn't love things but I don't know what other word would decribe how wonderful it is to look at this house and land...and think that it's mine! (at least for a time) I had always wanted to own a home, but never imagined I would ever have one this amazing! I never would have dreamed of owning this wonderful a home. Would never have gotten here if it weren't for TJ believing in me and giving me to opportunity to follow my dreams and get a job that I just love doing and can make enough money to buy this house and invest in my future. She gave up alot for me and I hope she knows how much a appreciate it everyday....even though she's so far away from me now. DT does a great job of helping me and with MT help it looks beautiful. We have painted a couple rooms and put in a vegetable garden in the back. Have big plans for some improvements that I hope I'll have the opportunity to see in the future too! Going to try to post some pics...
OK, well the pictures worked...although I cannot find the pics of the inside of the house right now. I'll try to post those next time. LOL I sure hope they call me back to work soon, or I get another job, it's been too long and is making me nervous. Last year I was furloughed for just 3 months, but so far this year it's already been close to 6 months! I really don't want to lose my house but am not sure how much longer I can afford it. Trying to do things that will improve it, but it's not a good time to sell a house and I'm running out of time and money. I have an idea for another job that I hope will work out...fingers are crossed!
Well, better get a move on...lots to do today. DT got a front porch swing for us, we finished painting it last night and need some s-hooks to hang it on the front porch today. Man coming to fix the hot tub (or at least tell me how much) between 9 - 12 too. Have only had one cup of coffee but need to straighten up before he gets here. Oh yeah....(especially for KV) it's sooo much easier (meaning - that it's possible) to keep things neat when you have room to put things away and are living with people that help!!!! All those years of feeling like a failure for not being able to get organized...and it wasn't all my fault! Granted I'm still not really an organized person, but when you have time and places...your house can look like you are somewhat neat and organized and it makes you believe that you are...and so you begin to do things that people, who are organized, do...therefore making you an organized person! Does that make any sense? Hope so...
