Disease

Those who know me best know that I have a crazy disease. It is actually hereditary- I got it from my Grandpa McArthur, but it skipped my dad. My disease is that I am addicted to architecture/construction/design. When I was younger I was satisfied to be constantly drawing up new floorplans. Unfortunately, now that I am older I am more compelled to act on my urges. In the last year and a half I have decided to move at least seven times. My friends think I am the girl who cried wolf, because I always say I am moving, but I never actually do.

Well today I took a big step! We put our house up for sale! I am going to miss our house because I have put a lot of work into it. You would think that since we bought a brand new house it wouldn't need any changing, but I have made many changes ranging from paint to flooring to finishing the basement. I have a very patient husband. Here are a few shots of our first home. And by the way, if you know anyone looking for a darling home in Herriman (4 bedrooms, 3-1/2 baths) please send them my way.








So goodbye dear old (newish) house. We love you, but we are moving on to a new adventure...

I have found a lot that I am absolutely infatuated with. It is just down the street from where we live now, so we won't have to make new friends :) It is a walk-out lot with gorgeous views. So, I drafted up some new plans (probably my 20th design) and met with an architectural draftsman. The plans should be done this week and we will put an offer on the lot as soon as our house sells!

Hopefully acting as designer and general contractor on my own home will cure my disease... at least for a couple of years.
