 First house...
« Thread Started on Nov 20, 2007, 11:44am »

I can't wait for us to get into our new-old house!! we're supposed to close on Dec. 31st, but the current owners are open to doing it sooner. Lots of decorating, and fixin' up to do...first thing we're going to do---re-do the hardwood floors, that way we don't have to wonder where to put the furniture...then it's on to painting...then I think we can move in... ;D

The floors here need to be redone. It looks like all they did was wax 'em so it shouldn't be too hard to redo. They're in pretty good shape, really---don't know when that little project will get started. [image] The tricky part will be---where do we go with all this STUFF??? :P
