So, I got my pool cue yesterday. It’s perfect, exactly what I wanted. It’s a purple with a metallic fleck and shiny silver accents. It’s a players brand graphite cue, I wanted fiberglass but uh, that was a bit out of my price range. The one hubby has is very similar to the one I got but his is actually fiberglass. His was a couple hundred bucks, mine was 60. 🙂

ANYWHO, our signing is tonight. I’m guessing we’ll have our loan money next friday going off what the loan guy said. We’d have it on Thursday but that’s Thanksgiving. 🙂

We’re also supposed to get the roof estimate tonight, I don’t know though because of the weather if they’ll really be able to do it. That’s the big thing we need though because once we know how much the roof costs we know how much we can spend on other house projects. There’s a lot we want to do, there’s fireplaces to finish, trim to put up, floors to refinish, sheetrock to hang in the laundry room. I’d like to get new furniture, ours is second-hand, it’s still in decent shape, it’s just ugly, it’s got these ameoba(sp?) looking things on it. We also need a new entertainment center, something real wood and not k-mart crap. We need a new table in the kitchen, it too was k-mart crap. I’d like to get something that takes the focus off the TV, make the living room a formal sitting area for visiting.

I will be so happy to have the house finished. I picked out what I’m going to do in the downstairs guest bathroom. Bed, Bath and Beyond has the CUTEST Kokopelli bathroom set:

I want to do the downstairs bathroom with that and paint the walls to match. Some kind of stone looking tile would go well too.

I am soooo ready to unleash my creativity on the house. The only thing I’m happy with right now is the living room. And that I’m not happy with the couches or the entertainment center. This is going to be a BLAST. I’ll have to post before and after pictures of all the rooms we redo.

Jeez, I feel so boring. I don’t WRITE anything anymore, just blah blah we’re doing this blah. Maybe I’ll get around to posting some poetry or something later. *shrugs* We’ll see.

But for now, I’ve work to do.

Wow that is beautiful! I used to have a passion for all things Native American, I still kind of do. I have Kokopelli earrings. . .and a dream catcher, a triple one to be exact 😉 Have fun!

I have to re-tile my foyer (where that awful slate is now), and also get that freakin’ kitchen floor done. I HATE that kitchen floor!!!!!
