Well folks, the plot thickens. We miraculously landed a two week loan rate lock extension. Yay! But we are about to lose it, yet again, because our builder missed a few important dates because he went on vacation. To think we were moving out under the cover of darkness on Nov 28th and 29th sure […]
It’s official. The Enginerds have moved out of the Maison and are now living in temporary housing until Château closes. Woop woop! Leaving the keys was a bittersweet moment but we were ready to embark on the next 15 year journey together. The house had been with us 10.5 years and it was too small […]
You’d think that finding a pet friendly hotel would have been easy since it is a trending subject but after a thorough search of rooms near us, we found only one that really was all inclusive of pet breeds: La Quinta Inn. A few Best Westerns and one Extended Stay America were willing to take […]
This year has been horrible and it keeps getting worse. The election results… The DAPL… The resurgence of White Supremacy (which was always there though)… To top it off the Château will be delayed 3 more weeks and if our Plan A doesn’t work out, we will be officially homeless come November 30th. Many friends […]
Our moving on up story took a turn for the worst recently when the water and sewer district postponed the work to hook up our utility connection. We don’t have a due date from the county and with a closing date of November 15th on our current property, this delay puts us close to the […]
Turns out that the inspection showed that the roof of Maison Enginerd needs to be replaced due to defective material. The shingles, made by CertainTeed, have visible granule loss and deterioration not common to ten year old roofs. So, what gives? A check of the internet confirmed our worst suspicions: the material was manufactured incorrectly […]
Yesterday, September 28th at the 11th hour, we got word from our realtor that our current house was under contract! Yay! The buyers accepted our counter offer and come November 15th they will take over Maison Enginerd. Woop woop! In 10 days or less the house will pass inspection and after that we get to […]
In the middle of the move, packing and painting the old house, I managed to slip and fall down our stairs. My behind slammed down on two steps after a second of airtime which is about 175+ lbs of force right into my glutes. Needless to day I am literally going to be butthurt throughout […]
There is so much promise in moving and starting over in a new home that it would be hard to contain it all in one page. The apprehension alone of having to pack boxes and not forgetting that you moved when coming back from the office is a welcomed change. However, I am taking the […]
