Forgive me, but I'm new at this

We're in. We're happy. We're homeowners. It still doesn't seem real. And I think part of us is still living like we did in an apartment. So forgive me for not having a post up that gushes about our home and has all sorts of pictures to drool over. The fact is, we've been busy and my camera is, uh, packed away somewhere.

But in the two weeks we've been in our home, I've fallen in love with my kitchen. It's my favorite room in the house. It might be something to do with the fact that I have two lovely windows over my sink so I can people watch. Make that construction-worker watch. Not that any of them are hot, but it's still interesting to watch a house go up and think about our house having gone through the same process. It's all, "So that's how they did that!" We've also discovered that the homeowners of that home are more excited than we ever were. They come by just about everyday to check on the progress. I waved at them once, and they waved back rather hesitantly. Maybe we'll friends! If I don't scare them away first.

Until I get some pictures up (coming soon, I promise), here's a picture of the new section we bought over the weekend. I'm in love with the softness of the corduroy fabric. Next on the shopping list: a new dining table. Won't be a for while though. Our expenses need to recover.
