house for sale! cheap!

Well this homeownership stuff has been an absolute blast, but we’ve had enough. Its been… what… about 7 months now? We’re done.

I walked into the laundry room/mud room at 5:30 and there was at least a half inch of water on the floor. I had just finished laundry around 4:45 – thats why I came into the room, to check if the dryer was done and I stepped into a puddle. The floor was bone dry when I was in there earlier. (What utterly and completely boggles my mind is that Husband had just walked through the flood — and didn’t notice!! MEN!!) 
Anyway, many towels and hours later, we are pretty dry, but rain is in the forecast for the next 4 days. Meanwhile, words like “regrating,” “french drains,” and ”thousands of dollars” are floating through my head.  I guess we’ll have to focus on soccer and teach the girls to say, “scholarship.”

So, back to the beginning, we have had enough of this homeownership crap and will be selling our house and moving in to a nice, rented apartment. Then when something goes wrong we can just dial a number and have someone else take care of it. That sounds really, really nice…..
