Me Me Me!

I want this:

Huffy Women's Cranbrook Cruiser

It's Mint Green and white. Single speed. 26 inch. (It needs a little wicker basket too.)  Walmart has it for $89.00. That's right, under a hundred.  Thinking about getting it. Gonna have a big ole garage sale in June with the neighborhood. Figure I can sell my old 500 (exaggerating) speed bike that I never know what gear to be in. 

I want this:

Crate & Barrel

 Well, not this set exactly, but a really nice indoor/outdoor set for my screened in porch. (I don't want purple)We are getting rid of a Hot Tub we never use and reviving the porch and hopefully turning it into a little piece of Heaven. Anybody want a Hot Tub?

I really want this to:

Tee Hee! Who doesn't?

And while I'm at it... I want:

Not the plane, but I wanna go someplace. With Hubby, Daughters, Julie, Deb, or Janet.
anywhere...

pleeeease?

But I will settle for this:

Any of it...but I'm out of all of it~

Happy Weekend to you!

My Dream House

This is my dream house.
I have been in love with it for about 30 years. I first saw it and knew one day, I would want to live here, when I was around 16 years old. After marrying Sergio, I discovered that he also loved it. It became available 15 years ago, but we were not in the position to buy it. Someone else got it before our home sold.
So we built this one.

This was a wonderful big house, perfect for raising the girls. We had a cul de sac, finished basement, basketball court, pool, and all the bells & whistles. It was in a small town, and the girls had a fabulous childhood growing up here. Particularly the teen years. I bet we had several hundred sleep overs here. And countless get-togethers/parties. Living here was the right choice.

But now the girls are grown and Annie is rarely home with her many activities, and of course, Emily is living in Muncie 10 months out of the year. We put the big house on the market last summer.

We are currently living in a much smaller home that we have been making home improvements on. We were not sure how long we wanted to stay at this home. Wanted to see what the market does and what opportunities come our way.

Now, my dream home has become available once again.

It is perfect.

Really perfect.

It sits on a quiet street with a golf course view in front (2nd picture). We are so tempted to purchase it now. The biggest problem is it is maxed out at the top of the market for the area. I do not believe this home will ever sell for much more than what it is currently. So if we want it, we have to understand that we will be "stuck" here or take a chance at a loss if we choose to sell.

It has an interesting floor plan and set up. Perfect for us. It has a 4 car garage behind the home. I love the three porches with there lovely views. Two fireplaces and the most gorgeous leaded glass windows. It has three bedrooms with one on the main floor. And it has a secondary kitchen in the finished basement!

I want this house. I have always wanted this house.

We decided to wait till May/June. If it is still available, then we may make an offer. Once again my patience is being tested.

We will see.
