Painting Complete...For Now

As you may remember, I am playing a game in which I sell unwanted furniture from my current house, storage unit, and in a couple of cases things I pick up by the side of the road, on Craigslist. Then I put the money in an envelope, and slowly but surely buy new stuff on Craigslist for the new house. Having sold two of the ugliest couches in the world yesterday, I earned enough to buy two sets of ladder shelving for the alcove in the kitchen....just like they have in the model home, I have to admit. My shelves are darker to more closely match the cabinets. Here is what one set looks like:




















Meanwhile, they completed painting the inside and outside of the house, at least for now. Of course later they will have to do touch-ups, trim, etc. It is really starting to look good, though.















I have signed up for my home-owners insurance and set the Closing appointment for Wednesday, September 2nd at 3pm. We should have the keys to the house two months from today!















I am leaving for Los Angeles and Seattle on Monday and will be gone for two weeks, during which they expect to install cabinets, tile, and the garage door! Pretty exciting! Jesse is going to take photos which I'll post when I get home.
