Closet Lady

On Tuesday, some friends are meeting me at Charles' apartment and they are going to try to finish his packing. Mary and Charles both have been putting things in boxes. He gave his notice of moving for Feb 28. He's moving a bed into my second bedroom and staying here until the house is finished.  My lease was extended until March 31.  My complex is much more flexible with my moving.

The front door and the garage door will be painted soon.  It is exciting to see all the changes being done daily.  This picture shows Ween being introduced to her new front yard. She also did a "nose and butt check" with her new next door doggy neighbor, Amy.  Last time there was snarling and growling.  This time, just sniffing.

The "closet" lady met me at the house to talk about designing the closets.  Fat chance of me forgetting her name - Shiela.  She, of course, spells it wrong, but I'll forgive her after she gets all the work finished.  

The cleaning people arrived and were still working on the "preliminary" cleaning when we left.  Stove isn't in; microwave, dishwasher, and lights have been installed.  The washer and dryer, and the refrigerator were bought separately as the real estate company wanted entirely too much for their versions.  Charles felt it was more productive to spend the money on other upgrades. 

Charles, Holli and  Julie chose some lovely colors - walls, floor tiles, granite tops, and back splash all look so nice.  The granite tops are also IN the bathrooms.  We have "toilets." (WAHOO.)  Little by little it is coming together. The closing date hasn't been changed again so it looks like maybe March 7 WILL be the date.  

God is so good.  Ween and I are excited.  Hard to tell with Charles.
