myJaxonIf we don’t go crazy once in a while, we’ll all go crazy. - Hawkeye

It’s official. We closed on the house this afternoon. Jesse and I are now homeowners!!! We don’t actually take possession until Sunday, but it’s all ours. No more dealing with Indy Mac (the bank from hell), no more waiting, no more searching, no more nothing. All we have left to do is move our stuff into the house on Sunday and it’s done.

I’ll post some pictures next week, but we really don’t have that much to do on the house once we get it. I’m not saying we don’t have things to do, it just doesn’t seem like all that much. We’re going to change the locks (obviously), and some of the rooms don’t necessarily need to be painted (but they will be eventually), but most everything we need to do is maintenance related. The bathtub/shower hardware needs to be replaced, a couple of windows are cracked, and the back gate that gives us access to the park needs to be fixed, but other than that, everything else isn’t all too major. Jesse is going to come back and say it’s all majorly important, but we’ll still be able to go at our own pace and not one predetermined by the house.

So yeah, we are now officially $100k+ in debt and proud of it!
