Less than 2 days (new house stuff)
« on: January 17, 2007, 10:19:53 PM »
and we will have everything settled! I hope. We have cleared all the subjects on our new house except confirmation of the sale of our old one which is supposed to be done Friday. I haven't been stressed by any of this until our house actually got an accepted offer on it and I had to wait a week for them to deal with the subjects. Only thing that is really stressing me is that one of their subjects is a home inspection, and we haven't been notified of one to occur. Hopefully this doesn't mean that they are backing out of the deal.

Oh, and we picked a different house than the original one I showed you. Here's the one we put the offer in on . http://www.okanaganlands.com/homes/mtbeav983/

Good luck Krista. I hope it all works out for you. Is there room for a pond in the back yard?

Talk about "To the Manor Born"
Great looking spead Krista - And lawn and tree, and best of all, that strip of dirt down the side of the driveway, just begging for your personal touch.

Thinking good thoughts

Oh well done!
Hearty congrats Krista. Now, do we need to start picking internal colours, or is it up to snuff already?

Cheers,

Mike

Oh boy!  How exciting!  How are you going to use the big room downstairs?  Maybe a private retreat from the twinadoes?!  ;D

Thanks guys :)

Mike, I like most of the paint, at least not enough to change it. The kitchen is red though and it's not my fav. I'm going to live with it for a while though and see if it grows on me.

The big room downstairs will be part playroom for the twins  and part studio for me for when I teach my paper craft classes. Need to get that set up ASAP so I can keep making money :)
