I think I would probably pass out if I were to win the Royale Reno-cation Contest. I mean who couldn’t use an extra $13,000 to put towards home renovations and a fabulous 11 night Caribbean Cruise vacation? That money would come in very handy right now considering the state of our home. Currently, our kitchen is completely gutted and I mean right down to the bare bones people. No sink. No counters. No walls. We had zero insulation all winter which cost us over $10 a day in oil heat. And worst of all, John has no money to fix any of it. So what do I do…well, I improvise. I do dishes in the bathroom sink and use the stove as my counter space. The rest of the kitchen supplies has moved onto our dining room table. I think you can see where I am going here…I would use that money to help him fix the kitchen and put insulation in the rest of the walls in the house. I am soooooo tired of living in renovation hell with no end in sight!
As for my dream vacation, I think an 11 night Caribbean Cruise sounds amazing! I would never turn down an opportunity to go. However, if I had to pick my ultimate dream vacation, I know it would be to go to Europe especially to visit Scotland and Ireland. My best friend lives in Italy and I am hoping to be able to get over to see her someday soon.
Now is your chance to make your dreams a reality. The Royale Reno-cation Contest is your opportunity. With a Grand Prize of $13,000 to spend on a home renovation and an 11 day $7000 Royal Caribbean cruise for two on the “Jewel of the Seas”, you don’t want to miss out on this one! There is additional $5000 in prizes to be given away to secondary winners in the form of 15 weekly prize packs from the Royale Luxury Bath Collection that include a personal heated towel rack, new luxurious towels, and premium Royale robes.

My list of priorities includes:
-a second full bath in our basement
-dry-walling and painting in our rec room
-new carpet in both our main floor bedrooms
-new carpet in our basement (rec-room and 3rd bedroom)
-a new front door (does this count as a renovation?)
-a new fence
-new kitchen appliances (specifically a range and a new refrigerator)
-a new countertop
I'd also love to put some money towards our upcoming honeymoon (right now we are considering a cruise)
