Siiiigh - the sellers of the house we're trying to buy are being real jerks; they didn't get the water turned back on in time for the official home inspection by an engineer, so we had to reschedule that, then the day before the rescheduled inspection, they got the water turned on - and discovered that the pipes had not been properly drained before shutoff, so there is water/ice damage to the pipes, which has to be repaired. So the repairs are supposed to be today and tomorrow, but when we drove by there today, there were no signs of anyone, plumbers or otherwise - AND, the selling real estate agent had refilled the box with new brochures!! Excuse me, we've got a signed contract, a title company lined up, our loan lined up, and a supposed closing/settlement date already scheduled, and you're putting out more brochures??? I am getting sorely tempted to tell them that their failure to enable the required inspection invalidates the contract, so give us our earnest money back and we'll go play ball elsewhere.
No, we haven't done much else that's very interesting over the last week, which is why the first post of the month isn't till the third. We fed Cindythelibrarian's cats for a couple of days while she was at the PLA conference in Minnesota. We had the usual round of rehearsals. Our new passports arrived in the mail, and my, we're ugly. That's about it.
