DH thinks it's an nail puller. Hey, HE'S the engineer!

I don't have much of a choice about how to spend the first day in the dream home. The puppy (chihuahua), no matter what time it is, comes in, licks my DH's face, and says it's time to go OUT! NOW! Then everybody gets fed -- cats, pup, humans -- and a quick walk for Princess (the pup) to leave her "mark" on everything possible. Then I'd go walking through the house trying to find the perfect place for my workroom -- I do machine embroidery and quilting -- then choose a spot (probably at the other end of the house) for DH's "stuff". He'd spend the rest of the day installing his computer, TV, lounge chair, books, and all the detritus of a long engineering career in there, and probably try to figure out how to grab another room or two for all his "stuff". I'd be arranging my stash of fabric, six sewing/embroidery machines, computer and my things in my chosen room -- which would have a fantastic view of the surrounding neighborhood. Now the hard part would be deciding which would be more lovely - a morning view or an afternoon view! The cats would explore the house, looking for the perfect place to take a snooze, and the puppy would take over the entire place, as pups tend to do. We'd have to have a party for the family, and let my daughter and her DH and the grandkids decide where THEIR rooms would be for when they visit and let them start to put their imprint on those rooms!

After that is done, another walk through the neighborhood would be perfect before dinner. Altogether, we would have a lovely, lazy day staking out our "spaces", and just wander into the kitchen and family whenever we were hungry and help ourselves to the spread of goodies waiting to be devoured. My daughter and her husband would be in charge of that, since she's a much better party-planner than I am!
