The days are drawing nearer to when we will be actual homeowners! Well, condo-owners anyway. That's okay, though. It makes my insurance cheaper :) Speaking of, Matt and I are both studying for our personal lines license - so we had fun getting the quote for our insurance. . . . and moving from HO-4 to HO-6 (Tenant Occupied vs Condominium Owner) lol. Moving on.... Things are coming along swimingly. The current projected complete date is April 12th, and it looks like they just might hit it :)
We got our loan stipulations back yesterday. Easy-peasy. Matt dropped off the required stuff this morning.
It's nice to swing by one day (yesterday) and see what my parents got to see a few days before. (Condo was locked when Matt and I went to look the day or two before that.) Then stop in again the next day (today) and have stuff actually be different! Woot! I vote the construction industry work more often ;) (Side note - looked like someone was getting their wood floor in on the third floor today :) )
Now for the pictures!

Yesterday, the 7th, I had taken the paint samples Matt and I picked up a couple days ago. I spent lots of time trying to figure out which colors I wanted to use. I discovered I have to wait for the carpet to be in before I can make a decision in just about all of the rooms. I also have to be able to see my wood floor before doing the kitchen and dining room. Master bath - my issue is the shower surround trim. It's too cool for the color I want to put in there. However! I did like the color I got for the hall bath. I think it even goes okay with our towels - now I just need to compare it to the shower curtain....which I have no idea where it is... So, it was a little upsetting for me to not know which colors to go with. I think I'd feel a lot more prepared then - so we could paint right away instead of me going through this agony some more when we get the condo. Okay, I might still have a small window between completion and ownership, but still.... Don't worry, when we get all the colors situated and on the walls, there will be more pictures :)
