Serendipity Home

This & That

     We go tomorrow to see if we can work out a deal on this house.  It's less than half the size of the place we rent right now, but it's very cute and, with some considerable downsizing, I think we could make it work.  All depends on what kind of payments the realtor is willing to accept.  It's not a perfect house....the basement was very small and a little damp  (that can be easily fixed), it has fairly low ceilings, not as much storage space as I'm used to and, while the kitchen is bigger than the one we have now, there isn't as much cupboard space.  There's something about it, though.....  It's bright and open.  I can see it being home.  The backyard is huge,but the fence needs repaired in a couple of spots.  Plenty of space to expand if we wanted.  So we shall see.  If not this house there will be others.  Just need patience.

     My honey, Earl, helped a friend clear out a house and was given a white leather sofa and loveseat.  I can't wait to get them home. They will look so nice in our living room.

     I made a big pot of Wisconsin cheese soup.  Yummy!  It is sooooo good!!  I love making soups on days like this.  Makes you all warm and cozy feeling.  And the 80 year old mother of a friend gave us a jar of her homemade plum jelly.  Tastes like a little bit of summer. 

Hope it went well!

Hope everything went well with your house looking!
We have three children, and on this last move to the country (2 and half years ago) we went from a four bedroom, two bath, 2500 sq ft home to a 3 bedroom, one bathroom, 1500 sq ft. home. It's a little cramped, but we love the closeness it brings to our family. It also needs much work!
Congrats on the leather furniture!
