House Update

I have been living in my house for exactly 1 week now, and loving every minute of it! And, with Minnie around, I feel that much more like a homeowner! Also, it has been great having Minnie right off the bat because she is already so protective of me, and whenever we hear a creak in the house (and I get scared) she runs out of the room growling and barking...it's great.

There is still quite a bit of painting to be done, but with an awesome family like mine, who is always willing to help out, it is coming along pretty quickly. my sis, Laura, met me in Anchorage yesterday. We got to go to lunch and then went to her Design Firm's (that she works for, or used to work for) warehouse. Her boss gave me a sweet deal on an island for my kitchen and a new cabinet for my bathroom. I am probably one of the only starter houses that has THE top of the line cabinets in my bath and kitchen! I guess it pays off to have a sister as a designer (in multiple ways actually, she has been the vision behind every room in the house)!

But, for some reason, I think that my house has some sort of weird dream-inducing vibe. I have been having the craziest dreams lately....and I don't like it! I told Laura that if my dreams are in any way premonitions, she needs to make sure that Jeremy doesn't go near ANY bodies of water anytime soon, because I dreamed the other night that he drowned! It was horrible! I think I did that thing where you start crying in your sleep, and it wakes you up...I hate that. Anyways, for now, Jeremy is healthy and happy, but I will keep you posted on my psychic abilities (I also dreamed that I got back together with 2 different exes...at the same time, and they both asked me to marry them) Freaking weird. Since that is not going to happen, I am assuming I am no where near psychic.

I will post pics of the progress on my house later!

That is very exciting about your house. I was watching an HGTV show last night on huge houses and it made me think of sneaking around with you in the house that Neeley got married in, with all the secret passage ways! I miss you!!
