I’ve not been very active keeping my blog up to date recently. Lots has happened. My sister’s bone cancer operation, the health issues with my father-in-law, my repeated illness (2010 has become year of the common cold for me). Most of which wasn’t very positive.
Now I have something to share that is very good news: I am in the process of buying a house.
I closed the deal on the price on friday. After some heavy negotiations I managed to get a price for a nice 3-story house which was acceptable (and affordable) to me.
The catch is: the house is pretty much ‘bare bone’. There’s a kitchen (without appliances), bathroom and toilet present but that’s about it. The big task will be to put down the floors and put up the wall paper. We’re also looking into replacing the kitchen and having all the windows changed into isolation glass.
I’ll get the keys on the 30th of November: December will be a busy month, in which I will take up all my remaining vacation days to spend on preparing the house and moving over. Hopefully we’ll be done by Christmas so I get a few days of rest before work starts again.
It’s going to exciting times. Perhaps very busy and slightly stressful, but very exciting as well.
To all friends: clear your agenda’s and calendars in December. I might call upon you. 😉
