So I have lived in this house for more than two years now, and although its taken a while I am ready to erase EVERYTHING from the previous owners! Yes that's right as of about four weeks ago you can no longer view the blue floral curtains from 1978 in my living room. Ha ha! I know you are thinking I am nuts for keeping those up for two years and you are so RIGHT! In the middle of the Christmas ordering rush and chaos I got an itch to take down the hideous curtains and replace them with curtains that I love and had hanging in the last house and have been sitting in a box since. I can't believe its taken me this long. Anyway, the itch continued to the mailbox as well. I didn't want their name on the mailbox anymore cuz its my house!!! So I cut our name and address in vinyl lettering . I decided to use the outdoor variety. It has a 10 year guarantee outdoors and can withstand all types of weather and wind. It felt so good to own that mailbox! Now as for where the old owners wrote their name on the inside of the mailbox door with a sharpie, yeah not so inclined to paint over it yet. They can keep that for now..... maybe someday. Now, to tackle all these walls they built in this place...where's my sledgehammer?Friday, January 14, 2011
