Re: RE: help a little girl?

Well in a week-long day and night marathon I finally finished renovating the house in Pennsylvania. It's big, was built in 1912, and lets just say that it was a heck of a lot of work. Well it's done now and it is awesome. New walls, floors, windows, doors, paint, carpet, fenced in half of the 3 acres... yeah pretty much everything. Well we moved in this past weekend and it feels good. Still unpacking and getting the kids adjusted but loving every minute of it.

Still haven't moved my computer yet which is why I haven't been on in a while. Things will normalize soon... see ya then.

Then I have to get to landscaping that place... it looks like Jurassic Park :lol:

Congrats on the new homestead! Just give a call and we will all drive thousands of miles to break in your new neighbors with hundreds of jeeps parked infront when you throw your house warming party!

RE: Where do you even begin?

the actual moving part sucks, but being in a new place is always fun.

Congrats, TC!!! Hope you enjoy the new place..........3 acres, huh?? I'm drooling! We've got one but we prefer the Jurrasic Park look!! (especially since most of it's on about a 1:1 slope!!!!). Glad you're done and can sit back and relax awhile!!!! (But, being a homeowner, is your work ever REALLY done?? :shock: ) Hurry up and get back online!!

I know how that work goes. You have my condolences

Yeah, my house was built in 1921, apparently long before the invention of the tape measure and carpenter's square. Not a lot of fun sheetrocking a room that loses over an inch and a half from one end to the other......

3 acres? Wow......that's enough for a house, a big garage, a mud pit, AND a little miniature rock garden to wheel on :lol: I'm selling my house next year hopefully and moving out into the country a little further so I can have more land.

1 1/2in? That's it?!!? Some of the old farm houses in OH would drop about 3-4" if we were lucky! My Step-Dad Jim's bathroom leans UP-HILL towards the shower so he can't take but 5min showers..... but the levelness of the house is the good side..... How about some of them old stairs? 15" long and 6" high to 6" long and 15" high and everywhere in between :roll:

I am going through the opposite here in the south. All the communities in FL are new. The house I bought was 12 years old and the realtor actually said this was one of the older neighborhoods .....hahaha

 

[bchcky]

yeah, its the people in florida that are from 1921
