We don't close until mid-October but things are looking great! I thought about blogging more about the house, but then thought, nah, people are going to see it when they're here for the wedding. But not everyone can come to the wedding (like LF, who is due tomorrow with baby FH).
House-buying seems likely to be momentous to the people doing it and ho-hum to everyone else. So if this bores you, let me know what subject you request, and I will write a post on that!
Here are some details about the house, à la
the daisy conceit of I Love It / I Love It Not.
paint | I do love the paint in the kitchen (red!). I don't love the paint in the second/back bedroom (pink).
front yard | I love the sour/pie cherry tree. I don't love the lawn.
master bedroom | I love that it has french doors opening out onto the deck in the back yard. I don't love how big it is (it's big).
bath | I love the jetted tub underneath the skylight. I don't love the standard, Western toilet.
kitchen | I love the gourmet Jenn-Air dual fuel range/oven. I don't love the sink situation. Let me explain. The kitchen, like most kitchens, has one sink. That sink is a double sink, one side deep and one side shallow, which is fine. I don't love that it doesn't have two separate sinks. I also don't love that the one sink it has doesn't have a foot pedal.
water feature | I like the sound of the back yard fountain, and I love that you can hear it from the master bedroom, but to LOOK at it is another story; I'll just say, Bjorn calls it "The Puking Cat".
If you are thinking some of this sounds like "what I don't like about a million dollars is that it's not two million dollars", well, that's about right.
