Sunday Bloody Sunday

It is already Sunday! Is it just me or does the weekend just fly by? Oh well, what can you do? We went and looked at the house yesterday and we are both in love with it. It does need some updating in the kitchen, but we figured all of those older homes (in our price range that is) would, and of course just cosmetic changes. She has a lot of wallpaper which I would change. It has a formal living room and a formal dining room, sunroom, 2 bedrooms downstairs and a den, which is my favorite room of the house! The kitchen is small, but it is enough for us and it also has a little eat in area and a bar area where you could eat too! There is only 1 bathroom which is small, but that was another thing we expected in that neighborhood. There is an upstairs part that she has completely updated into a bedroom suite, and it is HUGE! There are hardwood floors throughout the house. She has carpet downstairs, which we would take up in the living room and bedrooms and leave in the den. The backyard is small and shaded. It doesn't have a garage, but there is a carport area with a little place to put your lawnmower, etc. that you can lock. And there is a little patio area. The only downside to the house is really the kitchen. Your washer and dryer is in the kitchen, there is no laundry room and she has a dishwasher, but it's not a built-in, but I figure that is a fairly easy fix. Now, here is the kicker... She told us yesterday she wasn't sure if she was wanting to sell or not! I think she will just by the way she was talking, but you never know. So keep your fingers crossed for us. So in the mean time, we will continue to look. We plan to go to some open houses today and nose around some houses, can't wait. We never called the other FSBO home yesterday, but I think I might today. Brent doesn't like it as much, but you never know what you'll find on the inside. I don't want to get my heart set on the house we looked at yesterday in case she decides not to sell.
Oh yeah, we didn't make it to any garage sells yesterday. We attempted to, but when we did the "drive by", they didn't look too tempting, so we didn't stop. We decided to make the drive to Sallisaw to go to Walls Bargain Center. If you have never been to Walls, you should find a store near you and go. It's a huge store with just a bunch of different stuff from department stores with cheaper prices. They have clothes, shoes, household stuff (even flooring, rugs, etc.), and just a bunch of crap really. Anyway, we get to Sallisaw and the Walls there had went out of business, so we then decide to make the even longer drive to Poteau to go to the other Walls. What a pain in the ass! We finally get there and we didn't even buy anything! I was so dissapointed you don't even know. I wouldn't have minded the drive if I could have found something cool, but unfortunately I came home empty handed. Oh well, there is always next time.
