Final Walkthrough

In the midst of an April sleet storm, Mom and I did the final walkthrough of the house tonight. I hadn't been in the house since February, so it was hard to even remember what the house looked like.

The previous owners left the house filthy! There's dog poo all over the backyard, and the backyard grass is dead from the dog digging it up, and garbage on the front porch... these things are easily fixed though. The inside is full of dirt, the bathrooms are dirty, the kitchen stove is a mess, the living room walls all will need to be repainted etc... Everything will look fine with some hardcore cleaning, that's why Sue is here!

We were surprised to find that the sellers left us with a heating corner fireplace and entertainment center. Not so excited about the swingset. We don't have kids and probably won't for a couple of years, so we don't need the swingset. There is also a tire sandbox in the back yard that is highly unnecessary. We've requested that the seller remove these items.

In other news, Mom and I went to Earl May garden center today because sometimes they have rescue cats and found a cat whose cuteness comes close to Sierra's. Its a tiger/tortie so it has the bulls-eye tummy and has the cutest little face...he is little also. He seems like he has a lot of energy and is soo loveable. We put a 24 hour hold on him. Its a bit impulsive, but I'll take Chance to meet him tomorrow. He kinda looks like this one:
