House owner, part 1
Well, we own it now . . .
TBO and I are the proud owners of a house, with all its blemishes and weirdness. It is currently a death trap, with electrical miswiring all over the house, so we can't move in yet, or get our appliances, or much of anything. The alarm is always beeping when we arrive to unload stuff, but we can't turn it off permanently because we don't have the code, and the inspector was unable to find the control box. There are so many items on our "to fix" list that it's scary, and the realtor has us convinced that we should call the home warranty people first in order to get some things fixed under their contract. Of course, they don't have our contract ready yet, so we can't order any work from them. We could simply call the electrician, but the estimate for all the work was in the thousands, and it would be nice to reduce that a bit first.
Yikes and 1/2!
But, it's all ours, yay!
