Cool bought a house

Well I am pumped up now! We just bought a new house and it will be done in Feb-March. We just had a meeting with the builders and picked out all the tile, carpet, counter tops, etc... and it was all fricken cool. The best part is the garage, and the understanding the wife has about my mustang and the need to work on it all the time. It is a 2 car garage and it is all for the 79 stang. Yep, I talked to the builders and got a crap load of electrical outlets, and a couple of 220v for my welders to be installed. The ceeling will have 6 flourecent light fixtures and the floor will be sealed with that grey shop paint stuff. It will light up like Christmas in there. It conected to the house so it will have heat and A/C and the garage door is insulated to. It is great and the wife dosn't mind parking out side because of my car and all the tools and stuff The 93 stang and her 3000gt will have to tuff it out for the winter while the 79 keeps a shelterd life.

Congratulations, Wade! That's great.

My wife and I built a house 3 years ago (gosh, time flies!) and it was one of the best things we did.

Again, congrats!

Cognrats on the house and sweet garage. I only wish my parents would of done our garage so that it was heated. It becomes way to cold in there in the winter. But it's insulated so the cars stay fine. It's a 2 car garage aswell. I just hope our next house or my next house which it may be will be a 3 car garage.

Enjoy,
§am.
Oh... and take the wife out for a nice fancy dinner and bring her flowers so she doesn't change her mind. Once they start building then your home free.

She is cool for sure. I said she can decorate the house any way she wants if I get the garage.

I think I should take her out to a fancy dinner to seal the deal. I will be a gentleman also... I will even carry the tray
