I thought it was pretty clean to begin with because this brush is so new, but I still managed to get the water looking pretty murky just from soaking this brush in it.. Ew.

In our previous market, this same property just outside the city limits would have been millions of dollars.Just a few hours down the road though, this property was much much less than the tiny townhouse with almost no yard that we’d been living in.

There are a lot of other financial benefits that often come with living in a more rural setting like less traffic, less of a commute to work, lower costs on consumer goods and services.The savings on these things alone can mean that if you’re in a couple, one of you may not need to bring in an income anymore..Create some savings.

Moving into a lower priced market often allows you to create an instant savings account for yourself through the sale of your old house.This savings is absolutely necessary.

If you’re doing the old farmhouse thing, there WILL be costly things that come up when you’re least expecting it.

If at least one person in the household doesn’t already have a job lined up in the new town, a savings account can save your sanity.What really happened is that one day the weather was perfectly Fall-ish, I had a little bit of free time, and I wanted Fall in the livingroom.

now.. Progress needed to be made right then and there and now dilly-dallying of any sort would be permitted..I started playing around with things I had on hand, and what do you know?

This is almost always the way it happens, despite all of my grand plans..I kept up with my tactic of sticking things to the walls (that need to be torn out and replaced anyway eventually) just like I did.
