we are in full renovation mode at the house. dave is on the final stage of re-finishing our hardwood floors and i am on the third coat of paint on the woodwork upstairs. i am anxious to get all this stuff done and we have only gotten to half of what we planned on doing before we moved in. i am hoping to paint the walls of two of the bedrooms before friday. but that means i have to finish woodwork first. and that seems like a never ending job.
there are too many little things around the house that seems to be part of the old owners. i want this house to be fully ours... and that includes paint colors and light fixtures. i want to demolish and change. make it all my choices. our home.
i want too many things. things that we can't afford to change right now. better tile in the bathroom. new kitchen countertops and a new sink. new blinds for the living room. it is a vision in my head that i want realized now.
i am sure that as we get stuff in... our stuff... that it will feel more like home. it needs to stop smelling like others and start smelling like us. i hate walking in and smelling them. i want to walk in and smell home. i will have to bake some cookies right away when we move in.
