Also that tub sounds AMAZING! Moving is so stressful but all the upgrades you're getting sound pretty spectacular. They are both awesome! Today is a good day despite an air quality day that made it difficult to breathe. That was only part of the day. We started out by going to the title company to sign paperwork, and that went well. Our realtor gifted us with a $150 big box hardware store gift card too! We then dropped off some supplies at the house (The TP and soap we got yesterday). We then went to the post office to get keys (we live in one of those subdivisions where all the mailboxes are grouped together like in an apartment complex). After that was lunch, then the big box hardware store, where we used both the gift card and a coupon and got: blinds, a mower, a weed eater, hedge clippers. two kinds of rakes, a shovel, pruning shears, bypass loppers, contact paper, miscellaneous bathroom towel and TP holders, and wasp spray. Tonight is small group. 12 Quote Current Challenge Original 1,2,3, R 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51 "By the Most-Righteous-and-Blessed Beard of Sir Tanktimus the Encourager!" - Jarl Rurik Harrgath Link to post

That shopping sounds like fun home stuff! I love tinkering around the house and gardens. Thank you! Today is a good day. A headache went away! I also got a haircut. We then went with a buddy of mine to get the fridge from the scratch and dent place. It came off the truck just fine, but we are going to have to take the doors of the fridge off to get it through the doors of the house. Not a problem normally, but I left my tools at the apartment. It was too late to go get them as I had to get ready for work. We'll go back tomorrow morning to finish the job. Our realtor also delivered keys, a garage door opener, and a $250 gift card from the sellers. 11 Quote Current Challenge Original 1,2,3, R 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51 "By the Most-Righteous-and-Blessed Beard of Sir Tanktimus the Encourager!" - Jarl Rurik Harrgath Link to post
Tanktimus the Encourager Posted June 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 Today is a good day. Back to the house to finish putting the fridge in. We managed fairly quickly, but couldn't find the valve to turn on the water to the fridge. After going home and getting some lunch, I gave it one last try. We had texted the realtor, who went through the seller's realtor to find out the valve is upstairs in the water heater closet. I found it and it works great on the fridge end, but the valve itself leaks. We are using our home warranty to get a service call done and have the valve fixed. 10 Quote Current Challenge Original 1,2,3, R 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51 "By the Most-Righteous-and-Blessed Beard of Sir Tanktimus the Encourager!" - Jarl Rurik Harrgath Link to post

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk No. In the negotiation phase the sellers had said something about a gift card to defray the cost of blinds, and that was the origin of that particular gift card. These sellers were very accommodating. The fridge itself doesn't need water, but the ice maker and drinking water dispenser do That panel on the left is recessed. The black vertical rectangle is a lever that can be pushed to dispense ice or water, depending on the controls pushed. That particular model can dispense cubed or crushed ice. 10 hours ago, Snarkyfishguts said: Nope, that’s pretty rare. My folks were thrilled to get a binder of appliance manuals and house facts.

As someone who did all this six months ago my advice to you is live with what you have for a while to work out what you truly need. It's hard to know just by looking how you're going to live in the new space and you're not going to live in it like you imagined.
