The Money Pit

It's been a while.

Since that last post, sold the house, moved into the new one only to find the previous owner's bank had taken possession and we were about to get evicted. Finally, got legal possession ourselves. Between our original offer and the time the house became ours, we discovered the garden had gone to pot, sheds and other landscaping items that should have remained with the house disappeared and additional, unwanted items (think car parts, broken aquariums etc etc) appeared. In addition, with the removal of all the furnishings from the house, the true state of affairs was revealed. Ad. said 'newly renovated'. *hysterical laughter*

So. Currently in a state of frantic stripping up carpet, sanding floors, painting and a million other renovation jobs. Maybe I should rename myself TheDIYwoman?
