Fantasizing About a Home

No more news about the house. We're still "almost there". So I am left to continue fantasizing about MY house. Essentially we are proposing to knock down three of four walls and all interior walls, add out to the left of the house and in the rear. We intend to make OUR HOUSE OURS. That is we get to design it. Everything. Until we close we won't meet with an architect, but until then we are considering all kinds of possible layouts. In my latest version I thought to myself, "What about a place to put the elliptical machine that I don't currently own but would love to have? How about an exercise room? A place to follow along with my videos?" Super luxurious to allot an entire room to this? You bet! That is part of the fantasizing. Think big. The architect's input and the price tag will bring my plans into the realm of reality soon enough.

In the meantime I am applying my expert skills at research to collecting ideas for every room in the house - flooring, wall colors, furniture, windows, layout of furniture, etc... Here are a few pictures of my "house" workspace.
