Woo, got the keys!

We went and did the final walkthrough on the house tonight, and ended up walking away with the keys. We're closing at 12:30 tomorrow. I have to work, but I can't imagine doing too much at work. I doubt my mind'll be there.

The house was about what I was expecting. It looked significantly larger without all of those people's huge furniture in there. The back yard is really nice, and I'm really looking forward to getting out there and working on it. The walls are all so plain and drab, and there are little holes everywhere where there were pictures hung and stuff. We're going to have to do a bunch of patching, and a shit-load of painting. it's going to look amazing once we're done though. And, we've got TWO MONTHS to work on it. :D

I can't wait. Some of you should come by and see the before picture. hehe.

Wowsies

So, I'm sitting here on the sofa watching a program on how fish sticks are made.

Amazing.

We're closing on our house in less than TWO DAYS. I can't believe it. Also, I can't wait. It should be so much fun to get in there and do some work on the place. :D That's about all I've been thinking about lately.

Greetings from the home front.

Yeah, I'm sitting on my sofa getting ready to play WoW again. I haven't played recently.

That's about all, we ran a shit-load of errands today to pick up a butt-load of cleaning supplies and some food for next week. (The food was for next week, the cleaning supplies are more for next weekEND after we close on the house. :)

It's like 90 degrees outside today, it's insanely hot. I just want to stay in here in the air conditioner and not do anything. Although that would get somewhat boring. :)

I know, I know.

It's so spotty when I get a chance to post. It's really crazy. I guess if I were more consistant with it, it would be more fun to read.

So, let's see. Been married for a month and 10 days now. It's about the same as it was before, nothing really changed. It took me forEVER to get used to wearing my ring, but I feel sorta wierd withOUT it on now. So, I guess that makes it pretty official. I would say "I love the married life!" and I do, but it really isn't much different than it was before. :D

We're closing on our HOUSE on Friday (next Friday), June 1st. I can't wait, it should be a total blast. I'm really looking forward to having something to really work on and "customize" or whatever. It's a pretty nice house, built in '92. It's a 2 story colonial out in the "far west end" near ridgefield and john rolfe parkway (for those of you familiar). It's all white (as far as the walls, AND the outside go), and it has dark green shutters. We're going to leave the outside pretty much as-is for a while, though it's going to need to be re-sided sometime in the future.

The inside is getting a facelift though. We're repainting pretty much everything. It has new carpeting in the family room (sort of the normal tan-beige color). The dining room and entryway/hall is a hardwood. The Kitchen and eat/in area is a linoleum tile, but it's not too bad looking. The entire upstairs is also newly carpeted. It's about 1500 sq. feet, and should prove to be quite an adventure in adulthood. haha. Although I'm a few years into my career, married, and just about to buy a house, I still feel like a kid half the time. :P Nutzo.

Anyway, that's what's going on in my life. And, I guess that's all that matters, since it IS my journal, after all. :P
