Turning House into Home

Right now I’m working on recopying the “Spread the Word” list directory into the post from my site. I was trying to do an update on the list this morning because it’s been several months since I checked on it, and the entire content of my post wound up disappearing instead. I’m not sure what caused it.

I’m taking a break from unpacking boxes. We seem to have a never-ending supply. I’m trying to find a couple of things that we have to turn into the old apartment complex in order to be done with them; but they seem to have disappeared completely. It’s very frustrating. I want to be done with them. I’m mentally done with them already…but this is hanging over our head at the minute.

Other things are going well. Hubbie and I are trying to decide which upgrade we’re going to do to the new home first. We lack a washer and dryer at the minute, but we also want to do work in the back yard so that we can fence portions off and let the munchkin play out there without so much risk of him running out into the street. I think the washer and dryer are winning at the minute though. I think the people who have the house next door to us are doing some major renovations. The place was for sale when we bought this one, and had been on the market for a bit as well, but looked in pretty grungy condition. I’m not sure if they’re new owners who are just bustling away to do real estate flipping or if it’s the original owners who were waiting to do all the work for whatever reasons. The house is a lot cleaner now, and they’ve painted it bright orange. I feel bad for them right now because this place is now looking a bit dingy given the yard is completely over grown as we haven’t had chance to tackle that yet. I didn’t think it looked so bad and then I went for a walk down the street and it looks like someone dropped a jungle over our house.
