Property Virgins No More`

We just bought our very first home!  We signed the paperwork on Friday and changed the locks on Saturday!!  We have A LOT of work to do before we feel ready to move in.  Plus, we've paid for the storage unit through the end of February, so to get our money's worth from that, we're going to make a few minor adjustments in the house before we move our stuff in.  We literally inherited a house almost fully furnished, so we have a lot of sorting of junk to go through and get rid of furniture we don't want or really need.   

I'm off to price carpet today while Nick and dad go over after work to fix a few items in the house that need fixing right away.  There is some surface mold in a few places that has to be taken care of and painted over, as well as a few closet doors that need to be replaced.  Hopefully I'll get a good price on decent carpet and have that all set up to be put in soon. 

So, we'll get in the house sooner rather than later.  Now that we actually have the house, I feel it's a daunting thing to get everything ready for us to move in, but I know it'll be worth it in the end!
