We closed!

We are new home owners as of Friday. Now the fun begins... Gary has been busy sealing grout lines (we have quite a bit of ceramic tile, so that's not a quick project) and yesterday he started painting the nursery. I've been cleaning out construction dust from cabinets and doing shelf liner in the kitchen. There are a lot of cabinets, so that's time consuming also.

We're going to continue with projects for a few weeks and will hopefully move in after a few weeks, depending on how things go. We're painting a few rooms so we'd like to get that done before I move in since I shouldn't really be inhaling paint fumes. It's easier to paint empty rooms anyway, so I think it will work out well. We wanted to paint the garage floor with those cool speckled paint chips, but we're learning that it needs to be warmer for that, so that is going to be a pain. That would definitely be nice to do before anything is moved in there. I think it will need to be around 70 for at least 2 consecutive days in order to do that, so it's possible, but not sure how likely.

We'll be busy for the next few weeks for sure. It's exciting though.
