Trey and I have been doing a lot of work on our home; well, atleast I think so. We have hung new light fixtures (yes, all of which required turning off the power), installed new door knobs, and even some painting (which was very short-lived). Our weekends have been spent "perfecting" our already perfect home! Again, atleast I think so and, my opionion, along with my husbands, is the only one that counts! Ha. :)
We actually have a realtor coming out this week to assess our home. We are hoping that with all we have done, she will be like, "WOW, this house is amazing and ready to sell." Seriously, I don't think I could handle doing anything else at this point unless it were free. And we all know, in many cases free is hard to come by; unless, of course, you are grocery shopping! :)
The kitchen was the last thing that needed painting and it got finished today. YIPPIE! That means since we have moved in we have had our entire house painted with the exception of the dining room which has wall paper. I have yet to take it down because I really LOVE it and the pattern matches the chandelier.
The house sure does look nice or neutral? Both. I don't know about you but when I look at buying a home paint color is the first thing I notice. Neon pink, bright purple and lime green walls aren't exactly the color palettes that this girl would choose from. In fact, I cringe at the sight. So, we have chosen a neutral paint color in the upstairs bedrooms, office and kitchen. Literally, all it would take is for someone to move their stuff in and they wouldn't have to do a thing. Well, unless they wanted neon pink, bright purple, and lime green walls. In that case, knock yourself out-- JUST BUY OUR HOME! :)
With that being said, I am fully confident that if the Lord desires us to be elsewhere He will make a way, where in an economy like this one, others would say, "chances are slim in selling your home."
Remember my last blog post? God operates outside of the human mind and ability because He is the one who is to get ALL the glory and honor. Our sinful nature wants to take credit for everything but if it is outside the human ability then He gets all the credit. Can I just say how comfortable and at peace I am believing that to be true!
This was pretty random and completely oustide of my "normal" blog posts, but I wanted to post this in the hopes that you would pray for the selling of our home and maybe you know someone or you yourself is looking to buy a home in Heron Bay!
Relaxin',
