For Sale



In 4 days, this place will be up on the market.
I am not even thinking about the bigger picture at the moment. I am just glad to be able to say that I am well over half way done with cleaning and organizing.



I have been locked up in this place the past two weekends....and every time I walk through here, I see so much more to be done.



It is amazing how much dust, dirt, and grime builds up over the course of 2 years...and pretty nasty to think how I was able to avoid it this long.



Matthew says that if no one wants to buy our house in the next few months, the worst that has happened is that I cleaned the place up. I think that is easy for him to say.

Right now, the mess is hiding in the cupboards and closets. I lack the motivation to get working on that, which is what brings me to the blog.



I think this was probably the 15th townhome Matthew and I walked through about 2.5 years ago. We were talking through what we liked about it as well as what we liked about the one half a block away. I told Matthew I would agree to buy this one as long as we got new countertops and a new oven.



At least we got new countertops.



I am a little fearful people will shy away from these jalapeno pepper walls. I love them though, especially because they hold the memory of Matthew suprising me and redecorating the room while I was gone one weekend.



Sometimes my gut tells me that we will be here for a few more years yet and other times I look ahead to the future and we are not living here. Only time will tell me what really happens.

Matthew JUST walked in the door and is oohhing and ahhing over the work that I've done. He just said "OMG!" about 5 times, hahaha....what a blessing.

  1. Paul just asked where you would live if you sold the place. And I told him we could be a big happy family this summer!
