good as new...

so, we are still living out of a suitcase at the moment...crashing at our wonderful friends' place...they have plenty of room, plenty of food, and plenty of entertainment...so we definitely owe them lots...

we haven't moved in because we are updating our place a little bit...with the uncertain times nowadays, we decided to pull the conservative (and smart) card and just move back to our old place rather than trying to sell it now and then saddle ourselves with a huge mortgage at another place...this way, we can live very comfortably and not have any worries...we'll move into a bigger place soon enough...our place isn't too shabby anyways and is 3 times bigger than what we had in london!

so, since we aren't upgrading to a bigger place...we decided to throw some cash at our old place...we got fancy new carpeting for both bedrooms (we still like carpet)...painted some of the walls different colors (the tenants painted the entire living room white again...snoozeville), which I've been working on almost every single night since being back here...and today we are getting the hardwood floors refinished and revarnished...after that, we'll get a few pieces of new furniture and a brand spanking new flat screen as big as we can afford to put up on the wall...

this is how our place looked before we left...we'll see how it turns out in a couple of weeks...
