Thanks everyone! I still have so much to do but at least I am no longer embarassed when people stop by.

Oh BT thank you! Josie has been a wonderful girl lately - still has puppy 'WOO HOO' moments. She has been extra clingy and cuddly this past week. She still has a bit of growing to do and should end up between 80 and 95 lbs.

Miss Bri, I am late to this house-warming, but I absolutely love what you've done with your home, all the right things to make it yours (and Josie's)! You sound so positive and upbeat and I'm happy to hear that. You are SUCH a special person (I know this) and you deserve only the best. Wish I were closer so I could bring you cookies or something, cause I would!

Wow, MissBri! I am so impressed with your redecorating! You've accomplished so much in such a short period of time. What a nice place to come home to every day. And a cute little face to greet you. :)

Miss Bri I dont know how I miss these threads so I am VERY late to the housewarming.
But all I can say is its happy and charming and warm. AND it was like a blast from the past for me, your kitchen cabinets are just like we had when I was a kid. I loved that color!
So glad you are feeling better! We miss you on here, Come back to the bannings! :hug:

Thanks everyone!

Naters I may take you up on that - I've always wanted to visit to Aiken SC and I love decorating

Sannois - I feel loved, thank you


Snaffle - there were many many days in the past 5 years when I did not want to come home and was mortified when friends stopped over. After a short time the friends stopped coming by. So this truly is a new start for my new life and I am LOVING it!

BH2 - thanks honey - she is a ticket....

Miss Bri-
I can relate to not wanting to have people stop by. I always felt like I had to make excuses for my old house. I had no place for company to sit, have a cup of coffee, etc. I always felt like I had to explain to anyone that came by why I had bought my house. It got old.
It's great to finally have a house I can be proud of! I love everything about my new house.
Today the washer/dryer is being delivered and installed. It goes in a large closet right outside the bedroom, so handy there! The new flat screen TV gets hooked up tonight hopefully.
My Dad taught all his kids at a young age to be savers. This house was built with money I had been saving and investing since I was 16. I am now 48. Last night I was lying on the couch, looking around and thinking, "I earned this house!"
It feels so good to finally be in my forever home. :clap:

Miss Bri-
Your house looks great and I need you to come up here and help me with my new one!
My house is about half way painted, and I am out of money. It's going to be a while before I can do more, because I need to pay the credit card debt down that I incrued while building.
Keep up the good work, and please everyone, post pictures of your home improvement projects, I love to see them! It's very inspiring.
Also, I love the little spot for Josie. Does she hang out in there often?
