Now for some, home repair is as exciting or even more exciting than shopping for self-indulgent wardrobe additions. I hope that in time, I will see that getting a new set of ceiling fans is equally special as the new sandals I have been scoping out at DSW.
I will say that staff at HOME DEPOT have been very patient with me. I have visited HOME DEPOT’S in at least four states while trying to get a grasp of all the home goods that are out there. Each time I travel for speaking engagements I seem to find myself in HOME DEPOT with my iPhone snapping samples of tile, carpet or even appliances. YES.. we are the fools that bought a home that doesn’t even come with a fridge or washer/dryer set. At least we have a working stove… we think.
In case you are wondering why we picked a Charlie Brown house (one that others overlook, but we found merit)… note that we are less than a mile to the Pacific Ocean. The view alone is worth having to scrub paint out of my hair on a daily basis.
So, please be patient as future blogs will chronicle the transformation of our “Charlie Brown House” in to our “little haven by the beach”.
Have a groovy week! This blog will be on hiatus as I make the trek from metro DC to LA area.
