beans get spilled sometimes, it's just life

Cheldear asks:

You okay? Worried about ya... You haven't blogged in a couple of days....

Here's the short story, although not the full story (duh, it's short): Hay and I are selling our house. It goes on the market tomorrow. We've spent all week (and really he has spent much longer) preparing it for sale. Last night we completed staging of the upstairs and tonight we completed staging of the downstairs. Our realtor takes photos for an online 360 tour (you can spin around the home!) tomorrow.

Couple this with the fact that work has continued to be busy and you have an absent Poppy.

So, yah, hi to you all! Sorry I dine and ditch. It's not lack of love, it's lack of time.

Ooh - 360-degree view of the French palatial estate! Email me the URL once it's done, k?

Yes, I agree with Avi--I want to see Chez Poppy in all its glory!

Poppy said...

Avi, only if you promise to buy it. (Kidding, will send the URL out to the chosen ones when it's up.)

Poppy said...

B, don't you worry your pretty little head. You're on the chosen one list.

sourpuss said...

Am I on the list, too? Or do I have to beg?

sourpuss said...

I forgot to mention, I love the art of home-staging before sale. I watch all the shows!

Poppy said...

Sour.

Do not be redonk.

Of course you're on the list, sweetie. I packed your scented padded envelope in a bin the other day. Who does that for someone they're not going to bother adding to "the list"?

Poppy said...

Seriously, the house has never looked this good. It's too bad it took us selling it to make it look so nice. We are sure that the chair rail in the master bedroom is going to sell the entire house, as is the new front walkway to the beautiful porch, but staging it will put people over the top in love with it. Depressed market, so we are expecting it to take a while to sell. (Wanna buy a house?)

And I miss the birds and squirrels and butterflies and rabbits and cecropias and frogs and Kiki and the flowers. :(

Stefanie said...

Can I be a chosen one? :-)

Poppy said...

Stef, I totally landscaped your home and I have an aerial view of your home on my desktop. Of course you're on "the list"!!! (ooooooooops, wrong list)

Yes, you're on the list. :)

(It's gonna suck when someone NOT on the list asks if they can be/are on the list, isn't it...)
