Houses

I'm in the house hunting mood again. I want an old house, I just think they have character and are much more interesting than these new cookie cuter homes now days. I've found a couple that are for sale right now that I would LOVE to have.

I'm loving this style house right now. Love the A in the front with the curved doors. The mailbox even matches.

I love all the arched doors and windows. This is what I love about old houses.

This is another one I love.

Look at that kitchen! I love the red reto appliances.

This next one is my current love. If I could make the payments I would buy this house today for the full asking price. I would just up and move and not think twice.

I think with some flowers and plants it would a lot less blah. Just imagine having parties on that porch. Maybe even hanging up some curtains to soften everything.
Gorgouse wooden stairs and hardwood floors.

Look at this beautiful door!

They have updated the kitchen and I think it still matching the age of the house. I hate it when they redo the kitchen and it doesnt go with the house at all.

This is one of the awesome bathrooms. I love the fact that they kept all the orginal tile. Just look at the aqua tile heavenly~

This is one of the bedrooms downstairs with a sitting room off to the side. Just look at the little sitting room and the window.

Bad News and Good News......I guess.

Well of course on the morning of Monday April 20th I was on my way to work. It had been raining and the roads were wet. I was on the mountain about to go off when I went around a curve, not a sharp curve but when I went around I started sliding and then hydro-planed. I was going off to the right which remember I'm on the mountain, and it was a straight drop off. I turned the wheel to the left and slammed on the brakes. Well that just sent me sliding even faster over to the left. On the left was a deep ditch and then it went straight up cause it's the mountain. I thought I would just plow into the ditch and I would stop. Oh no I hit the ditch and flipped twice and finally stopped when little pine trees got to big to be torn out with the car. I'm OK and it totalled my car. I had to go to the ER because I had horrible pain coming from my left hip area. I tried to put weight on my left leg but it hurt too bad. So I find out I have 2 fractures on my pelvis and have to be on crutches for 6 + weeks. I can put any weight on my left leg or it would brake the fractures. At least i didn't have to have surgery It could have been so much worse. They said the side curtain air bag was what saved me and they fact that I had my seat belt on.

So the good news is that this is week 8 I'm finally crutch free. I have 6 weeks of therapy twice a week now but that is ok. The car got totalled out I lucky had the gap insurance and it paid off the car totally. When I bought the car I had to put the remainder of another car on that loan which made my payments higher but that's what I had to do at the time. Now everything was paid off.

I wanted a VW Passat but thought I wouldn't be able to afford it. I went and looked and they had 0% financing so even though I have a more expensive car my car payments are like 100 bucks cheaper. I'm so happy. I love my new passat. I had a jetta a couple of years ago and loved it. and always said I would have a passat one day and now I do. So I had a bad wreck got hurt, but I'm ok, and got to get a car I've always wanted with a cheaper payment.
