Just Simply Holly

You know, I love my husband with all my heart! We’ve been together for more than 17 years and married for over 16 years. But sometimes he comes up with the most off the wall ideas! It’s not that they aren’t good ideas; it’s just that they come out of the middle of nowhere!

For instance, here’s his latest idea. We’ve been talking about getting things together to make an official offer to buy the house we are currently renting. The house is AWESOME and we love living here! The lot that it is on is more than 2 acres and it is surrounded by protected woodland that will never be developed. We’ve talked about the things we’d like to do if we do get to buy it.

The house itself is an “L” shaped ranch and it’s about 1500 square foot. The “L” part of the ranch was added on and consists of a second bathroom and the family room. What we’d like to do if we buy it is expand this part of the house all the way over and make it a rectangular house and make the family room double it’s current size. My husband said that if we did that, he’d want to make it so that the front living room would then be a game room and in the middle of it would be a pool table.

He even went online looking for furniture and accessories to go in his new game room and told me he had found the perfect chairs at www.borderbilliards.com, then pulled up the website to show me. I have to admit that the Mahogany chairs he showed me were beautiful! He also showed me the light that he’d choose to hang over the pool table.

I guess the only thing that makes him talking about this so off the wall to me is that neither one of us have ever been big billiards players since we’ve been together.  I used to play a lot of pool in my early 20’s, but don’t think I’ve played a single game since we’ve been together, except online.  But I honestly think it would be something that we all would be able to enjoy as a family!  I guess we’ll just have to wait and see whether or not we can make things work and buy the house first though!
