One week ago, we ACTUALLY signed all the papers and officially own the house. It's been a crazy hectic week and I've barely had time to write much! We couldn't get in until Sunday since Old Friend's new place wasn't ready until Saturday.
We drove by Saturday and he happened to be taking his last load so he waved us over to give us a few updates. His son had a few things left, the garage door openers were on the kitchen counter, the windows were to be delivered this week and he 'cleaned as best as he could'.
It's still filthy. But...he did vacuum and the counter tops and surfaces were wiped clean. We still have our own cleaners coming on Friday morning.
Sunday afternoon, we started painting! Kyle's room, the hallway, the bathroom all got some paint. Monday night the carpet guys came to measure for the new upstairs carpet, Tuesday night we painted the family room and got the radon unit install scheduled for next week and this morning a painter came to help us with the living room which is a two-story, so it's WAY too high for us to do.
The movers come on Friday, and we should be officially in the house by Saturday night. yay!
I can't wait to start posting before and after pictures!!
After living in a small 2 BR condo for 3 years, we were finally ready to move into a bigger place, take on some landscaping ourselves, and to stop sharing a wall with other people! Here's what happens when we decide to build, instead of buy someone else's house!
We're building a house. Can't be that hard, right?
We're embarking on a home building expedition, and here's what we have to say about it!
