Ok, so *finally* I'm at .baron's moms
house and I've got the pics of the house
that I took!!!
I posted them as it would appear if you
were to walk in!
Ok, here they are!
Our little garden(baron covered up the
black hose, he said it looked "trifflin")
Me. Posin like a tard on the porch!
Me & .baron cheezin it up on the
porch!
Ok, view from front door!
View looking *at* the front door. We're
turning one of the bedrooms into an open
living area.
The bathroom!
Shelves in the bathroom!
This is gonna be .oni's room!
Her own lil mantel(wanna be! We're gonna
add a shelf for some frames!)
this is a bad shot of what's to be *our*
room. We're debating on swapping with
.oni...but it's a shotgun house, and our
bed would get in the way of the walking
path.
Da kitcheeen!
Me, scrubbin the tuub!!
Ok, we're off to the new house!!!

Please, show more pictures when you have
it all decorated!! I also love the tile in
the bathroom and kitchen. It really looks
like a comfortable place and it has some
character!! I have usually lived in houses
that are in neighborhoods with cookie
cutter homes. Absolutely no personality!!
We are currently renting a home and before
we moved in, one of the rooms was painted
very cute .... for a girl. It had purple,
pink and yellow checkered walls on one
side. The property management company
painted over the checkered part but left
the other sides purple and pink. Nate
calls it the silly room!!! He first hated
the pink but now likes "his" silly room.
Pretty funny. Sorry - my little tangent.

Thanks everyone!!! We have *some*
furniture moved in, not much, but I'll
take new pics tomorrow!!
Yall made me blush! 
I've lost about 15lbs in the past 2 weeks
(I should have don't that *before* getting
my dress altered 
) lol!!
I have the cable company and the gas man
coming out tomorrow! Excitinggg!
But one thing, every single time I go to
the house, or get out of the car to walk
up the steps, I get this *intense* tension
headache on my right side. I thought it
was, well, I didn't know what it was. But
tonight, as soon as we pulled up and
unlocked the door, my neck tensed up!
Many many many people died in my
neighborhood, and in the houses around us
because of .hurricane .katrina. I haven't
asked if anyone died in this one though. I
kinda don't wanna know....

What do You guys do for a living? I live
in California and I cant afford to live in
a house. Except my grandparents who raised
me... I live in a one bedroom- apartment
and pay $1500.00 per month for rent!

It's beautiful.
I love how open and bright it is.
What does a "shotgun" house mean? I've
never heard of the term before.
Oni's little mantel is sweet. Are the
walls around it on an angle, like it's in
a bay/alcove? that's cute if it is. I had
an alcove in my bedsit, years ago,
didn't have a mantel though - I used to
put my bed in it

I'm gonna take a swing at this but I am
not positive so please correct me if I am
wrong...
I believe it is called a shotgun layout
because it is kinda long and narrow. It is
said if you shoot a shotgun in the front
door it will go straight through the house
and through the back door. They are set up
like that so you can open the front and
back door and get a good breeze through
the house or else it gets to hot.
Will you be able to open the doors or is
it to humid there?
Yeah, 15 lbs will probably change the way
your dress fits. If you have a good
seemstress they will be able to do so
simple fixes to make it fit great. The
length is what takes so long. Once thats
done, everything else is smooth sailing.
As long as they know what their doing.
There is medicine for tension headaches.
You should talk to your doctor. You have
alot going on right now. I would be
shocked if you weren't getting headaches.

That is a beautiful house. The floors are
beautiful.
Did it have any damage from the hurricane?
Is it close to where you live now? I know
you had issues with your neighbors and
their dogs barking a while back, do you
still have close neighbors? Is it a lot
bigger than what you are used to?
A lot of questions.
Congrats!!! Moving sucks!!
You are very pretty!! You'll be a
stunning bride!

Thanks .nancy, .megg & .tanya!! Oni
gets her posing from her mommy! Ha!
I love the house, but I Hate all the hold
ups!!! We were supposed to be *moved in*
on the 4th of April! What the hellll!??!?!
lol, but it'll be worth the wait.(we will
*not* be giving the landlord a *dime* for
may!)
Rene, as of now, I don't do *sh;t*! I'm in
the .esthiology field, and plan on working
at a spa/dermatology office once I get
married. OUr rent is 850 a month(which is
a *steal* for .new .orleans, as every
other 3 bedroom runs about 1600)
Kia, thanks!! I love the fact that we
won't have to turn the lights on during
the day, we've got 12 windoes in all
through the whole house!
Mc is right about the term "shotgun"
house! lol...it's a part of .new .orleans.
99% of the houses are "shotgun" houses.
yea, the walls are on an angle. I think
we're gonna put .oni's bed there! So we
can see her from the front!
Mel, honestly all I've been doing is
walking my dog! ha! I walk her on the
nuetral ground(median), where the gras is
reaaaally soft and it's like speed walking
on sand! Feeeeel the burn!!
mc(sorry I keep forgetting your name!!!),
my dress was actually really snug. So now
I'll actually be able to breathe!
ha!! It's a size 16, but they run huge!
ANd it was extreemely depressing that I
was barely fitting in it..
you haven't experience heat until you've
visited .new .orleans mid june, july,
& .august!!
Geeezzzuuusss!!! It's sooooo heavy!
So, we'll just be opening blinds and
turnin on your ac units(1400$ ac untis
that blow icicles!!!!Brrrr!! )
Yes .cindy, the house had 8 feet of water.
It had to be gutted and totally
remodeled(but they were able to save the
floors without and mold infestation!!!)
Nope, it's nowhere near where we live now!
We live in .gretna now, now we
*officially* reside in .new .orleans!
Uptown bebe!! we have people that live on
both sides of us, well on the left side
there's a house still being renovated, but
should be done this week.
It's def got more space than what we have
now. ANd the ceilings are *hiiiigh*! The
rooms are bigger too!
ok, I think I got everyone! lol!
Sarah
