PARTY!! I have an offer on the house!! (Running around with a crazy grin on my face.)
The offer is close to what I’m asking, so that is close enough. So, basically I make enough to almost cover the $15k loan I took out for the sewer and roof repairs last summer.

WHEEE!!! =)
The roofers came back out on Saturday and have hopefully fixed the roof. It rained like mad on Saturday night and so far no drippings inside the house.

It rained a lot on Thursday and all day Friday. Inches of rain and some ice. West of me, like out of the barn, there were trees down and power outages. It poured and poured. Thursday night I could barely sleep because I kept hearing the rain and thinking it was Kiesha purring. The water…
