New House Tour (Video)
If you get motion sick easily, you might not want to watch this video.
I got motion sick trying to edit enough clips to show you the house – without rambling on an on about random things that happen to bug me about our new house.
It’s really choppy, and kind of random anyway… but here it is.

We’re pretty excited to have a house again. It’s got some “odd” traits that will be interesting to work around but it has a lot of potential.
The movers are coming to unload and unpack tomorrow and Wednesday so we should be living in our new house soon. We just have to move ourselves out of the apartment. We’ve accumulated a lot of junk in the past 4 months. 3 flights of stairs in this heat! This is going to be a FUN weekend – but it’ll be worth it!
So I have a suggestions for the wierd spooky spider closet in your daughters room. I went to someones house the other day and they had a butlers pantry. Well the light was on a censor so when you walked in the pantry the light automatically came on and then turned off when you walked out. Since you have to do some fixing on it anyways I thought I would throw the idea out to you. Love your new home by the way and can’t wait to see what you do with it. You keep saying has potential mean while I am drooling over what you have.
I’m sure the electrician wired before the door was installed and he assumed that the door would swing the other way. It makes more sense. So I’ve shifted my irritation from the electrician to the door installer. LOL But, you are right, not too hard to fix. Just add it to the list. 1002!
He calls it a retaining wall, I call it a basement. LOL
The screened in porch is beadboard. Yeah! They installed it all different directions which is weird but whatever. Tell Jon not to worry about it too much. I haven’t decided firmly on painting the porch. (I most likely will, but just don’t tell him so he doesn’t worry about it. That’s what I do with my husband.)
As for the kitchen, I’m planning a complete reconfigure job so I’m not worried about the DW right now. I am definitely building an island though. I’ve had a design in my head for a few years now for an island. I almost did it in the craft room in IL but knew we would move and didn’t want to leave it. Who knew the owners wouldn’t want the island? Still, Glad I waited because it would have made me cry to cut that island up.
Lots of idea, lots of work and it’s just me so that means lots of time. 🙁 Wish I could just snap my fingers…but don’t we all?
Great video! I can’t wait to see what you do, I know it will be creative and fabulous!
I can’t wait to see what you’ll do to the place. Despite the weird things at least it’s not gross inside decor wise. One bug bomb and your daughter will move right in. But seriously, who puts a light switch behind the door? At least that’s not too tough to fix. I hope there are no more “surprises” – good luck!
