From the minute I walked into the house I loved it. I even loved all of the ridiculous wallpaper.
Then... we started moving. I slowly began to trade my love for the house, for fear and anxiety. I wanted out of our tiny condo for so long, I thought moving would be this awesome thing. I was wrong. It's big, and scary and a HUGE adjustment. I had no clue how much work and emotional moving can be. Who knew I needed to mentally prepare myself for this move?
Thanks to a very long conversation with my Realtor/old friend, I found out my extreme anxiety and buyer's remorse was par for the course. Thanks to her reassurance, I have relaxed... and yes, started working on the next renovation project... the tiny pink potty!
The whole thing needs to be gutted! Except the super deep soaking tub. LOVE IT FYI: The room is so tiny, that it has a louver door! We are going to fix that first! |
That filthy carpet was on the stairs for FIFTY years! 5.0. Fifty. I dry heaved when the carpet people pulled it out. SOOOOO GROSSSSSS!!!! |
THAT is my mailbox! LOVE IT!!! Everyday the mailman scares the crap out of me. I'm sure someone is breaking in. |
