The Mung Beans

So no one’s posted much of anything lately, even though we’re just using this one blog.  What can I say?  Bean keeps us pretty busy.  Right now she is working on a watercolor masterpiece in the dining room and letting me enjoy a latte on the sofa.  I’m taking a break from packing up kitchen non-essentials because we’re getting the house gussied up to put on the market.

In April it will be 10 years since we bought it.  This little 2 bedroom 1930′s bungalow has gone through many incarnations in its life; this incarnation is almost complete.  We found another house.  The other house sits on a hill about 10 minutes from here in a community of only modern homes.  It’s the complete opposite of the house we live in now, but it’s the only other house I can picture us living in.  In my opinion, it’s just gorgeous with its tall ceilings, sleek cabinets and counters, three bedrooms and bathrooms, and a view of the city that stretches for miles, but it’s not ours yet.  We have to have an offer on this house before we can negotiate an offer for it, which is why we are scurrying about to get our house ready.  This post really begs for  a picture of our little house, maybe one from the year we bought it and a current one, but that will have to wait.  My little artist is ready to have her masterpiece hung up to dry and that kitchen isn’t going to pack itself.
