Just a rant of sorts

This weekend has been a fun, busy, and entertaining one. I went up to Denver to help my Dad at a gun show, we had a great father daughter bonding time. I stayed up there over night and came home early this morning (way to early) so I could attend mass. Mass was wonderful and the visiting Priest was very kind. After mass I came home and thought I would do some school work, maybe clean the house (once a week if I am lucky) and go check on the cows. I sat down for a minute and woke up at 6 p.m. so I thought ok I am worn out from the trip and excitement, I will take it easy. My not so little kitten decided that was not a good plan, as she ran around the house like a terror, tried to jump on the deer mount and to top it off ran off with the last of my taco for dinner. Now as I type she is staring at me from the closet. I guess next time I leave I should take her with me.

That is one less thing they must worry about when looking for a home. The house or property with the least amount of work that needs to be done is the winner 9 times out of 10. Unless it is an investor or a house flipper. Second, declutter is a must. Now while you are packing to move yourself you will ...

Making the Most of a Modest Space

While some people who are selling their home think a small kitchen is a negative, there are several ways that you can make it stand out and appeal to potential buyers: Light it up. Darkness can often make smaller rooms feel even more cramped. To open the room up to more light, consider removing all curtains from windows and instead install recessed blinds. You still get the privacy factor, while also allowing your kitchen to have a brighter feel. Keep the counters tidy. Many people have things strewn about their kitchen counters and cabinets. Think about keeping your counter tops clear of all items, including photos, papers and even appliances, to make it seem like the room is larger than it truly is. Brighten the walls. Sellers should consider making the tone of the wall color in the kitchen brighter. Lighter colors tend to open up a room. They are also much more inviting, enticing potential buyers. Mounted appliances. Sellers may want to consider mounti...
