Housing thoughts

[lillilah]

My stomach is a bit better today. It should be okay soonish. I've been having fun looking at different decorating options for the house. I think we may go with stained concrete floors. There are a lot of different options, and they are pretty cheap. I'm interested in trying out different staining techniques to see how they work. I guess I'll need to make some squares of concrete, let them cure for a while, and then try staining them. I'm trying to think of all the things I've learned over the years about housing, like how much I hate grout, since it always gets moldy. We're thinking of at least some terracotta colored walls, since they look so nice and warm. We still want medieval-looking, so we'll see. Sadly, I think any kind of enclosed bed will be a bad idea, since it will get hot quickly. Joel says it gets a bit hotter there, so we are definitely going to have to think about that.
