I know I said I wasn't going to go at home improvements here like I did in Seymour. I also said I was going to take my time and not get in a hurry. But it feels like progress is nearly non-existent and I'm getting a tad frustrated. Where's the stuff I need? I can't...
Home Improvement
heating and air guy coming today – probably
Today, the sellers are sending their favorite heating and air dude to fix the outside unit that controls the upstairs. Near perfect days right now, I don't really need either... but it won't be long until I'll be thrilled to have everything working. Gimme that stubby...
toilet paper on the right or left?
As I sit here trying to get motivated to get something accomplished today I'm thinking about which room to tackle first. I figure I should start with the worst, smallest room. That means the downstairs bath will be one of the last rooms I'll be working on. It's also...
burn barrels and fire bugs
It's been a minute since we've had a burn barrel but we own one again. Trash just got a whole lot easier and is another excuse to light a fire. Perry and Katie (not Katie Perry) have this thing about who is better at it. I shared a photo of Katie flexing over the fire...
can you put in a driveway in the rain?
I don't know the answer to that, but I'll betcha I'll know by tomorrow. The Thursday driveway work was delayed until today -- Saturday. But it rained off and on all night. No clue if anyone will show up today other than my favorite son and granddaughter... and I can...
here but not an owner
We've moved in for the most part but the closing won't be for another couple weeks. The buyers gave us possession and have yet to get a copper penny. I'd think that would be risky for them... good thing I absolutely LOVE it here. Take my money! There's a lot I want to...
the struggle is real and i’m really struggling
Haven't shared anything for a few weeks because I've been too busy packing. Not just packing, but purging too. Perry and I filled a 4 ton dumpster with stuff we no longer wanted, as well as stuff that Teddy ASNr left here in the attic. Just a couple more days here and...
a to do list i can’t do yet
I'm to the point that even my dreams are filled with thoughts of packing and moving. It's not enough that I spend time during the day to pack, but I do it all night too. A month long hiatus. I told my brother and boss on 8/15/22 that I was taking a full month off....
stakes are placed by the stakes
The survey on the place we're purchasing is complete -- I think it is anyway. The surveyor has placed stakes beside the stakes placed by the owners to show where the line should be. Pretty sure now all that is needed is the paperwork on the survey to provide to the...
