As some of you know I recently bought a new house.

She's a 5 bedroom 3 bath 3 car garage sitting on a bit less than 1/2 acre fully landscaped front and rear.

It's about 3 years old so everything is fairly new but I wanted to have something "different"(it's track home).

I bought it with intentions of remodeling it to my liking about a month and a half ago.

Well I started on the remodeling. Put in wood flooring through out, the carpet it had was std type and a bit filthy from the previous owner having an indoor toy dog. Delay 1 Trim pieces wont be here for 2 weeks

Now it's new tile since it had plain jane off white tile. I craved some shapes etc. Waited a week for it.

Next is new applainces since the S/S ones it has are about 3 years old and were used by the previous owner. Homie don't play the cook my tortillas on a used stove. Still waiting for my order 3 weeks later since it's all a matching set. Delay 2

Then finally putting in quality carpet in 3 of the bedrooms. Only took me 3 weeks to pick it out! Now it's going to take a week to be delivered. Good thing it should only take about an hr to lay all 70 yards of it. Delay 3

I've already repainted most of the interior. One of the rooms was pink . I guess if Don(hidnnos) was living here he'd be at home in that room.

I could have never imagined owning a home you actually want to live in could be so involved.

I'm exhausted right now. I've lost about 2-5 lbs from dealing with this stuff.

Oh and to top it off I still need to pack the old house and take with me what I plan on keeping. I've got 10 years of my life stored in this house.

I'm just frustraded that I took a week off from work to possibly be moved in this week and it's been nothing but delay after delay.

I was hopping to have everything done today and spend the weekend shopping for furniture.

I'm starting to feel like a bit off more than I could chew. I guess you can't rush these things.
