It seems like almost every corner of the house need fixing. And it’s such a shame, since it has a wonderful exterior. So, how did your house hunting after that?<br /><br /><a href="http://chicorarealestate.blogspot.com/2014/11/do-neighborhood-check-before-buying-home.html" rel="nofollow">Naomi Walters @ Chicora</a><br />Naomi Waltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07144995641031039113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1515069729502883563.post-91689270625928398422013-01-09T07:47:57.114-08:002013-01-09T07:47:57.114-08:00What a shame.

The house is so big and construction dust dirty it is overwhelming. Most of the time you'll find me in a corner knitting and refusing to face reality. And we have a new kitten that Charlie brought home from college. She is a garage cat for now but she comes in to play when we are home. I'd better go dust but I am considering an afternoon of retail therapy.
