Well, now on to bigger and better things! (I can never not have a project and this time it's a big one!) We have an offer in on the house of our dreams and will be putting our home on the market as soon as we can get it market ready (ie: decluttered, finish up projects that have gone forgotten for almost five years, etc.)
Anyway, the house is a BEAUTIFUL historic home (built in 1855) in the heart of the Christian Hills neighborhood of Alton. I have not been able to think about much else for the past 2 weeks and have spent every moment that I am not working, sleeping, etc. doing something to research the neighborhood, school district, history of the house, mortgage stuff, prepping our house to sell, etc. We are in a full blown frenzy to get our house listed and I am exhausted! I didn't even want to blog for the fear of falling asleep at the computer, but I just had to share the news and some photos of the house!
