Lots of Home Excitement!
The last two months have been insane for us. We have had non-stop commotion with the workmen who renovated our two bathrooms (some of the renovation took place while we were in South Africa for two weeks) and having a house we inherited on the market.
However, it looks like the chaos has come to an end!
Both bathrooms are finished and look glorious. The upstairs which was completely gutted and rebuilt is all marble (walls, floor, etc.), with brass accessories, and an airjet (we like it better than a whirlpool). It looks really good despite all of the aggravation. The downstairs bathroom has a new marble floor, gilded light fixture, and new kohler sink and toilet.
In regard to other house, we actually are in contract. We sold it for 100% cash which seems completely unbelievable to me. This means we don't have to wait for a mortgage and will close within two weeks. There is still so much to do in terms of cleaning it out, but the thought of not having to worry about that house is amazing.
We thought we would take some of the money from the sale of the house and renovate the kitchen. But after suffering through the bathroom renovations, I am not sure if I want to do it anymore. I think I might just want my house to myself for awhile.
