Oh where to start!?

Well, for starters we found a place to rent for the 3-ish months while we wait for our house to be build. It is an Acadian looking house in Abbeville. Pretty cute actually and even has a fenced in yard for Samara! Lucky break, really! The downfall, is I will be paying our mortgage and our 1st month's rent for August! Blech!

Second, we did some shopping! We finally decided on a sofa and a dining set! We also bought a new fridge! You know, it's harder to spend money than you think!! lol Especially when you have to call your bank and tell them to allow your purchase! lol




I am in LOVE with the furniture we've chosen so far!! All we need to do now is select our bedroom set and buy the new TVs.

BTW, our salesman....we'll call him Byron (lol).....REALLY cool cat!! I can definitely see hanging out with him in the future! Regan really liked him too!

Today we did the pre drywall walk through with our builder! It was definitely more fun than it sounds!! I also got an estimated date of completion.....and we are looking at being in by mid to late October! I am going to just assume we'll be in by November 1st, since the weather here and hurricane season is really not the time to be building!! I didn't take any pictures today, but we have a front door, some windows and partial bathrooms! Once the drywall goes up it will definitely take shape and probably go pretty quick if weather doesn't play a part!

Also today was the inspection done on our house by the buyers! Can I just say I feel violated! Coming home and knowing someone was going through every inch of your house just leaves me unsettled! Not to mention they left the gate open and Samara got out. And everything he touched today, he was rude enough NOT to put back! I am not pleased right now! I also was expecting a phone call early evening since the inspection was at 1 pm. So I am a little annoyed about that.

Bub and I always seems to buy from and sell to those people that pull out all these tricks and screw us over! When we sold in Oregon, that lady really screwed us out of money! When we bought this house, the buyers put random pictures on the walls to cover the holes and bought and left rugs to cover all the stains and bleach marks! Sneaky! We are so not that way, but I have no doubt these buyers will try to screw us over somehow! Ugh!

I was telling Bub that I am glad we are not having to deal with a buyer and a seller.

Well, there are lots of other things going on at the moment, but I will save that for another day! Just thinking about it all makes me exhausted! LOL
