We signed the papers on the new home. Final selling price was $400,600 which was considerably lower than where we started. The builder has been very fair with us. We are not going to move in until next week (most likely) except for moving the boxes we have already packed into the garage. We're trying to get the painting done first. Or at least as much as possible before the furniture is moved in. Debra and I were so sick over the weekend that we only managed to get one and a half rooms painted, the grout sealed in a couple of rooms, and the blinds up in the master and master bath. Being sick sucks big time.
A couple of comments on painting though. No matter how much the little gimmick painting accessories say that they make painting a breeze. . .they're lying! It still gets all over you and anywhere you really don't want it to go. But, like so many people, I fell into the trap of buying and trying a lot of these little helper tools. Oh well. Here's some pics of one room being painted. The colors didn't come out quite right. The darker color is really more of a sand color but the pics show a lot of mustard look due to the lighting.
