Hi!! Welcome to my blog. :Wave:
Happy to have you here...not sure what you are looking for but what you see is what you get. Heck, I have no idea what I could even blog about that anyone would find interesting but there are lots of things folks watch, read, and listen too that aren't really interesting so what have I got to lose?!?
As for introductions, I am BzyBee and my whole clan is around here somewhere. DH and two kiddos...rapidly turning into real people from the children they used to be.
We coupon and bargain hunt, the kids go to school, DH and I putter around with projects around the house, I work from home, we are debt free except our house, we enjoy our quiet life and family time.
There will be more to come on the above subjects..and probably others. Interesting?? I'll report....you decide.

What would you expect to find in a master bathroom of a home that is 3000-5000 sq feet and costs $350,000 - $500,000?
DH and I went looking at open houses as part of a Parade of Homes. I was hoping to see some nice bathrooms and get some ideas for tiling. It was so disappointing. We saw homes that cost half of a MILLION dollars and still had a white fiberglass shower pan and standard aluminum framed shower doors. I was expecting to see stone tiles and frameless shower doors.
Some of the tile was very cheap, and not very attractive IMO. We also saw some cheap fixtures and questionable finishes..sloppy caulk, shaky shower doors and a bathroom vent that was loud and vibrated so much we thought it might blast off through the roof.
I wouldn't pay $500,000 for what I saw today.
