New house
Written on Tuesday, April 25, 2006 by Jessica
Bob and I bought a new house. I haven't even bothered to update anybody, I guess b/c I'm just too engrossed in Kidney Bean's blog. I might've mentioned on it on K.B.'s blog simply b/c K.B. is the reason we're buying a new house.
We closed on the house a couple of weeks ago. Today we learned that it didn't pass the insurance company's inspection. Our homeowners' insurance coverage will lapse in thirty days. It'll take a couple of weeks to get the reinspection done, which means we have two weeks to fix the problems. Bob has to tear down a decrepit porch, build some handrails, and build new stairs.
Congrats and Bummer. Hope you're up on all the HGTV and Trading Spaces tricks of the trade. I'm looking forward to a tour. My husband tells me it's nice!
Bob, Bryan and their dad have already taken care of most of the issues the inspector had. Tore down the decrepit porch and built brand new stairs in just one afternoon. They're quite handy!
Uncle Dan says it's nice?? He must be looking past all the remodeling wreckage. :)
Oh, that's not right. Clearly, she's a "dog person" and not a "cat person."
Oh, that's too funny. I embarrassed you on your blog b/c I was too sexually explicit. :) What can I say? I guess I have no shame. :)
Yikes!! I have to admit, when I looked at that porch, it scared me. LOL
Oh, that's right, didn't I say it looked like a death trap??
You probably did! I think I replied that we were tearing it down anyway. I guess I didn't know how soon!
