House Plans

For weeks I searched high and low for the perfect house and floor plan. Well it doesn't exist! I would find outsides I loved, but they would have the worst layout or they would be gagillion square feet. I definitely want space. I've lived in a 960 square foot house for eight years. But I don't need tons of space and I sure don't want that much space to clean. I will never have anyone one clean my house. I love cleaning and I don't trust anyone to clean like me. Anyways, after weeks of searching I found a floor plan that I mostly liked and an outside that would match it. Here is my custom version of the layout I liked. I moved a couple of doors, added a wall, and changed the layout of the kitchen and master bath. It works and it's 1,600 square feet. Perfect! The original layout included an open dining area. I added a wall and sliding barn door to make it my workout room. I will be so happy to have the treadmill, ballet barre and weights all in the same place and out if the way.

I still haven't closed! The weather after Christmas set us back a few days. Then it took them a freaking long time to get the survey completed. I don't know what took so freaking long. But it should be this week. Dad will have to come up here next week and decide where the house is going to sit and on what kind of foundation. I'm thinking I'll need a split level because of the slope, but maybe not. I'm not the expert. Hopefully we can start cutting trees down soon. I'm so ready to get this show in the road. I've got a one year plan, that I'm not sharing, and I want to be moved in before school starts.
