It actually is! :laugh
I'm feeling really relieved not to be searching for a place anymore. *knock on wood* I got some home/garden design magazines and have been looking on line. The possibilities are endless once you're sure you have a structurally sound base to work from. My problem may be to not go too "crazy lady" with gardening and home decorating. "Eclectic" only begins to describe my tastes.
That's great news Gut!! I'm so glad you found your place. It looks great. Have fun decorating!
Well, I've just made an offer, so I need to slow down a little. Could be other people made offers when the price dropped, too, although the furnace issue seems like it would scare most people off.
Crossing our fingers for you! And something for his "vanity wall" is a great idea!Quote:

Not only write him a nice Thank you note Gut, but make sure his boss knows as well how pleased you are.
I'm definitely going to do that.
Great news, Gut! Paul jumped my question about the retirement home!
Love the cottage Gut! My landscaping brain is full of ideas, lots of potential... You will have so much fun making it your own :)
How wonderfully exciting. Praying all goes well in the process. The house looks charming and I can see why you would give it that name.
The pellet stoves I've seen are electric, so not great in a power outage. MrCoz thinks there may be some that aren't electric, but we're not sure. Also, one family here that had a pellet stove didn't have enough pellets to last through the winter and then couldn't get them when they needed them due to the stores being sold out of pellets. They do heat very well from what I've seen.
After looking into a little, I've heard you can't burn wood in pellet stoves and that seems silly considering I'm going to be living on the edge of a very large wooded area. I've spent my life as a girl scout picking up kindling and most of my adult life heating with wood, so I think I want to stick with that. I'm also considering a wood cook stove for the room that's added on that looks like it may have been a porch at one point. It has a second wood stove hook-up (the main one is in the living room). I used to actually cook in a wood cook stove when I was married. We didn't have a regular stove/oven.
