It's been about a month since we got the call that the sellers moved out (2 weeks early) of the house we were buying. It was exciting, but also there was the "oh shit" moment, realizing that we weren't ready to move!
We had the same realization about 4 months earlier when a realtor approached us about selling our condo. Thankfully my parents took us in and we were on our way to a fresh start, in a new house with some land and room to work and grow our businesses.
This is the view from the back of our 7 acres to the back of the house and pole barn.
The house needs a little work...
Some wallpaper needs to come down...
Some rooms need to be painted...
But first, the garden needs to be tilled.
And our workspaces needed to be set up. That was priority #1. So we are set up and will work on other projects as we can. Some things like prepping the garden can't wait, but stripping walllpaper can be done a rainy day.
I did take some time to trim and smell one of the lilacs today.
Have a wonderful weekend!
