Sadness Has Set In - And so has Reality!

     In less than two hours I will have to go to bed in order to be prepared for that 4:30 a.m. alarm!  Hubby and I have been sad all day today.  We've had such a wonderful Christmas break that we don't want it to end.  At least I'll have off again in a couple weeks for President's Day.  He doesn't receive another vacation day until Memorial Day!
     Even though we were off for a very long time, we didn't get everything accomplished that we had planned.  One very important matter we wanted to take care of was the choosing of a house plan.  We sat down last night and looked through two plan books (about 1200 different plans!)  Without looking at each other's choices, we wrote down about ten plans from each book.  Then we checked to see if we had any favorites in common.  Out of about 1200 houses, we had six that we both liked.  I believe we have our work cut out for ourselves.
     The photos below are not from the plan books we looked through, I just decided to post them to give examples of our two different style preferences.  This house is the style Hubby prefers.  I do think it's nice, but the one below it is more "me."  I think it has more character.


This one is the style I prefer.  I think I've posted it on here a couple times before.  I really don't think we'd go wrong with either choice.


     That's all for tonight.  Thanks to those who sympathized with me regarding the end of my vacation.  I know I complain, but I am looking forward (a little) to going back to school.  I have a wonderful group of children this year, and I do miss them.  (Did I really say that?)
