We have it! We got our house! Wheee...

Here are the pictures from the inspection: House pictures from inspection

Now I have to figure out what to do with the thing!

Nybble wants to upgrade the outlets (his words!). I want to upgrade the faucets in the bathrooms. The kitchen faucet is actually really cool--pull out spray with a switch between stream and spray. I need to measure the ovens and see if our pans will fit. I should figure out paint swatches and stuff. There's so much to do!

For one thing, we have to come up with a name for the place, though Utter Chaos North will probably stick, to mirror Ratri and Gu's. I should probably also mimic their house stuff list. Here goes--I'm including things that we will be buying to get the house into livable shape

  • New outlets--three pronged and some face-plates for the ones missing them
  • Paint and related accessories

  • Drywall and the related things for putting up drywall

Yard and stuff

  • Seeds or plants for a flower garden--need to see what comes in first
