The house...

Long story short...I promise....

I was outside one day when I noticed the house across the street was for sale. We really needed a bigger place now that my wife had her own business from home and her mother was moving in with us, so I decided to call about the place just out of curiosity. The asking price was magnificent, and the accepted offer was even better.

There is a significant amount of damage inside the house, but nothing structural - the majority of it is cosmetic. A few slabs of drywall and some fresh paint should do the trick nicely. I'm sure as time goes on, we will end up doing a LOT more than that however, so I have decided to keep track of it in this blog, just in case HGTV shows up for one of those cheesy home improvement shows, like "If Walls Could Talk" or, more likely, "In A Fix" - I have a feeling I'm going to get started on a LOT of projects, but finish very few of them, the In A Fix crew may just come calling on me....at least I get that nice red tshirt and Sheila gets a trip to the spa. :)
