Glitch

I have been trying to post for a while now updates to my blog about my new condo, but there appears to still be a glitch in the system and it will not let me upload pictures. It hasn't provided me with the upload button now for about a month.

Sorry to keep you all waiting.

Don't sit on the edge of your seats in anticipation anymore. You can relax. I will post as soon as "The Button" appears again.

Merry Christmas

I'm Back!!!!!

Merry Christmas!!!!

 

Condo Update:

Cabinets brought:

Then installed:

 

Ceilings throughout un-popcorned and smoothed and textured ready for paint:

Ready to go living room: The entire bottom floor is in the middle of being tiled in- they started yesterday, will finish tomorrow.

After tile, counters are next. But I have this sneaky feeling we'll be all moved in before then. Paper plates, plastic cutlery and plastic cups and take out food here we go!

 

My husband already packed part of one room for me and informed me we don't have a lot of stuff. But he used about 1/2 the boxes I've brought home already! Good thing the order comes in at work today! I'll save every last one of those boxes- unless they had raw meat in them of course!

 

I'll probably not find the time to post for a while at least not till we have our Internet set up at the condo and are situated a bit. I feel we have a lot of junk and I'll be busy making piles again to get rid of stuff so we can find a place to sleep!

 

Have a good couple of weeks until I post again! We'll have Internet for a few more days until we move, so I may update on the tile! I'm thrilled it will be finished before we move in this time!!!!

Wah Lah!

Scene of the crime with the prime suspect: (guilty eyes)

Yup! I fixed it with elmers glue and mud and paint!

No one will notice right????

Close up. It looks 100% just the same! You can see also where I touched up parts of the paint along the windows... I'll have to sand after it dries, then paint.

I popped the screen back on just before the appraiser guy came into the back yard. He never even knew the screen was off. I told him that the white part would look just as good as new before the house sold because see? I started working on it.

 

Hope he agreed with me... We'll know by Monday or Tuesday.

I can't wait for my husband to come home!!!!!!

Guess What I Came Home To?

This:

He chewed through this board:

Tore the screen right off and bent the 2 metal clips to hold it on:

Mess:

And tried to chew his way into the house.....

What ever shall I do tomorrow....

The appraiser is coming 9:30 AM...

Hmmmmmm. gotta think of something... Do you think she'll notice? Maybe I can just put a flower pot right on the door step....

 

Hope you sleep well. I'll be up all night fixing the door with mud and paint. SHHHHHHH..... Don't tell the appraiser.

Dehydrated Apples

Remember these?

They are now this:

I now have dehydrated pineapple and apples to munch on while we pack and move.

 

We had the inspector and a termite guy here at our house yesterday and they had a meeting and showing with the people buying our house. While the inspector was talking with the guy in the kitchen, the lady was looking at the other side of my house and asked my husband why the inspector was so nit-picky about showing every tiny minuscule hairline crack here, or this spot there or... So it sounds like they don't care about the tiny things that don't matter. They've already made up their mind; they want our house. She told my husband she hopes all the paperwork and appraisals finish by the end of the month so they don't have to wait till the 9th next month to move in.

 

So do you think I should start packing yet???

                                                 I dunno and think I'll wait a little longer just to make sure they get the house so I don't have to unpack it all again.

Yum

It always amazes me how condensed food can get when you dry it.

The 2 jars are my dehydrated pineapples. The apples are next.
