We were able to move into our new home the 4th of December. We tried to bribe the tenant to get him to move. It worked the second time which was cheaper that going though the whole eviction process. I had two guys come and move his stuff out and the next three days they took out the old carpet (see pictures below of the house) and other junk left behind. I spent the time starting to clean just the rooms we needed to live in, kitchen, living room, bedroom and a bathroom. I don't think it had been really cleaned for years. I still have several rooms to clean. We want to do some remodeling. We have been working on a floor plan that will make the most of the space with the least amount of work.

There are two bathrooms and they are both bubble gum pink! Yek
These two pictures are showing the room that will become the living room. If you look close you can see how wonderful the carpet looks.
The three above pictures are the hallway which is shaped like a U. When we took out the carpet there was two more layers of flooring and then a gummy tar paper which we could not remove. I found some $1.00 a yard fabric and stapled it down. It is so much better.
My sewing and craft room. It is upstairs and has wonderful hardwood floors. I am really excited about putting my sewing machine in front of the window and having time to sew.
