Our Yellow Home Is No More

February 15th 2009 was our last time in our yellow house. All keys have been passed to the new owner who are ready to move in on the 22nd Feb. Yes we managed to sell it just at the right time. The buyer is actually our left side neighbour whose old mother lives at the end of the row. The mother wants to be closer to the daughter, so that's why they decided to buy our house. A good buy it was too, we had to reduce the selling price a little bit coz we didn't want to take the risk of not being able to sell this house since times are bad.

Mal and I went in to take a last look at "our" house, memories that we have built in there for the last 3 years started to playback. Oh how we will miss this home...

my kitchen... yellow mellow, I'm gonna take those 2 free standing units with me :) As Im writing this, the 2 units are already in our rented home ;)

Mal waving bye-bye ;(

it's all empty


Notice what's left in the garden? I pulled out most of the mother's tongue plants to plant in the rented house. It all started from one stalk!

Had to leave the orange shoe cabinet behind. Custom made to my specs.... how I love it.

This bamboo tree is only 1 year old. We watched them grow from 4ft to more than 8 ft, and from 3 stalks to more than 10. I hope the new owner doesn't chop them off.

Did you wonder where sunny boy was all this while? Hmmph, he was busy playing with the buyer's 2 children in their house. Didn't even wana say goodbye to his yellow home. Had to beg him to come out from there to take a picture with us....

We are slowly getting adjusted to our rented home. I'm liking it more and more, love the spaciousness and the big garden. Hope to be able to show you some pix later...

My house is also painted in yellow (only the outside) but mine sin't as bright as yours. You're right... The bright yellow is definitely a cheerful colour. It cheer me up especially when I come home after a hard day at work ;)
