I'm happy ... really.

in TTC after 35
So, my husband and I closed on our house today! We are very happy. But it was a little bittersweet at the walk-through, when we were trying to figure out what to do with our 2 non-master bedrooms. My husband thought that we should use my favorite room for the nursery. I was thinking how sad I will be if my favorite room ends up being a guest room forever.
This whole process stinks. At least I know you ladies can sympathize. We've had a nice run of good luck on the board; I hope it continues!

Re: I'm happy ... really.
Congrats!! Enjoy the house and try not to think about the nursery. Hard I know..
I gave up a year ago on the nursery and painted it grey. We bought the house in July 2010 and didn't paint it at first since I knew I'd want it a specific color.... when that didn't happen, it was like the room was taunting me month after month. I finally said screw it and we had it painted.

Try to enjoy the happiness of your new home today. Worry about what to do with that room some other time.
Congratulations on the house! I completely understand how you feel but definitely try to enjoy the excitement of the new house and setting up all the other rooms for as long as you can
Congratulations!!
I totally get it. We are buying a house that has 3.5 bedrooms in a great school district with faith that we'll have 1 or 2 kids. It's going to happen!! And it it doesn't, we'll just have to cross that bridge when we get to it.

Thanks, ladies! I knew you all would understand. I hope that we all get to plan our nurseries soon!
Emikat -- we don't have any projects to start on immediately. We are going to get a refrigerator, grill, and lawn mower this weekend, and that's it for now. Oh, and doors for the bathrooms -- the previous owner was disabled, so the doors were all removed. That should be our number one priority! We plan to do a major project each year, as finances allow. I think the first thing will be to get rid of the 1970s bathrooms.

That is a sweet story about your parents, though.

Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive. Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)

Congratulations on your new home!
I did the same thing, sort of, we renovated our condo last year and the only room I didn't redo was the current "man cave" which I am saving to paint a beautiful mural on the wall eventually...(I hope)...for now it is just a dirty room of Grateful Dead memorabilia.
