We closed on our new home on December 27th and we have had quite the adventure so far. Who thought a new home would have so mnay repairs! Here is a brief list of the challenges for the "new" house.
1. No Refridgerator - The fridge was removed a few weeks prior to closing -
2. Electricity - Our main panel was stolen from the outside of our home - so we had no heat or electricity for a few days.
3. Water - Because the house "winterized" we had to turn the water back on to the house after the heat was working. OH - they didn't know how to winterize and we have a broken pipe to the hose connection outside - that will be a fun spring project.
4. Dishwasher Repair - Although new...it leaks. One more repair!
5. Missing Lights! - Our main entry light and two fans were missing. I hope someday to have those installed.
6. Light bulbs - although minor we have replaced most of the light bulbs inside and out.
7. Wood Repair - In the moving process we have damaged some furniture and handrails, etc.
8. The Garage - I am blaming this incident on my pregnancy. I went to my car in the garage and opened the garage, got on my phone, got inside my car, pressed the garage door opener (again) and backed into my closing garage door.
Eventhough we have had a few set backs we are so extremely happy to be in our new home. Thanks to everyone for their support and happy words!
