There have been a few things that have happened since I wrote the last post... We had an inspection done on the house from the pictures below and it wasn't good. There was extensive water damage from all sorts of places, the roof, windows, and poorly designed porches. There was also a lot of sub-flooring problems in various parts of the house. We can't be exactly sure to the amount of time and money the house needs to get it in tip-top shape but Cole and I do agree that we are not in a position right now to handle a project like that. The house is gorgeous and it is a shame the structure has not been taken care of as it should have been. So we had to get out of that contract and move on. So today we placed a new offer on another home in Ozark (yes that's four offers we've put in, I think that's a record of some sort). It's new construction in a nice quiet and wooded neighborhood. It's also super close to where Cole's going to be working. So pray the negotiations go smoothly and we can move on this quickly because the walls are closing in on me!!!!!!
Tip of the day... Always get a home inspection done on a house you are putting an offer on, there are many things that you cannot see!
Cole and I also went up to Atlanta to drop off our cats (it's not fair having them cooped up in a hotel room and now they get to play with my parent's cats) off at my parents' and helped them move some stuff to their new lake house. It is beautiful!!!!!! I can't wait to go back for the 4th!
Without the cats we were able to move on post into a room that is cheaper and has a small kitchen so that's good news.
So keep us in your prayers because it's tough being in a one room hotel with the same person all the time! You really don't know how annoying you are until you live in such close proximity with someone for so long, LOL!
TTFN,
Beth
