Our house...in the middle of the street!

I really need music on this blog! Do any of you know that song about "our house...in the middle of the street, our house."? Anyway...

We have been busily (frantically, tiredly, robotically) getting the house ready to put on the market on Monday! Yikes! We are very close to being ready, if I'd stop blogging and get the office finished. But, I've done SO MUCH that I really need a break now and again. I had all the bedrooms done, but when I took the glow-in-the-dark stars off the boys walls I recalled why they were placed where they were: to cover the hundred nail holes from the previous tenants. So, we are repainting tomorrow night. Ugh. The office is nearly there, although you wouldn't know it to look at it, but it does take a mess to clean a mess. We've already had people come through, once with a realtor and tonight some friends came to check it out. But, in order to get the house on the market we need to take some pictures. We'll probably end up with better ones by the time we're done but I thought I'd share what I have. This is all the back yard. We've had a blast back here. You can see the pool cover down, then up in the first 2 pictures. We've liked the pool but will probably not ever have one in ground again. Our grass is green all over for the first time. We finally got rid of all the problem spots. Just in time, huh.

And here's the inside. We have changed it alot from when we moved in. If I have time next week I'll try to post some before pictures. It was a doozy of a decorating job! But it's nice to change it to how I want it. I suppose the next owners will do the same thing. The picture of the red chair is in my bedroom and is my peaceful spot. I don't know if other people like the red next to the blue wall, but for some reason I love it! And that's all that matters, eh! So, there you go. I'm sure I'll have to post a goodbye house post another time, but the saps ran out of this tree for now. I'm in work mode!
