No, I haven't forgotten to update you


Okay, I would just like to say that this whole home-buying thing is a real pisser. It has been totally absurd and terrible and stressful. I can only hope that the actual home-owning is better. (Please let me believe that it will be.)

We gave the sellers a list of demands that we asked them to fulfill or give us our deposit money back. Well, we finally found out 2 weeks later, that they are fixing the furnace and giving us money toward the other repairs. So, it looks like it's going forward unless the bank craps out. Which is certainly possible. I have found out that anything is possible in this game.

So, this is part of what we will be mortgaging if all goes well:


Our glorious future bedroom

Just look at that beautiful ceiling!


And who wouldn't want a duct-taped chimney thimble complete with creosote stains? And what a view through the cracked window glass!

And that closet!

What more could a gal want?
