We close on our new nest tomorrow morning! Is it a bad sign that I'm already tired and the work hasn't even begun? :) I could tell I was feeling stressed earlier, when I was getting extra upset about unimportant things. I'm like my own therapist. "So Cameron, are you angry because your shoe came untied or is this a manifestation of the stress you feel because you're buying a house and all the responsibility that comes with it?" Hmm.
I'm sure I will feel a little better once I can get into the house and actually take some ACTION on the unknowns instead of thinking about what action I might want to take SOMEDAY when I get in the house. I'm also excited to get a feel for its personality. Hopefully the living room will tell me what its favorite color is. If not, by a lucky turn of events my mom is in town this week, and I'm sure she'll have some great input and ideas. I am so relieved she will be here!!! (please note the multiple exclamation points)
Anyhow, I will let you all know how things go and try to keep you in the loop on our projects we'll be working on.
Oh! I almost forgot to tell you that I found a fridge! My husband and I have been trying to decide between buying one on Craigslist or buying one new. There was also discussion about whether we should get a black one to match the other appliances or plan ahead to replace all appliances and begin with a stainless fridge. Well, I was at Lowe's over the weekend with my friend Chez (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHEZ! I LOVE YOU!), and we stumbled upon a stainless fridge in the exact model I wanted with a little dent on the door. It was DEEPLY discounted, so I snatched it right up! What a great find! Big thanks to Chez for the appliance shopping moral support!
Alright, that's all for now. Please be saying prayers for my sanity! Can't wait to share more soon. :)

Appliance shopping moral support is very important. So is paint picking moral support. Unfortunately, I don't think my living room has overtly told me what color it wants to be, but hopefully your house is more communicative than mine. :)
