house hunting went very well. of course it was the hottest day of the year so far (112!! ack) but we struck gold in the very first (and only) home we went inside of - a great place to rent in la quinta (for the next year of so).. 3 bd 2 bath.. just shy of 2300 sq ft.. it's newly renovated, new appliances (still with tags!), 18" travertine floors in kitchen, bathrooms, and great room, covered patio for my outside room. ;) the master suite is massive.. two areas for bedroom section + sitting room/office. french doors lead to side patio from the master and great room.

it's so nice that we won't have to do any work (panting, etc) at this house and can just move in. we're both very excited about the place. it isn't 100% until the keys are in hand early next week so i'm just hoping everything works out! i hope to be able to show you it furnished here in the next month. thanks for all your well wishes! :)

hope you have a beautiful sunday!
