Our House is Empty & Waiting
So the house we are buying in Bay Ridge is empty and waiting for us to move in. How do I know? I went to the house and looked in the window. I wanted to see if the sellers were ready to leave. Besides the curtains, there was four empty walls and a shiny floor. I should be jumping up and down with excitement over this. Yet, I’m not…not because the former owner had the greatest style or furniture, but she made such a cozy home and I hope I am able to do the same. Yes, her furniture is old and kind of granny like, but when I walked into the house, I got such a welcoming feel. I could picture myself coming in after work or hopping down the stairs on a Saturday morning. I’m glad I took pics of the way she had things because I would love to have the same comfortable feeling.

Master Bedroom: It’s an old set, but still it was so warm and comfy looking.
I have more bedroom and bathroom pics, as well as pics of the tenant’s apartment, but those will have to wait until we do some work on them!
Hugs,
marlene

Thanks Stephanie! I just hope that I am able to keep the house warm and inviting like the former owners. I’m so anxious to close and start living there.
