Stressing the house Progress

Well, I drive by the house atleast twice a day, not to drive myself nuts on purpose or anything, but because I have to take the kids to school and then pick them up, The house is right in between where I am staying and the school. It looks like nothing has been done to it yet, Its driving me crazy. It is supposed to be done at the end of September and I do not see how that can happen when nothing has been done to it. Here are a few pis of the outside of the house, it was to dark to get any good before shots of the inside of the house. But I can assure you that it is a mess, the fire that was in there did, some good damage to the walls but not the structure. And the plumbing needs replaced because it is so old, and all the electrical needed done as it was an electrical fire!

Its so hard, but I know that this will be great for my family once we get out of this camper and into a home that will be ours.

The American Dream Comming Soon!

Well me, my dog, my DH, 3 DD's, and our 3 chicks (yes, baby chickens, lol)  are still living between a hotel room and a camper while we wait for our house to be finished. It does not look like it will ever be finished and we are talking about moving on instead of waiting.. I really want this house but I am ready to have any house at all. I just don't want to have to rent and this house is a great opportunity to buy, but I am going stir crazy..

It looks like the house will be ready at the end of September.. That's not really that bad, when we will be able to own a beautiful, house on a few acres that we can do what we want to on. DH and I are so sick of renting. The town is absolutely perfect. A tiny little town in western Kentucky, with such a sense of community. It's the American Dream and is almost in our grasp.
