House Update...

Well, we MIGHT get in this house before this child's first birthday. The lady at the tile place won't call me back to let me know about the shipping.....Gibson has started planting so he doesn't have anyone to send down there to pick it up....its is supposed to rain the rest of the week.....the tile guy and the contractor are going on vacation next week (have they told me this....heck no....I heard it through the grapevine...NICE) I told the contractor not to lie to me when he told me I might be in by the end of the month (meaning March) we are NOWHERE close. WE MIGHT be in by June or July at this rate! LOVELY!

You wouldn't think finding a bed would be THAT hard....

So, I have been on a mission the past couple of weeks to HOPEFULLY get this house furnished (well, somewhat) and move in before the baby gets here. Its coming along...somewhat...but I CANNOT find a bed for my room that I like. Well, I found one I really like, but it costs about as much as a small car, well maybe not that much,...but its still an obscene amount of money and me buying it...AINT HAPPENIN!!! Anyway, I don't know WHY they don't make plain ole, DECENT 4-poster beds anymore. I want either a rice bed, pencil post, reeded post, something along those lines...but I do NOT want those massive posts that are on all the beds now. I have looked everywhere, am even at market this weekend and still having no luck. I do have the name of a guy in Jackson that makes them...just wanted to know if anyone has seen any anywhere lately or knows anyone else that makes them....just exploring all my options, well, lack of options! I posted a pic of kinda what I am looking for (yeah...this is the insanely expensive one)



Oh yeah, I love how everyone keeps telling me...."Just use the furniture you have...you don't have to have all new furniture just b/c you have a new house" Um, yeah, I agree with you, but you obviously are forgetting I have zilch...it all burned! Trust me, starting from scratch seems like a lot of fun....it definitely has its perks, but I would take all my stuff back in a heartbeat! Anyway, I cannot believe it has already been a year since the fire, I was actually at March market last year when it burned (which is where I am at this moment to be exact..but anyway)....BOY have our lives changed in a year!!!!
