Well, I made it through my first night at the new house. Yesterday is a huge blur. Lots of people came to help, and I got to watch AJ while Tony and Bobbi went to dinner. He gave me two little pictures he made (ummm… or… Bobbi made) for my new house. Such a sweet little boy.
Mom and I got LOTS done after the crew left. We were able to get my bedroom mostly set up, along with the kitchen and the living room. All of the extra boxes are in the spare room upstairs and the dining room. It’s nice to have some things put together and organized. And it’s nice to have the boxes hidden from view.
Mom stayed over with me for the first night. Tony and Bobbi brought us burgers for dinner and we stopped at Walmart and picked up the newest Twilight Movie and some icecream. It was a nice night. Sleeping was tough for all of us, I think… except Roxy. But we will get used to it!!
Here’s to new beginnings!

Well, it’s officially moving day! Friends and family are set to arrive at 10am. I have much to do before they get here, but I wanted to write this first. I can’t believe that I’ve slept my last sleep in this apartment, this home, that my mom grew up in. The move is exciting, and…
Pretty irrelevant to this DIY blog, but very much a milestone in my life, is the sale of my previous home in Scranton. On May 25, 2012 I sold the house to my neighbors who live across the street. I couldn’t be happier for them, and relieved and excited to move on to this next…
Today Shawn and I installed the TV wall mount in my living room. Well, Shawn installed it, and I held things and handed them to him. Basically, the trick to doing the wall mount is running the wires behind the wall so you don’t see them coming from your components within the entertainment stand to…
I spent my WHOLE 3-day MLK weekend tiling my kitchen backsplash! I’ve had the tile since October of last year, so I was so excited to actually take it out of the box and get it on the wall! What Blooms with What? Never know what to plant together? Find out with this FREE Plant…
Last summer was T-H-E W-O-R-S-T in my house. Incredibly warm, muggy, stuffy, sweaty, gross. All of those words. I muddled through the summer, saved my pennies (well, those I didn’t glue to my floor, haha), and this year was able to get a ductless air conditioner installed! This post covers some options that are available…
Today was the big day!!! The closing of my house. January 21, 2012. 1-21-12. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this date I wrote it down so many times. The house is officially mine. I have the keys!!! My dad took me out for lunch after the closing, and tonight we are going to Cafe…
