Let The Work Begin

Well, I first put and offer down on the house 44 days ago. 23 days ago was the first scheduled closing date. All that aside, as of this past Monday I am finally own the house. Don't be fooled, CHASE (the evil bank devil) still made everyone at the closing wait a full hour and fifteen minutes in order for their incompetence to fax over a signed document. As you can probably tell, I am fed up with CHASE and they will be seeing what little money I have move elsewhere even if it cost me too much to refinance. Just had to vent.

Well, the work has begun. So far the my mom and sister(s) have been wreaking havoc on wall paper and they have alreadytaken down in the front room and the office. All of the cabinets are out of the kitchen and the funky pantry was torn down last night with the help of my brother-in-law. I have taken up some carpet only to find that finished hardwood only remains in the dining room and front room. The office, downstairs bedroom, and kitchen all have larger plank boards under the existing flooring. This is a slight disappointment, as I was hoping the office would at least have that hardwood flooring already but I guess that is how it goes.
Today and tomorrow I am having a new furnace and heat pump installed. The price was about a thousand dollars more than what I wanted to spend but again, that is how it goes. I am planning on having my stuff moved in this weekend so I can start living upstairs. The bathroom must get put into working order for this to happen. Looks like a busy weekend. Well, thats it for now I will have pictures coming shortly. One last shout out to my college buddy Doyle for asking me why I haven't updated recently, at least I know someone is looking at this so I will keep updating frequently.
