Inside the New House
Wed Jan 12 2005

We had the frame walk with the contractors today and I can't describe the feeling I got walking through the skeleton of our house. The experiences we've had with this are so much different than that of just buying a house.

It struck me as funny to realize that by the time all is said and done and we are able to move into the house, the time that passed between the first thoughts of us doing this and actually moving in is almost as long as a pregnancy. Boy does this ever resemble preparing for a new baby. A BIG one, but a baby nonetheless.

    The house is going to look so nice once it's completed.

    Wow! Progress.

    Do I remember correctly that you said something about being in sometime in March? Maybe earlier.

    RYC: Yes, I went to a massage therapist. And my doctor is an Osteopath. But I think it's a pinched nerve.

    That is exactly how long it takes around here for a house to get put together. I like that you have a nice sized front porch.... Unlike the house next door.....

    Boy does that bring back memories. We moved into our house at just about this stage; not recommended by the way....just had no choice. :)

    It looks like it is going to be a very pretty house. Is the master bedroom over the garage?
