Sorry I have been a little lagging in posts this year so far. I promise at some point to get disciplined again with a picture and thoughts everyday- maybe :). Nothing too exciting has been going on around here. Mostly working, generally cool weather, Nigel being needy, etc. We did get in our last shipment of new blinds for our house. I'll definitely post pictures once they are up. I'm very excited. When we first moved into our house, we bought blinds for our bedroom, the guest bedroom, and the office because they didn't have any blinds (which could be kind of awkward). Now we are updating the blinds in the part of the house that everyone sees.
We've kind of gotten back into a house fixing mood, which is good because we took a break for a while. Hopefully we have Philip's dad (Philip is a guy in our small group) coming to look at our kitchen/pantry in hopes to put in a washer and dryer hookup in the pantry. Then, Bob (also in our small group) is probably coming over on Sunday to take a look at our house to help us decide what is most important to fix for resale value. I was looking at house values the other day and I think that if we sold our house now, even after fixing it up, we still would lose a bit of money. The sad part about the situation is that if we lose money, that means the market is likely still bad, which means we will get a better deal on another house, but the opposite is also true. If we make money on our house, the market will probably be back up and a future house would be more expensive. Ahhh- what do you do? I guess we're taking steps to figure that out. Maybe if we stick around Denver, we'll keep the house until it does raise in value. Who knows? It's fun to fix it up for now and enjoy our hard work!
