I’ve received two notifications on the house today for two showings: one this afternoon at 1:00 and another tomorrow evening. Wow. Lots of activity but no offers. I know the house has an odd floor plan–that’s what happens with additions and remodelling–but it’s still a great house at a reasonable price. How in the world…
Things have definitely picked up with the house. My real estate agent thought that activity would pick up with spring and she was right. There is another viewing scheduled for tomorrow evening. Each time I have a note about someone viewing the house, I always wait to see if there will be an offer. So…
I had two problems with WordPress since I updated to 2.5.1 last week: the trackback field disappeared and no one could leave comments on the posts. The issue turned out to be an incomplete upload of the wp-admin/inludes folder. Once I re-uploaded the folder, the trackback field and comments-enabled options re-appeared on the Write New…
I was randomly reading web pages and came acros a site called Photo Basement, a site that contains humourous modern day and historical photos, some times captioned and some times not. The photo sets are pretty funny. The set of what happens when geeks have kids got me laughing, especially this first image: Related Images:
What Is Your Battle Cry? Hark! Who is that, rampaging amidst the candy store! It is Ceffyl, hands clutching a mighty sword! And with a spectacular roar, her voice cometh: “I’m seriously going to smack you into a fine spicy powder!!!” Find out!Enter username: Are you a girl, or a guy ? created by beatings…
Another showing tonight for the house. Maybe, just maybe, someone will like it… I keep hoping that the right person will see it and fall in love with it. Related Images:
My real estate agent called me at work today with an update on what the indiviuals who had looked at the house thought of it. So… No real good news, unfortunately. Three people thought the house was too expensive (even though the price has been lowered by $10k from the original price). One couple really…
I’ve been trying to get things unpacked in the apartment. Some days, like Wednesday, I’m super productive. Other days, like today, I’m not even close. I unpacked maybe one box tonight. Shuffled things around. Just didn’t have the energy after work to do much. Instead, I will probably opt to go to bed early. Tomorrow…
Okay, kinda related topics — more that they happened on the same day than anything else. House showing and allergy update. The house is showing this evening! Woohoo! That’s four showings in one week. Hopefully one of these will result in an offer… The house has had a lot of traffic but no serious inquiries….
Yesterday I went to the doctor for this sinus obnoxious thing I’ve developed. She gave me a prescription for sulfa-based antibiotics and sent me home. I took my first dose last night. Looks like I’m allergic to sulpha-based antibioitics. I broke out in a rash that has moved all over my legs and arms. I…
Okay, I did some heavy praying this on Friday/Saturday in hopes that the house will have good showings and that the person who is meant to have the house will find it (and hopefully buy it). Since Friday, the house has had two showings. I just got a notice for a *third* showing tomorrow! Related…
Maybe this will be the week when things change for the house. There is another viewing today. It’s been a long time since I’ve had more than one viewing in a week. My real estate agent and I lowered the price on the house, too. I hope it sells soon. Paying rent + mortgage is…
Maybe things are picking up. The house has another showing today from 02:00 PM – 03:00 PM. So that is two showings in a week. Not too bad, considering that it was several weeks prior to the last showing… Related Images:
Here is some great news: I’m picking up the keys to the apartment today. With the help of some co-workers, I’ll move my stuff this weekend. Arg. Third floor apartments have a great view, but getting things up there sucks. Related Images:
Tomorrow at 11:00 AM someone is supposed to look at the house. Here’s hoping they like it! Related Images:
