Update

10 years ago

Finally went to Sweet Bay and really didn't find it much different that any other grocery. It did have a larger International section, but I wasn't looking for anything of that nature at the time.

Mustangs, DH had his surgery on Weds. I didn't contact you because it took less than an hour for them to do the surgery and I knew he'd be wanting to get back to the RV as quick as possible. We will be up in Tampa for a while sometime before we end this trip in April and I would like to meet up with you then if its still convenient for you.

DH spent two days in bed and in a lot of pain. They didn't give him any pain medication so he had to take Tylenol. He's still having some pretty strong spells of pain, but its getting better and the swelling and redness on that side of his head and face is going down. One down and at least six more to go.

Thanks to everyone who sent prayers and best wishes. They are all appreciated.

Madonna, I'm glad that your husband is starting to feel better. I can't believe that they didn't send him home with pain meds or at least a prescription for something stronger than Tylenol.

Nicole, I received your email yesterday about your plate prize being chipped. Sent you an email back yesterday. In case you did not get my email, please hold on to the shipping receipt, box and shipping material. I will call the store I ordered from tomorrow and see how they want to handle it for a replacement. If they are unable to do so, then I will send you something else. I will email you after I speak with them. Thanks for letting me know about the chip. Appreciate it! Happy Sunday...must run! Annie

Ok, you've convinced me to go with dark sashes and muntins! Thank you for the feedback! Some more variations (I'm kind of obsessed). Bottom left is existing window frame colours with muntins added, and stucco painted (tudor boards kept the existing colour) Bottom right is dark sashes, a taupe-y casing, and both stucco and tudor boards repainted. (Top left existing, top right was an old version with lighter muntins/sash)

Paint a neutral color. I would think cream since you have warmer tones and hire a crew to do a super deep clean. If there are any obvious broken stuff like switch plates or whatever, then replace because people will assume a place hasn't been maintained well if they see broken stuff. I live in a high rise and recently two almost identical apartments were sold - same size and layout and both were going to need serious updating. One person did nothing but paint and got $50,000 more than the person who did nothing. Both places really needed gut remodels in kitchen and baths and the one that sold for $50,000 more even had terrible water damage on the floors so that it would have to be replaced quite obviously. You are never going to be able to actually upgrade so that it looks 2023 so why bother to do anything since you are going to attract a buyer who either wants to redo to their own taste OR who is happy to get a functional home for less money than it would be if it were remodeled.
