This is a Story of a House: Reason to look forward to the new house #1
http://thisisastoryofahouse.blogspot.com/2013/09/reason-to-look-forward-to-new-house-1.html
This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Saturday, September 7, 2013. Reason to look forward to the new house #1. So this morning my two sisters were over because we're hitting the road for a trip to my grandmother's. There we were. Three fully grown women aged 24-28, crowding around an 8x10 mirror, in our home's only bathroom, and the hubs walks over and says he has to use it, and it hits me. 1: new house has three bathrooms!

Wishing all of my fellow Ryan Bloggers who are behind me in the process a quick journey. It’s wonderful, I promise. And worth the wait, the stalking, the gritted teeth, the second-guessing and the ulcers about watery subfloors and broken windows! 14 comments on “ CLOSED! July 5, 2013. July 6, 2013. July 5, 2013.

And see that we will be just fine. Sorry to be so introspective! I think I’m just a little overwhelmed right now. Change, even good change, takes some time to get used to.🙂 I will post the obligatory pictures of unpainted rooms with tons of piles of boxes soon. Thanks for your support, all. I appreciate it.

“Still alive!” she mumbled weakly… | Avalon Building and Blogging

Avalon Building and Blogging. Can I really care this much about flooring and faucets? Apparently, I can. Because everyone wants to know what you picked, and how much it was.). 8221; she mumbled weakly…. I know now why bloggers seem to disappear as soon as they close. There is simply so much to do, and the house is such a wreck, there’s really no point in taking pictures. I’ve taken some, and will post below. If you are currently in the rainiest summer you have ever experienced, listen to your gut and TUR...

I’m beat, just beat. And we haven’t even officially moved in yet! It’s time for some Coors Light and Aleve. Ah, moving! Already wondering where to put the Christmas tree. The stairs. Definitely better than they were, but I still wish they were a bit darker. My closet. Sigh. The rest of my closet.🙂. One of the re...

30 day check in…already? | Avalon Building and Blogging
https://avalonbuildingandblogging.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/30-day-check-in-already
Avalon Building and Blogging. Can I really care this much about flooring and faucets? Apparently, I can. Because everyone wants to know what you picked, and how much it was.). 30 day check in…already? Someone had warned us that the drywall is like tissue paper, and I have to agree. It does seem to “bruise” fairly easily. I assume it’s the paint, and when paint ourselves (with rollers and a proper layer of paint), it will be a bit sturdier. Back door paint is streaky and needs to be redone. I thought I wa...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Tuesday, September 10, 2013. Neighborhood Creeping and Our Lot. So I had to travel this morning for work and decided on my way home to swing by the lot and see if anything new was happening. We're not expecting anything, but hey, you never know! They broke ground on Aug 31 (I think) and have the whole thing framed! Here's our lot with our neighbor's progress in the background:. September 10, 2013 at 5:56 PM. It is about ...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Friday, September 6, 2013. Week 1: A Summary. Sorry if I seem scattered but this is going so fast! A week ago, we had just signed our purchase agreement, outlining some of our concepts for things we thought we would want in the house. Yesterday, after about a week of intense document collection (thank God for paperless banking! Oh, and we'd be living there before the end of December! Now, that's pressure. We drove around...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Monday, September 2, 2013. As I sit here procrastinating an evening run, reading as many Ryan homebuilding blogs I can get my fingers on, and marveling at the amazing stack of paperwork I'm surrounded by, I thought maybe it's time I jumped on the Ryan Homes building process bandwagon. And so, welcome to our journey! Hubs and I marking our territory! September 6, 2013 at 7:44 PM. So jealous of your lot size! The hubs and ...
