A tour, a tour!

Posted in Home, House tour, Kara and Kyle, Photos by

I finally have for your creepin’ convenience, photos of our new house! I went with a slideshow instead of a video tour, only because it’s easier in a way. That, and I hate listening to the sound of my voice.

So, of you’re reading this in a reader, you may want to click on through to my actual blog page to view the pictures, because I’m pretty sure the slideshow won’t show up in readers.

Enjoy!

I shall explain that I didn’t take pictures of bathrooms because really, unless it’s AMAZING, a bathroom is a bathroom. I have three FULL bathrooms, so that means three toilets, three sinks, and three full bath tubs to clean. Lucky me!

And what on Earth are we going to do with that awful green, black and blue room? The black “magnetic” stripe is textured almost like a chalkboard and is noticeably raised from the rest of the wall. If we can’t get rid of it completely, we’re going to paint it a different colour (which will probably take 3 or 4 coats of paint!) and then paint the rest of the walls a solid colour. Not too sure what colour yet, but I’ll figure it out soon enough!

The bedrooms also all have gorgeous crown molding in them which makes them feel amazing. I just love lying in bed and staring at it!!

Hope you enjoyed the tour! We’re finally settled right in :)

Any colour combo suggestions for that awful striped room?

House Tour!

Posted in Home, House and Home, Video, Vlog by

FINALLY! I can finally present to you a tour of our lovely little house!

I decided to go with a photo narration instead of straight up video, because it was easier to edit. Enjoy!

Oh, and the “Poop closet”? We definitely thought the door beside our walk-in closet was going to be another closet, but it definitely wasn’t! Kyle, our Realtor, and I were all surprised when we discovered the tiny little en-suite bathroom!

Hope you enjoyed the tour, and like a good guide always asks, Any questions?

It’s Moving Day!

Posted in Amazeballs, Home, Kara and Kyle, Moving by

I wrote this post Thursday night while I steal the neighbour’s Wi-Fi connection. Kyle’s dismantled his computer and everything is unplugged except for my computer. I still need me some Internet at least until I get the motivation to pack up the last few things later on.

So I was suppose to get the keys to the place yesterday afternoon but the girl who be bought the townhouse from hadn’t received her money from the bank. She figured it would get to her by the end of the day, but alas it did not. Damn! So now I have to wait until some unknown time today to get the keys. Frustrating! I’m wishing I had taken the day off of Job #2 because it would make moving so much easier.

Hopefully all goes well with the Shaw Cable man this afternoon at the new place and we’ll have Internet all hooked up and ready to go. I’m planning a video tour of the place just for the blog too in the next couple weeks once boxes are unpacked and we’re a little more organized. (And when I have time! The freelance stories are still needing to be finished.)

Today is probably one of the happiest days of my life thus far. I still can’t believe we finally did it :)
