New Place





































I thought that since I have pretty much settled in, I would take a few pictures and post them.
The first picture closest to the writing is where you first walk into my house.
Next picture up from writing is the living room and dining room to the right when you walk into the house.
After coming around the corner from the dining room to the left is my small little kitchen.
Then after going through the kitchen you go down a couple stairs and you can either go outside or, next picture, down the stairs into the basement.
Let me tell you a little something about this basement. First of all, it hadn't been cleaned since the owner was living here in 1953 (unknown is the date, but it was NASTY). There was so much dirt, trash, and, yes, even dinosaur poo -- okay, I think it was actually cat poo, but it was so dry and disgusting that I know it must have been there A LONG TIME. It took me 6 hours just to clean the basement, washing machine inside and out, and dryer. My dryer door is broken so I just lean a chair up against it to keep it shut. I was afraid to turn on my dryer until I had taken it apart from the back and vacuumed the whole thing, including the vent thingy and screwed the back back on. And I had 2 leaks with the washing machine, which I fixed myself -- yea, you can go ahead and call me Ms. Bob Villa.
On with the pictures and back upstairs. ....
Once you enter my house, if you go to the left there is my room (with Gussie looking so snuggled on the bed.)
My tinny, tiny bathroom. Actually, I get ready at my kitchen island because there's no room in the bathroom. I do my hair and my makeup right there in the living room.
And finally my office (top picture.)
So there you have it. In the words of Ty Pennington "Welcome Home Ward Family, Welcome Home." (By the way, I hate Ty Pennington.)
