Appliances, Carpet, and Real Stairs

Two weeks until we close and the house is almost finished!  The appliances have been delivered and just need to be installed.  Jason couldn't resist touching the gas stove... 

The carpet has been installed and the colors are so rich.  Here's where the living room meets the dining room.

And one of the best parts is that we have real stairs now!  It took me a long time to get used to walking up and down stairs that you could see through.  No more vertigo now!  I cannot peek down and see the ground and behind the stairs.


What really has me nervous?  Painting those vaulted ceilings in the living room area!  They are pretty high, but I know we can do it!   


I've collected paint samples nearly everytime Jason and I have gone to a home improvement store.  And I'd pick a few, take them to my apartment and/or over to Jason's place, and I'd ask him..."Do you like this color combination?"  His response is always, "I trust you to pick the colors."  Picking paint colors just isn't his bag.  

Well, tonight was the night to gather my massive pile of paint samples and sit down and decide the colors for the rooms.   I'm almost there!  I'm crossing my fingers that my mom and I can get into the house tomorrow so we can look at the layout and debate what to paint.  She's very good at those kind of things!  Hopefully I'll have final decisions by the end of the weekend. 

Only 13 days until we close!
