BREAKING NEWS...

We interrupt your regularly scheduled blog reading with this breaking news story. After only 8 days on the market, I've received an offer on my house! The contracts have been signed so now it is up to the inspector to be nitpicky and figure out what all needs to be worked on or "allowanced". Hopefully it won't be too much, especially with all that I have been working on. The most impressive item in this story is that the offer was exactly what I was asking. Amazing.

Also in breaking news, the vanity top supposedly has arrived at Lowe's (according to the purchase order tracking) and I should be receiving a call from them to go and pick it up. Once that puppy is in and the back door is painted, the house will be complete.

We now return you to your regularly schedule blog reading...

Anybody want a house?

Well, as if it wasn't official, my house is now on the market. Here you go...

The Master Bath Series, Part VIII

A quick update while eating lunch. There has been much progress in the master bath since my last update. Paint is up, fixtures are up, lighting is installed, loo is installed, and half the grout is installed. The only three things that are left are to do the last of the grout, install the baseboards, and then install the new vanity top when it arrives. Soon...hopefully soon.

Random Updates

A lot going on at the moment...too much to grasp at times. Here are the highlights:

• Saw three tornadoes (well, two confirmed and one possible) two Sundays ago near Channing and Stinnett. Total miles driven - 217, total cost of gas $40. A few pics are forthcoming whenever I can find time (HA!).
  

• The packing has started. Pictures have been pulled down, personal items you can't put a price on packed away to be sent with family, and the to do list continues to grow.

• A new backyard fence is going in after the old one was falling apart. Gotta make things look good for prospective buyers.

• It's hot...as in 105 degrees hot. TOO hot. I'm afraid my A/C will explode on me one of these days.

• Official move date has been set for the middle of July (right before I report to the center of the South Plains). I still haven't looked at a house yet at my new location; hoping to get that taken care of in the next couple of weeks.

• I'm totally addicted to Super Smash Brothers, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart on the Wii. Now all I need is to get all of those games AND the game console.

• The master bath continues but progress is being made. Still patching some drywall and getting it shaped right. It stinks being a perfectionist. Will go and order paint and a loo in the next couple of days.

Back to the grind...
