I have to admit, the house is looking good! The painters were back at 8am until about 3 and the cleaners, four of them, were here from 10:30 until about 2. In the end, we’re just about set for pictures today. First though, I need to finish cleaning out the wine cellar, clean up my desk in the basement, get all the clothes put away off the dryer and finally, clean off the fainting couch upstairs. The garage is what it is. To throw a wrench into the whole day, I have a pallet of wine arriving sometime this morning which needs to be unpacked and then repacked into boxes and then sent or picked up by Fed Ex to go to Georgia, Virginia and South Carolina. Thankfully it’s only about 40 cases meaning only 10 will stay here which will have to sit in the house somewhere. So there you have it, if we were looking for a house in this neighborhood, we’d buy this! Who knows, it could sell in a day or take months. I’m not planning on it selling right away as that wouldn’t be very smart but it’d sure be nice.
The painters painted just about everything yesterday. They did a really good job and it was a pretty good deal too. These were some of those hard working illegals who were good people, not the bad ones. I think there’s far more hard working immigrants who just want a better life than criminals but there are too many criminals. Even these guys hate the bad guys. One guys wife still is in Mexico and he sends money home weekly. He and his 8 year old son live here. Just a different World. Not sure they pay taxes as they only take checks or cash but they work hard and are good people.
It’s now 6am and we’d better get moving. We went out to dinner last night so we didn’t mess up the kitchen. I told the kids they can’t eat in the house anywhere anymore until it sells! Time to run, hope all’s well, God Bless.
