It IS super cute though and sadly, that kitchen is bigger and better than the one in my 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom 1970's townhouse. Since it's a temporary situation (and you are the only grownup there), it's kind of a good idea to keep things small. Less room for junk to accumulate.<br /><br />When are you moving here already!?Kate Coveny Hoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18006589284938683965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-24930642127268780922010-09-16T17:30:19.161-06:002010-09-16T17:30:19.161-06:00I still haven't got my place ready for picture...I still haven't got my place ready for pictures so my hat is off to you. It looks really cute and cozy but I hear you about the bait and switch. Our landlord told us there were bed linens and towels and kitchen stuff galore. We got here and found see-through worn out sheets, a few towels, and some mix matching glasses. So we too, have been Targeting. I am trying to get a second HHE to justify buying all this crap. <br /><br />Sorry about the detached guest room. I would totally put Tiger in there now because he cries all night and I have had it. Guest room? Could you rent it out on the side? Play room. The possibilities are endless.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04837319071695368552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-11247795252994933952010-09-16T17:29:59.141-06:002010-09-16T17:29:59.141-06:00It's adorable.

And so is the beach. The kids will probably remember sharing a room fondly one day, though I can see how sharing the bathroom could be less than optimal. <br /><br />It's not cool that the owner misrepresented the house knowing your situation.Daniela Swiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15375056786777183752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-16533257472412613602010-09-15T07:56:06.052-06:002010-09-15T07:56:06.052-06:00This is an adorable house!

I've only seen India and dreaming about FS housing is one of my favorite things to do! <br /><br />And Omg, I think that cottage is absolutely darling. I would move in there in a heartbeat. I truly think oversized is overrated. More space to clutter and clean. But I am sorry they were not truthful with you, because yea, a detached 3rd bedroom for a single mom w/ kids is a big deception.Bfileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17657766918735380467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-26714073607636509692010-09-15T07:08:18.808-06:002010-09-15T07:08:18.808-06:00I love everything about this place - except that i...I love everything about this place - except that it didn't come totally furnished for you! Hopefully you got to hit target when the kids were in school at least?! And I'm so impressed that cans keep Libby off the furniture - we have to literally COVER our furniture with other furniture to dissuade Dublin. And even then, he sometimes manages to knock it off to find the softest spot in the house. ;)Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05615149112130152767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248196462677139259.post-9310840759403513092010-09-15T06:49:00.569-06:002010-09-15T06:49:00.569-06:00Your house it cute!
