New House Update June 17, 2009

Today was our inspection and appraisal of the DC house, in case anyone missed my status updates.    I must say I love Facebook in all sorts of strange and time-wasting ways.  One of them is cyber stalking my friends and family. lol  Got a call back from the realtor and everything looks okay with just a few exceptions.  Some wiring in the kitchen is a bit wonky, but that is an easy fix.  She is more concerned about the leak in the downstairs (basement) bathroom, and is contacting the selling realtor to find out what they can do about it.  Hopefully this doesn’t throw a kink in the acquisition of a place to live in just a few short weeks, so please keep your fingers crossed!

Hope everyone had a chance to check out the pictures, I really love this new place.  I thought for the longest time I would like a quaint little historical home, but in our price range that just means tiny chopped up rooms with some cute windows and a fireplace.  I enjoy the open floor plan much more, especially in the square footage range we have been looking at, it just makes it easier to move, sprawl out, and have plenty of space for the animals to relax, even if we have company.   Maybe when Travis starts making the huge teaching bucks we can afford a historical mansion with lots of open space, but it will still have that old world charm.  Ha!
