barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: Fantastic, another Touchdown.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris and Barbie try to say goodbye to the guys....no luck

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Maybe we can get their attention through the window? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: If it wasn't so cold, I'd strip and try and to get their attention! 

Chris: They really are hopeless! 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

After class the girls head toward Vickie's Vintage.

Trish: Hi, ladies...anything I can help you with in the Flower shop or greenhouse?

Chris: Not today, I REALLY need some boots...wow, did you clear all the snow yourself.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Trish: It's not too bad, the concrete heats up and we haven't had that much snow this week. Good Luck shopping, Vickie's is always great. Don't forget Valentines' Day for your guys.

Barbie: Well, if you have some flowers shaped like footballs, I'll be back.

(chortling) 

Trish: My dad and brother are the same, can't pry them away from the tv this time of year.

 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Sis, are you going to look for anything...?

Barbie: Um, maybe some shoes for Chelsea, but it is hard if she's not here to try them on.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: I do have a coupon I could use????Hmm, lots of great things on this rack.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: This turquoise jacket is gorgeous.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Look at these Pink boots, I don't know which I like better?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I'll have to get some help!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Well, two of these are your size...do you want to try them both?

Chris: Oh Yes, Please!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

These are perfect for shoveling the driveway. But, not really great for show or going out?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: These would be perfect at the mall, or the dance floor and in your size.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Thanks for your help, I'll wear the galosh boots, can you wrap those up though, please.

Vickie: Of course, anything else we can show you?

Chris: No, I'm in enough trouble now.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Zoe from upstairs: Barbie, Chris, let's do lunch this week!

Girls: Sounds Good, stunning outfits up there!!!

Meanwhile back at Chris and Rob's home.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

So, Skipper it's your turn...you have to beat six flashes.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: Here goes!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: Keep Going!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Suddenly Grumpy cat reaches up and hits the keyboard 9 times in a row. 

The girls give up and go upstairs. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Grumpy Cat: (Sore loosers). 

Foofie: (I don't care, they left behind tasty sandwiches.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

White Cat: (Are you going to share a little?)

Grumpy Cat: (Hrumph...maybe a little.)

What's New for the New Year 2024 with Ryan and Richelle.

Ad-Free Blog

We are at Ryan and Richelle's new digs, and they have an interesting discussion with Midge and Alan.

Midge: Wow, I sure love all the space you have here. How did you ever find this place?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: It was my cousins, and he sold it to me to avoid re-doing stuff and to save on the realtor fees. It was a family exchange sort of. We Saved a lot of money, and it's still in the neighborhood we are familiar with. It really is big for us right now. Actually that is why we asked you here.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Alan: Yes, we have been looking for something affordable for quite awhile. What do you have in mind?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Well, we thought you might want to rent part of the house and share this floor with us.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Midge: I've been living out of a suitcase at my aunts, and Alan's lease is up in the New Year and it's increased with extra HOA fees and astronomical if he stays.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Well, if you might be interested, we can take a quick tour! Let's start upstairs.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: We haven't done a thing in the house yet, my taste isn't pink, but we may have to just deal with it, here in our bedroom.  I want to make a work station up here, and change the dresser out for a real closet.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

We do have Ryan's mom's pooch. Mortimer is really old, and sleeps a lot. He only appears at meal time, so be forewarned.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The upstairs bathroom is huge. You would be able to use the tub, but there is a full size bathroom with shower downstairs level.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The main floor has this living/dining room and table for four for meals.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I'm moving this to create a work space upstairs, mostly because the light isn't great and it would be in the line of traffic.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The kitchen is really quite complete. 

Midge: Great appliances and I love all the shelves.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: The fridge is huge, and there is plenty of storage. We could figure out some sort of system for cooking. Carry-out is so expensive now, and of course we are trying to cut expenses since we have this house.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

This is the current island, which I may move to the center for traffic flow. We will see how it works.

Midge: The stairway goes down to the rooms we would have?

Ryan: Yes, and the garage is down on this level.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Richelle: Here's the garage.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Yep...and we have it already full of 'stuff'. Let's check out the main room.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

The basement was basically a man-cave. We brought our bed from the HFIM house...and it has great storage drawers underneath. There is plenty of room under the stairway for a closet. The wall bookcase is really anchored so it have to work around it. I had a desk under there, but the bed had to go somewhere.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: Here's a couple of old snapshots from before we bought the house. 

barbieolldnewgreenredo

It's really a flexible space!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Here's the space for storage under the stairs.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

But, there's this great closet by the bathroom.

Midge: Anything is better than living out of a suitcase.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ryan: The bathroom is great and the shower is the best, that's one thing we are going to add upstairs. 

Alan: Looks great and plenty of light down here too.

Richelle: I think it might be a good idea for you both. So what do you two think? Would you like to make this a duplex for awhile, and as long as you want?

Alan: I sure do, Midge what do you think?

Midge: As long as I can take a bath once in awhile, even though showers are fine. And, I love to cook, so I'd be happy to take that on.

Ryan: Let's work out a simple contract and you can both move in, whenever! 

SO

Welcome HOME to Ryan, Richelle, Midge and Alan's place.

 Wonder what they will do 

in the New Year?
