Vrommmmm.......

That's the sound of my new jacuzzi tub humming along - it actually works! Yay - you know that's the first thing I would check out.

Big Guy and I received the keys to our new home yesterday, and went out there straight after work last night. It was kind of a rough ride last week - we received the inspection report and Big Guy had some concerns. It obviously suffered from lots of deferred maintenance - you could tell by looking at it, but he had concerns about the wiring and ac unit. We met Thursday at lunch, then he called me later in the day. I finally told him to flip a coin - it's just a house, not a home. So I didn't know if he actually sent the funds until Thursday evening.

After work yesterday, we immediately ran out there, and oh joy! it is SUCH a great place for us!! I am so happy I'd swoon if I knew how. The shop is PERFECT, two spaces for him, and one for me..... The people who moved out even cleaned the place - how wonderful is that? Carpets are vacuumed and the cabinets were wiped down.

We are concerned about watering the pasture. The pump works, but the irrigation system doesn't. But I'm sure we can figure that out.

Man, oh Man - the house is soooo darn wonderful!! It has these mysterious little nooks and crannies......under the stairs, up above the closets (it has vaulted ceilings in the addition part). It also has some closets like Kiefer did - with the drawers under them. Jeesh - imagine closets - I only have two here! There is a huge patio for barbecues - and it's right off the dining area next to the kitchen. Lots of room for my patio furniture, benches, planters.......

Big Guy's agenda today is hoses and sprinklers. I have our special event tonight, so I think I'll skip church and weed some flower beds......and plant......and make ours!

Don't listen to me next week when I'm grumping about moving - I am so deliriously happy I work up at 3:00 a.m. grinning from ear to ear. Love to my sisters - Mo
