This weekend we moved into the house. I think that this was our fastest move yet. By 12:30pm Saturday afternoon everything was in the house except for the garage stuff that had to be left because there wasn’t room. We had been moving boxes every time that we went to the house so all of that stuff was there already. In the past we had to move stuff and boxes all at once.
I have been very happy with how everything has come together. The only room that I wasn’t sure about the arrangement was the family room since the design is kinda funky. However, the way that it had to be arranged (due to the location of the cable outlet) turned out quite nice.
I am very happy with how the color choices made fit with all of our stuff. The bathroom turned out smashing and our bedroom is just gorgeous! I feel nothing but comfy and cozy in our living room and could spend hours staring at our red accent wall in the kitchen. It is odd to hear people speak of my bold color choices because I really don’t think that they are that bright. The colors warm the house up and just make you want to spend time there. Each room draws you in more than the last.
Now we face the dubious task of shopping. Since we have two spare beds I need to pick out another comforter set. There is the issue of lighting. There are not really any lights on the ceiling so we have to buy lamps for some of the rooms. I have had my eye on a set of lamps from Bed Bath & Beyond. We have to find window treatments for all of the other rooms now. The blinds are nice but, I want something to go over them.
It is crazy how smoothly every thing has gone. The only SNAFU so far has been a mix-up with a programmable thermostat. Although it caused a lot of stress at the time, it was an easy fix and it wasn’t even our fault! Already it seems like we have lived in our house forever and we have never lived anywhere else. I hope that I don’t get so comfy that I forget that we have an apartment to clean.
I am content
