Our first contract...

We are currently negotiating an offer on this house:


Kinda crazy to think that we could be moving in a month!

Online browsing

I have a recent thing where I want to own a chaise lounge.


Here are some I found online:

The Delta Storage Chaise Lounge. This one is available in two colors - brown (shown) and tan. I think I prefer the tan. Cost + shipping = $389.99. It got good reviews, and who doesn't love extra storage?
Custom Lincoln Chaise from JCPenney. Tons of color choices and can be either microfiber or velvet. Also can be either right-armed or left-armed. It's $499 + shipping (which is free today).The Taylor Chaise Lounge. Totally different, but perhaps more versatile. Tons of color choices. I dig this "pool" one. Cost (with shipping) is $519.99.

Maybe this is it??

Although we don't have our 20% yet (it's so close we can smell it!), Mr. Oh and I got sucked in and have had two appointments to see this house:





I am really liking it. We're pre-approved for the mortgage. Now we've just got to really talk about it. If we made an offer really soon, we'd most likely borrow some cash from my in-laws. We would be able to pay them back in just a couple months. Or, since the house has been on the market for over three months already, we may just sit on it awhile. Who knows? All I know is that this could get exciting.

Bookends

I've been a fan of bookends for a few years now. We have several sets, but it's always fun to look at more...from Target

A Bicycle Built for Two

Mr Oh gave me a red tandem bike as a wedding present.

Someday I'd like to create a piece of artwork similar to this:(picture via AT via PB)

One idea is to take a photo of the bicycle and then let Kinko's work some magic.
