Here it is!!! My little Farmhouse Fixer Upper with emphasis on “fixer upper”.  It is exactly what I was looking for, a small house (built in 1958) with big yard and the barn/garage is a bonus!! LOL, seriously who doesn’t want a barn?!  It’s a 3 bedroom, 1 bath ranch house on a 1/3 acre.  There’s another 10ft behind the barn that backs up to horse pasture.  It’s a little piece of country, kinda sorta in the city.  It’s unincorporated Adams County and is on well & septic.  I have big plans for this cute little “Grammy Ronda Farmhouse” so be forewarned, my blog is about to turn into DIY Projects Central, LOL!

The electricians were at the farmhouse today.  The whole house has to be rewired.  It was built in 1958 and still had a “fuse” box.  I remember seeing one of those in my grandmother’s house, lol.  Thankfully the owners have already moved so the house is empty.  They agreed to pay the expense on the electrical (I get the plumbing – lol).  This is the main living area – 14×20, the kitchen is through that door area on the right and the left doorway leads to the master, bathroom & the linen closet.  I’ll try and get the house pics up tomorrow. . . 😉

So, because I’m a little organized AND I hate to ask for help AND if I do need help I want it to be as simple as possible, I came up with this fantastic idea (if I do say so myself)!  It’s hard enough to move your whole house (that you’ve lived in for 20 years!), so to make it a little easier on all of us I went and bought colored Duck Tape.  Each room in my house has it’s own color, so ALL my kitchen boxes have a strip of Yellow Duck Tape and ALL my Christmas boxes have a strip of Red Duck Tape, etc.  Now I wont’ have to read my notes on every single box to figure out where it goes!! Great idea, right?!?! 😉

Sooooo I cannot believe how fast my house sold!!  You hear stories about other people, but I didn’t expect it to happen to me!  We listed around noon on Wednesday and stopped showing it on Friday at noon.  I had 35 appointments for showings and had 16 offers!!!!!  So crazy & what a blessing!!  I’m under contract and we’ll be closing the middle of December . . . sooooo my Christmas cards may be late this year! LOL  Thank you all for your prayers!!
