Done

December 11th, 2006 at 11:45 pm

We are now homeowners (again for me 1st times for DH. We hit a small snag when doing paperwork but it all worked out in the end. Now all I have to do is clean it (yuck) and paint and do windows in several rooms and sew curtains and buy/install rugs and make a bannister and decorate and get dressers (rental had built ins) and replace 2 toilets and replace the shower mechanism and fence the yard and... and... Does it ever stop? We will be doing a little at a time since we are now broke! I can't believe we bought a van on Friday and a house on Monday. This has been an interesting week an dI refuse to add to the forum on "what did you spend today" today!!!!

    Congratulations!

    No, the fixing up never stops. We've owned this old Victorian for over 6 years now and we've hardly begun to fix what needs fixed.

    Enjoy your van and new house!

    Congrats on being in your new home! I had to laugh after the hurricane. Before, I looked like I had been hit by a hurricane because I had so many repairs to do. Now, I actually HAVE been hit by a hurricane, now I have an excuse for all the ongoing stuff here.....

    Nanamom, welcome to the wonderful world of home ownership. You're gonna love it.

    Loved the comment about refusing to post in the spending today thread.

    Applause to you! Wow! A van and a home! You are wise to not get overwhelmed and just take it a little at a time! Hope DS will love his new room!
