Almost Done!!

Well, we're getting close to being done with the house., We've done the paint and stain and they are going to work on the floors soon. It is really exciting, but has been stressful too. Cliff has been away a lot for work, so I have had to make some decisions on my own. I always end up calling him and asking him a million questions because I'm afraid of making a mistake that he will hate. I did make a mistake with the original paint color. Luckily, they had only painted the garage and as soon as Cliff saw it he called me and said it wasn't going to work. It didn't look that color on that little sample he painted!! I rushed over there and as soon as I saw the color, I knew we had to change it. Luckily, we only had to eat the cost of the paint since they hadn't painted the whole house yet. If they had, we'd have had to pay the labor twice too. Anyway, the new color is much better and closer to what I had in mind. Whew!! I will be so glad when we are finished. What with the retirement and work and everything else going on things have been pretty stressful. I still don't even have a definite job lined up and I'm getting pretty nervous about it. Cliff is pretty supportive and reassuring though so that helps a lot. I'm sure things will calm down once we get moved and settled in, so I am anxious for that day to come. Plus, the weather is warming up, so we will be able to spend a lot more time hanging out with our friends. They can't wait for us to move in either. Our place is going to be the entertainment center. Cliff's media room is going to be awesome. The guys are definitely going to enjoy watching sports in there. It'll be great. Everything is working out just the way we planned, so far. We've been waiting for this day for so long and now it's almost here. Yay!!
