Mom and I are putting positive thoughts out in the universe right now. We have been throwing around the idea of selling our houses and buying a house together. I think what did it is freezing our behinds off this winter out in the garage. Plus, I am ALWAYS over at mom's house and I only go home to sleep. So, why not buy a house together; then when I have an idea, I can go out to the studio instead of getting up, getting dressed and drive over to mom's - too much effort!
Mom and I have been looking at houses since Thursday afternoon, and then yesterday we drove around to see the outsides of the houses. What we are looking for is a house with a basement or a house with an extension to put the studio in. This house is the house mom and I want!!!! We actually called the realtor today, and we walked around inside. The back has an extension that is PERFECT for the studio. There is enough room to put the torches, the kilns, and all the other tools for us. There is even French Doors we can close to keep the cats out of there. I think there is enough space in the house that mom and I aren't tripping over each other and getting on each other's nerves. The back is perfect for mom (a pergola and large patio) and there is a swing set for the kids when they come up for a visit. There is also a playground just down the road if the kids want to go there to play. There are two living rooms, one of which has a gas fireplace, and there are three bedrooms and two and a half baths and a two-car garage. Like I said, PERFECT.
Mom and I are meeting with a mortgage person on Tuesday to find out if this is a feasible (Positivity out into the Universe!). We then will call the realtor and find out what we need to do to get our houses on the market and sold. Just one foot in front of the other, one day at a time!
This will work! The studio is in the house, both of us are in the house, more work will get done on something we both love to do! This is our new mantra - Positivity into the Universe, This Will Work!
Please help us with these positive thoughts! The more positive thoughts the more the Universe will hear us!
P.S. - I added the link to the house under the house image if you are interested in seeing our PERFECT house.
Oh, I hope it works out for you. It looks like a beautiful home and sounds like it would fit both your needs...keep us posted. I have everything I can cross crossed.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandi! All the crossing helps out a lot! I am being positive that this will work and you are right, the house will be perfect for what we need. The neighborhood is wonderful and we met one of the neighbors - she is a painter and her daughter makes jewelry too. We thought we could create an artist conclave.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, Beth! This is a brilliant idea and the house has gorgeous curb appeal ... I'm sure it's just as beautiful inside. You have to be comfortable when you're spending as much time in the studio as you two are. I so hope it works out for you ... I know it will ... absolutely, positively!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful house! Good luck to you both. I am sure it will all work out.
ReplyDeleteWishing you all the best in this endeavor. It sounds perfect!
ReplyDeleteThinking good thoughts for you - what a blessing it will be to have you all under the same roof!
ReplyDeleteWow, that house is beautiful!! Good luck and I am sending you positive thoughts!
ReplyDeleteI am sending out positive waves to you both! That would be so exciting to have a studio to share and a home that you could cozy into. You will make it happen!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day!

Wow, I think this is terrific! Go ladies! Does the Realtor have the house on their website for views inside? Positivity sent from here! Love, Aunt V.
ReplyDeleteYou know what's fun? Right before I read this I opened up my little "note from the universe" that is delivered to my email each morning and it said, "There's simply no such thing, Barbara, as thinking too big.
ReplyDeleteWhoohoo,
The Universe"
So I'll be sending loads of positivity your way!
How exciting!!! I'll cross all my parts for you!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! Your thoughts and crossed body parts means the world to mom and I! THANK YOU! You all are the best!
ReplyDeleteOh I am sending all the positive thoughts I can!!!!! That is a gorgeous house!
