Ready to Move In???

We went out to the lot last night- they are almost finished with the ceiling joists. Which is cool because now you can get a feel for what size the rooms will actually be. The kids had a lot of fun going into their own rooms, and Caroline has already begun her list of requests.

Duncan told me if I let him put his flip-flops back on he would pay the mortgage (think there's been a lot of house talk around here lately?) on my very own apartment when he turns ten. Sounded like a good deal until he also told me he would be keeping my "big, beautiful new house". Sorry dude, no flip-flops.

I am starting to be able to visualize what it will look like finished - here's the front

Caroline's room is all the way to the left and the garage is all the way to the right.

And this is the back- on the left is the family room and on the right is the master bedroom/bath. The great room and dining room are in the middle. So, it kinda looks like a house. Seems they'll start the roof today.

The old house is almost ready to sell. We're all exhausted and getting cranky- wish I could just give it away but seems that doesn't really work for the banker so we'll continue. Ever notice that when you replace or fix one thing it makes you notice 5 other things that need to be fixed/replaced? Driving me nuts. Pray that some kind soul comes and buys this house the first week it's on the market. Otherwise, we may take Duncan's suggestion and take some sleeping bags and go live at the new house.
