Adventures In Home Buying...

So holy crap - I close on my house this Friday. I can hardly believe it's coming to fruition. I've kind of been in denial just thinking something would go wrong - but it looks like it's all gonna happen - so tonight I've gone into house mode.


What's that entail you say? A grand ole trip to Nebraska Furniture Mart. I used to look forward to shopping for furniture - thinking it was "fun". Tonight - all by myself looking to furnish my home - was not fun. In fact - I was so sick of thinking about options - I just made a decision and got one of those, one those, 2 of those and oh ya - throw one of those in too.


I felt like I was going to throw up. I still do. But I'm also thinking how cute my new home will be and I will have not once had to compromise for an ugly piece of furniture or a paint color I didn't like. So there. :)


So without further adieu - I share my newest home furnishing purchases with you :)



Couch for upstairs. I didn't get it in this color though as this is the color I'm painting my walls. It will be in a darker brown like seen on the pillows. The downfall - I had to special order it so it won't come in until like December or something crazy.

I got a night stand and a dresser and oh yes - a dining room table but no photos. Yet. To come - I'll post later - or you can all come visit!

More to come. Here's a rundown of the schedule incase you really care:

Close - Friday, October 9

Paint - Sat - Wed

Carpets Cleaned - Thurs

MOOOVE - FRIDAY!
