Hard week

I am some kind of tired tonight. This week was hard on all of us. We finally found a house we quite liked last friday, and have spent the rest of this week doing all the things you have to do before you take the crazy step of putting in an offer: another viewing at the open house, home inspection, setting up all the paperwork for the offer, lots of discussions and talking, then the offer itself, which was last night. Now, we didn’t get the place, which wasn’t very surprising to me as i kind of thought that it would go for crazy money, but it is still a tiring experience.

Unfortunately there is no rest for those that want to buy a house and then sell their current one! Doing some drywalling/patching this weekend, which will be … interesting. The only other drywalling i’ve done is with full-sized bits, and this is patching a cut out hole from a lathe-and-plaster wall. I’ll give you all the low-down later.
