Well after a year of waiting, first home seller backing out of short sale, second one taking forever, me and my girl finally got the keys and slept in our first home last night! Moved in around 10pm when the seller finished moving out. All we had on the truck was our mattress and a gym bag full of clothes and hygiene. Felt real good waking up there this morning even if it was just a big vacant house. Have tons of work to do today but I'm excited!

Best part is my other baby FiNALLy had a home of it's own!!

Thanks a lot guys. Been a real long day. Been up since 7am and now finally calling it a night at 10:30pm on day one. Tomorrow is another day full of work for me. Best feeling in the world being able to say I own a home. Can't wait to settle in and be able to enjoy it.


And btw don, figured I'd post here cause I'll be posting all my projects on this thread. Starting with the main entrance tomorrow.

Been real busy the first few days cleaning and repairing small stuff around the house. In the middle of painting the ugly green the owner had in the kitchen and living room and dining room with an almond color.
