Actually, during the past few days I’ve been having a lot of discussion with hubby on the type of window design that we want. That includes what type of glass panel, if the window open outward, if it has brick frame all around it and of course the size of new windows that we are going to have.
Now we have decided to just have the lower part of the window with protruding bricks and it will just be 3 sets of the windows with this design. We are trying to reuse those existing window frames and glass panel. The decision is affected by the structure of the house and how much we wanted to spent.
The next thing for me to do is to find out the exact design for the new windows which include the type of frame and how many glass panel on each window, which of course I need to think about the color as well. I wish I can just go out now to do some window shopping and survey on the type of glass window available in the market with the price tag that suits us.
I’ve actually went looking for sink and toilet last weekend. Only then I know there are so many different types and also the things that I needed to know before deciding, such as the distance of the main hole to the wall. Then again, the color of the toilet. The darker the color, the higher the price.
I’ve also started to notice on the type of counter top I want for the kitchen. But before that I need to decide on the layout of the kitchen to fix the wall sockets. Goodness, I really need hubby around to make up my mind and it is so hard to talk over the phone in discussing the layout. How I wish he is here right in front of me. Nevertheless, he is coming back this weekend, so I hope we can discuss and decide everything over the weekend.
This house could well be some sort of soccer trophies for me. First for being able to get it renovated within our budget, second for being able to have a house that I can finally call “my own home” and finally a place that is filled with the combination of ideas from me and hubby. I think that it is definitely my kind of trophy.
My boys, especially the elder one has already been making plans for the things that he wanted to do when we moved in. But son, I can’t promise you when exactly we’ll be able to move in, ‘cos I need another adult in the house for at least I can have my shower without worrying what the two of you were doing out there.
Other than that, I myself also been dreaming of having my own space that I’m the hostess and being able to decide upon lots of things such as what color should I have for the wall or curtain. However these would probably become my headache later.
