A Room with a View

Like most everyone else, we need more room in our house. We are addressing this a few different ways. First we have been busily dejunking lately which has been great. Aaron sold his old air hockey table, projector, etc and has even taken some loads to the DI of his own volition. In fact, I can't keep up with him!

Second, we have had a contractor come look at our house who will give us some options for adding onto it. When? - we have no idea. He was really prompt to come over and look at the house but that was a few weeks ago and we haven't heard anything since.

Third, we have looked at a few houses to get an idea of what we could get in our price range if we moved. So far nothing is perfect. We saw one with the most amazingly large back yard that backed a nature preserve forest with a stream in it but the house was about as bad as it could get. Then there is the house I am currently in love with. It would meet all of our needs. It has huge windows, a nice backyard (that you can see from the huge kitchen windows). It has a playhouse in the back, a laundry chute, two sinks int he kitchen, a double door entry with no stairs which would be great in case I fall and break my leg again. :) (After all, it is probably just a matter of time ...) It has a covered patio, a deck with hot tub that is just outside the Master Bedroom via french doors. It is also two blocks from a park with a playbround and tennis court. BUT it has a few tragic flasws: a busier street than we like and sloped driveway (very unrealistic in Utah winters). Oh well. I just had to talk about it so you can share my momentary mourning. I will get over it and find another home. But I just have to revel in the heartbreack for a little while :).
