Looking, Looking, Looking...

Now that we have a contract on our house....FINALLY..., we are looking, looking, looking. There is just NOTHING in this area. Well, there are houses, but a lot of them are not in good areas, and ALL of them are way too HIGH!!!!
I love open floor plans, and would love to have that, but I don't necessarily HAVE to have one.
We don't have to have a place for the pool table, but we sure will miss it....does anyone want to buy it from us? 
We don't have to have a lot of land, just enough for a small garden and for grandkids and Sox to be able to run around.
One thing we do NEED and want, is storage. My husband loves to work in the yard and do all the repairs himself, and, therefore, has a workbench and tools, etc. Seems not many houses here even have a garage, let alone a workbench type area.
We love to barbque and entertain outside, so we really would like to have a nice backyard.
Painting, is something we can do, and so is taking down wallpaper, even though I HATE it. Seems like every house we look at has acres of 1970's or 1980's wallpaper....blah!!!
Things are so $$ here in Monore, and it's hard to put my mind around the fact that I'm going to have to give up my nice, updated, big home for a small, very dated, run down home, which cost $70,000 (and higher) more. 

Well, gotta go look at some more houses.....bye!
