So it has been quite a while since I posted - and a lot has happened. We sold our house on South Peru Street at the end of June after much hassle. Geez... let's just say, you try to be nice and you get taken advantage of in the long run. But it's all said and done, and our lovely check cleared (thank god!).
As for the new house, we got our loan committment letter last week, and we are moving right along. We will order the house next week, for the simple fact that Ryan has to do some finish work inside and he leaves the first week of October for Sgt. School (so he can get a promotion with the army).
But for me, I have been slowely picking out colors and figuring out decorating schemes, as well as purchasing items, since I am currently without any heavy bills to pay. Color schemes so far:
(Olympic paint colors):
Living Room - Spiced Vinegar (a nice beige, oatmeal color) C14-13
Kitchen - Toss up between Shady Knoll (green C65-6) or Warm Mahogany (a nice warm red/violet color - C31-6)
Master Bedroom - Grape Leaves (C67-6), Holly Leaf (C61-6), Basil Pesto (my fav, B65-6), and a wall possiably in Black Magic (D58-6). The room is QUITE large, so a dark color will work.
Master Bath - Royal Palm (C62-3) or Delicate Mist (C61-1), both a light bright green (think along the lines of very very light green), and towels - EGGPLANT! Yes, eggplant. I will be picking those up tomorrow at JCPenny, can't wait!!
That's all for now!
