Hi everyone! I've made it to West Virginia to our new house.
The movers are arriving on Tuesday to do the big unload. They called to tell me that our load weighed 11,000 pounds! Whew, and that was after I sorted and weeded out stuff!
Our new home is a little smaller and the ceilings are lower so it seems even smaller after living with 11 ft. ceilings. The house is also older and needs some upgrades, so I've got my work cut out for me. Right now I have a painter working on changing the colors of every room. Seems as though the previous owner was all about color and I'm all about soft and neutral, so there is lots to do!
I'm so glad that I could take all of you with me!!
I just hope that I can find the sheets and pillows to put on the beds!!! I'll check back with ya later.
~~hugs~~

Hi, Sissie! Moving is always an adventure and moving from the coast to West Va is a BIG adventure. But I know you're more than capable and probably even looking forward to conquering all the challenges of remodeling a new home. And it will be beautiful! I'm so looking forward to seeing all your talent and creativity at work in your new home.
I live in Michigan but I am from WV.
Born and grew up!
Best people you will ever find in WV.
People in WV would give you the shirt off their back if you needed it.

Congrats on the move, so exciting!

Hugs friend and congrats again,

I believe the most common way to choose a painter is by recommendation from friends. If they’re satisfied with the service, you can hope it would hold up for you. By the way, if you have a long and narrow room, you can consider painting the end walls with a darker shade than the long, narrow walls. This way, the darker colors will recede and will create an illusion of width. The light colors will then advance. ;) Happy painting. Hope to see some updates.

Congrats on your new home! If ever you need something to decorate for your new home, Vinyl Tablecloth is just the right place to look for tablecloths of your beautiful tables.
Your stuff weighed 11,000 pounds? That’s a lot of stuff! More stuff means more things to arrange and organize and lots of hard work too! Anyway, how’s everything now? I hope that you’re already done with all the renovations.
With your new house, I’m sure that you also have lots of wonderful ideas on how are you going to make it as cozy as possible. Like you, I’m also not into so many colors. By the way, what color did you choose for your new house?
