What a weekend!
Yipee! We got our house! Our stress with the preparations etc. to purchase the house is now over! Another stress comes into play though....new home expenses!!! LOL! Oh well, we'll deal with it as it comes along. We're really both excited with moving in ...which is not until July 1st. Last weekend, we did some minor cleaning on the house...I mean, I did some minor cleaning...JR did other stuff like taking out the ugly wallpaper from the master bedroom! It took the almost the whole weekend and I fel bad for him yesterday so I helped him...hehehe! Now, we're both in so much pain!!! So a piece of advice, don't use wallpaper! It's sooooo tedious to remove! The agony of being homeowners again cuz the expenses hurt! Imagine, we had to buy carbon monoxide/smoke alarms for each floor (there's 3) and they're almost $70! We also replaced the locks for safety reasons. Replaced the toilet bowls too but we'll be getting a rebate of $60 each for the 2 that we bought because of WaterSmartPeel. I managed to call the utility companies for the new house and on Friday, Direct Energy will fix our water heater & Bell will install the satellite dish....I might have to take a day off for this...huhuhu! We got more work to do on the house but it feels good though knowing that we're working on our new home...sigh! Too bad spending money is part of it!
I picked up Jarrod's Pokemon Emerald Official Guide book at Chapters today. We figured we owe him this and a Pokemon Emerald game since he's been very good in school and he's the best reader in his class! We're so proud of him! Hopefully, his grades will stay the same or get even better when he moves to his new school in 'sauga.
No wedding updates yet, slowed down last week because we were concentrating on the house. Maybe I will check up on the invitations since it's now May! Whoa, time flies!
