This pink house

Well, we bought a house. We picked up the keys last night.

Adrienne and I jokingly call it “The House that Logic Bought”. It for sure isn’t our dream house, but it would be ridiculous not be overjoyed to be buying a house at all.

We really wanted to buy a Craftsman bungalow (of which there are tons around here) but we couldn’t find one that was big enough, or in a nice enough neighborhood, or that wouldn’t require every minute of every day to make livable.

So instead, we fled to the suburbs. Consider this a “before” gallery. I am going to take some more pictures and create a “before and after” page. The “after” I most look forward to is the resurfacing of the pink bathtub and tile to a nice non-vomit-inducing white.

So, we are going to be very busy for the next little while, but we are very excited!

I took the gallery down, it was boring anyway.

    I am sad now. I will never own a home. I will never have an apartment, either. I moved to a bad place. My family will starve while the Penrods’ biggest worry is the color of their shower tiles. Congratulations.

    You and your family can move in with us if you will be in charge of keeping the grout clean ;)
