I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!
There have been tears, anger, stress and times we thought we would lose the house, but thankfully it all worked out in the end.
Unfortunately, we both have to work today so I am itching for 5.30pm to arrive and I know you shouldn’t wish your life away but I’m just so freaking excited!
I’m looking forward to:
- Us putting the key in the lock, opening the door and walking into our first home together
- Being carried over the threshold (I told the handsome one I was going to eat as much as I could this week and put bricks in my pockets, ha ha!)
- Cleaning. Yes, walls are going to be knocked down, heating is going to be installed, plastering needs to be done but I just want to fill my bucket up with some Zoflora and get it smelling a bit better
- Running up and down in the massively overgrown garden and thinking about where I can quickly dig out a patch for my vegetables that are all currently growing in pots at the cottage
- Me and my handsome one actually owning our first home together, popping that bottle of champagne and raising a toast, To Us.
There has already been a clear division in who is doing what – I’ve arranged for the kitchen designers to come out, bought some church chairs off Marketplace on Facebook (I’ve only just discovered this hidden gem!), looking at lighting and planning the garden. The Handsome One has been talking to builders, looking at fitters for the bathroom and trying to arrange oil central heating – I think I’ve got the better end of the stick!
Did you know that it’s officially the Happiest Day of the Year? Well I for one definitely agree.
Happy Friday everyone!
