Progress??

Well, I don't know how many people will check back in to this site. Here is the weekend progress. We went to a used appliance store and found some pretty good deals. We bought a fridge, flat top stove, and dryer for about 600 dollars. It will be a start. Not the best but it's what we can afford. So, about 1 hour after we bought them - they delivered them to the house and hauled away the nasty ones in the house. So, that was the good news. There was a little problem with the water valve. So, Matt worked on that Friday evening and Saturday. Saturday evening the water was turned on. There is some gunk in the lines so we'll have to see about that....

Tiffany came out for my birthday weekend. Unfortunately, we didn't know that we would be so busy working and cleaning. The poor thing. ha ha. Friday night, Tiff and I cleaned some more in the house. Tiff wiped down the kitchen cabinets while I cleaned out our fridge. Both were pretty big tasks.

Saturday we had breakfast at IHOP. We weren't that impressed. Except that all the meals are HUGE - TONS of FOOD! Tiff and I split a breakfast entree. Then, we took a break from cleaning and saw Magnificent Desolation at the IMAX. After that, we cleaned and cleaned and cleaned some more in the old house on Foraker - to get it ready to leave. (While Tiff was cleaning the top of the cabinets - her head got on the way of the fan. Ouch. I guess her job was more hazardous than mine.) All while Matt was working over at the house on Church St. Tiff and I took another break in the evening. We got cleaned up and went to hear the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Tiff was quite impressed. There was a serious violinist as a guest and he got a standing ovation... which finally turned into an encore. It was cool.

I guess that's all the updates on the house. Keep checking in. Oh yeah. And pictures will be coming.... but, the cord for my digital camera is in .... um..... one of these boxes.
