And family cloth because someone mentioned that in some countries, they don’t flush TP, so I thought of that |

To be fair, they did change their name in the 1940s, but unless you’re old enough to remember that, it’s Nordstrom, no S

Also, it’s NORDSTROM not NORDSTROMs |

Looking at the pictures and the description it has:
master and 3 add'l bedrooms on upper levels, plus a basement level room shown as a gym that could be the 5th bedroom
dedicated office on main level plus an existing built in office nook near kitchen
living spaces include living room, family room and sunroom on main level, plus family room, game room and playroom in basement
Lots of space to get away to when siblings are on your nerves!
And large main laundry on 2nd level with a 2nd W/D near back door so very convenient for pool towels But does it have a claundry? 🤪
I doubt it! Hopefully it has a laundry chute at least for Dons massive clothes, the master is on the third story! And there is a basement too, lots of stairs with little kids... |

They are almost 40 and are ready for a finishing home. Sure, traditionally. But it seems to me Tens is a bit of a troll .. I could absolutely see them upgrading when the kids are a bit older. Maybe something with ensuite bathrooms for the girls/kids. I definitely don’t think whatever they buy will be their forever home (if they even stay married that long).
That house has two additional bedrooms with en-suite baths on the second floor and then also a third full bathroom on that level. It’s an older home and might be a bit quirky in layout in my opinion. This is a huge step up for Tens. |

| QUOTE (WhiteChristmasIsMyFavoriteMovie @ 8/6/2021, 23:47) She hasn’t changed her name on Facebook though!! Why do you think she hasn’t??
Because facebook is for older people who couldn’t possibly understand their new modern family? And/or would be pissed that they weren’t invited to the courthouse/small celebration... maybe she doesn’t want to field all the comments from her FB “friends” until they’ve closed on the house and have a reception date solidified? Totally projecting here, I’m her age and those would be my reasons. |

| QUOTE (Idiot savant @ 8/6/2021, 23:27) Would 5 bedrooms be enough? Five kids in four bedrooms would be tight, no room for a guest room. Yuck.
It has the potential to transform into her “dream house” All 5 children will be part time in their home, going back and forth between the other parents houses. So I could totally see a fun shared bedroom/tree fort, sleepover type room situation vs dedicated rooms for each child.
For instance:
bedroom 1- girls shared room
bedroom 2- boys shared room
bedroom 3- nursery
bedroom 4- guest room
Plus, it has an office and workout room. She could make a little kitchen desk when she remodels that dated kitchen. I don’t think Tens obsessively works out, she doesn’t need to because she’s naturally slim unlike Jen. So maybe the workout room could be repurposed? |

It has a pool, and her pinterest suggests they are looking at a house with a pool. It's also on a golf course which obviously Don would like. There's a little fenced in garden plot, which would appeal to a family that cooks, and big basement game/play area. Only 5 bedrooms, but again...pins make me think they are looking at some shared bedroom situations OMG that pool area is amazing. But is there no law/whatever in IL saying you have to fence your pool in? Gene 1.0, I guess we're just going to talk about your replacement while you remain silent&stewing.
I had that same thought about the pool fence... |

Yep, because many of the people who use the family cloth think that bleach is tOxiC and only clean with essential oils. |

Do octopi even have balls? My Google machine must think I’m high today.
Fried balls of octopus meat (I think) 😆 |

| QUOTE (Idiot savant @ 8/6/2021, 22:34) QUOTE (SeeminglySweetLikeJen @ 8/6/2021, 22:26) Exactly. Mr. Seemingly Sweet quite enjoyed the heated seats and blow dryers on Japanese toilets. American toilets might as well just be outhouses. On the Real Housewives of Dallas they were all bragging about their Japanese Toto toilets. Like, it was a storyline. Apparently they are getting popular in the US.
We are building a house in the near future and are budgeting for the Toto and not just the seat, the real deal. We installed a bidet in our RV and flush toilet paper... I cant fathom living somewhere that they don’t flush it! |

American toilets might as well just be outhouses. At first, when I first tried the heated seat I found it gross. After a month, when I came back to Italy, I missed that the most.
Mr. Seemingly Sweet vanished into a museum bathroom, 20 min later her came out with a smile on his face 😆 That was the fanciest public toilet we found in Japan. They also still had troughs in the floor at some train stations, I couldn’t deal, I held it until I found a “western” toilet. But we rode the train all over and visited some smaller villages not just the big cities. |
