We offically moved in last night. This was partly because I had the water turned off in the old house too soon, but we are in. The cats are in, and I have the scratches to prove it.
The dogs are in and loving the backyard. The fifty pound puppy was a bit freaked, and when […]
We have no internet, so I am quickly doing this from school. We hope to move the animals and the rest of our things today. The old house gets cleaned tomorrow, and we turn the keys in Wednesday. We sleep there tonight!!!!!!!
Carpet tomorrow. Internet tomorrow. I will update in a few days.
It began with the hundred year drought. The sky opened up on Monday and the rain has been falling ever since. We failed our final inspection on Monday because we did not have a railing around our basement steps. Ann jumped into action and by the time I got to the house, she […]

I have no photos, but I will tonight or tomorrow. We went out yesterday to take a light and it looks like a real house. The grader (grater?) finished it all up and picked up all the junk in the yard. It is an amazing job. The electrician hung all the fixtures, except […]

We still hope to be living there by the 25th. It would […]

Our house should be ready for its Certificate of Occupancy inspection two weeks from Monday…..and then the next day the power will be turned on. Then we can move in! We will be moving before the painting is done, but we are moving!!! We are moving before the deck and porch […]
Maudie is staying in the cat hospital for the night, and that is hopefully it. They do not know what is wrong with her, but they hope to figure it out tomorrow. I certainly hope she is ok.
We interviewed deck guys today. One of them really had some good ideas, and I liked his perspective. […]
That is what we did. We fired the crew of workers….or should I say nonworkers. They finished the framing as the guys hung the drywall. They had the nerve to say we were their side job and that they could not promise when they would work. Well, we said bye.
Today we are working on getting […]
