    So excited for you, Cathy. What a thrill to be "one on the same page" at the same time with hubby, and then find the perfect house when you least expected. It all just came together gracefully. i'd be finding it hard to sleep as well! You
    will have so much to dream about now!

    Congratulations, Cathy! It sounds perfect for you both. Boy, an 84 mile commute would do me in. Glad you will be able to get out of the car a lot earlier.

    AprilM - thanks for the info on the flooring. We looked at Pergo (the high end stuff) and I've had a hard time finding reviews on that product. Found lots of negative reviews on Pergo Laminate . . .

    We looked at appliances yesterday, and DH keeps hinting that I could have my baking center up in the Studio. Not sure why he's saying that. Maybe he's worried I'll clutter up the main kitchen too much. I plan on storing a lot of my specialty cook and bakeware in the second kitchen cabinets, but would prefer not doing much actual kitchen work up there. Fine for making a light lunch if I've got a few sewing friends over for the day.

    I have promised DH that I will not have any sewing machines anywhere other than my sewing Studio (I have over 150 of them right now), and other than room to park my car, I'm letting him do what he wants for the garage! And he also has the second bedroom in the main house for his use . So he better let me do what I want with my studio !

    I have serious room envy. Congratulations on your new home. It's exciting to get something you have always wanted. Can't wait to see the final setup.

    Sew exciting for you Cathy! I've thought if I'd live in a town, I would have a little sign out by the door..."Come in and sew with me." This sounds like the perfect place to have buddies over to spend the day!

    You sewing space is going to be soooo nice.

    I have kitchen cabinets, upper and lowers in my sewing room with a 90 " counter top, they are very nice. I keep a lot of quilt books and lots of sewing items in them.

    Congrats, Cathy! What a great big studio to work in! There's room for everything. Sounds like a great big blessing landed in your lap.
