The Home Stretch







We are less than a month away from our closing now. The appliances and the backsplash are installed in the kitchen and there isn't much left to do inside but install the carpet in the bedrooms and do some touching up. We still need some paint outside and a yard and landscaping but it will be done before we know it.

A Rock and a Hard Place




We stopped by the house tonight and found that we have hardwood floors (which are covered in a special technologically advanced protective layer of cardboard). We also have the granite countertops in the kitchen and the tile in the bathrooms. Most of the painting has been done and it's really starting to look like we could live there. We're hoping for a driveway and a patio by the time we return from our trip to the windy city.
