So, our house is nearly finalized. In the end, we’ve chosen the Tuscany Apartments. We even have Apt #126 reserved for us. We’re both stupid excited. Things are looking up, and all we have to do is get the finances in order for everything to fall truly into place. Things look up, and they should be just fine.
But, this brings me to a starting realization. I’m nesting. It started innocently enough, I’m sure. I just wanted to go to Target’s website and do some price checks on pot racks. My old house has them. I love them. I want them in the new place. So… I find them. Hell, they’re pretty cheap. And, what’s more, is Chris has a Target card. We can play with a few things… a few options.
Drapes? A house needs drapes, right? Windows require things like that. I could look at them. What would match with my blue sofas? Green. Green would work well. Maybe a mossy color, something that allows us to have heinous throw pillows. And, I’ll want a novelty clock in the living room or kitchen… one of the two. What kind of clock will I want-
Oh my bloody god… I’m nesting. I’m picking out things and decorating my house before we’ve even moved in. What’s more… Chris is doing it with me. We finished each other’s sentence when we were discussing colors… green. We both decided on it.
It’s a smidge ridiculous, but mostly wonderful. I have thoughts of a bright house with lots of love in every area. I love the idea of my new home, and am looking forward to truly having it.

What a great mindset. Hang on to it and enjoy every moment of your life.

Thanks. ^.^ I intend to. Two months into a relationship is a smidge early to be doing most of this kind of stuff… but there are people in your life that just seem right. I hope to hold onto that feeling (reciprocated as it is) as long as I possibly can. We’re both practically giddy. >.> It’s ridiculous in a beautiful, beautiful way.
