We stopped at the house yesterday to see what had been done and when I walked into the door the place seemed oddly bright even tho the only light coming in was from the opened kitchen door. yesterday, however I could see everything right to the back of the house. All the interior wood had been sprayed with something white and I'm sure that helped along with the fact that there are no walls except the exterior ones.
I stood there for the longest time, my mind trying to tell me something but failing and then the old Poop speaks up and says "It's so small".
BINGO! Was my house ALWAYS that small or perhaps it was only to be dry cleaned and it shrunk under the weight of the water pumped in by the fire department? This house is smaller than the town house, much smaller. Do I care? I've lived in it for 30 years and never noticed it was SO SMALL but the yard is SO BIG plus there will be a deck and we're getting someone to dig up the bamboo rapidly approaching the house and then will spread wildflower seeds all over the churned up yard for next spring. Imagine me sitting on my deck overlooking the wildflowers and the dogs with enough bamboo left to make their life interesting as they explore the yard each morning.
So now I'm thinking I've been getting myself all topsy turvey over refurnishing the house for nothing. The house is small so how much do I need? Whew.. one thing off my mind. Now if only I had an ikea catalog then I could have my house furnished at least in my head. Of course, I have to wait till the insurance company pays off, hopefully it won't be too long.
So that's it for the Tuezday catch up on the great house rebuild of 2012. What will I have to angst over once it's done? I'm sure I will find something.
At least my life isn't boring but, to tell the truth, I think I would enjoy boring, if just for a bit.
Boredom, bring it on.
