When we first moved here.. My husband, daughter, and I would drive down this beautifully scenic country road by the river and think... Ooh I wish we could afford buying a house on this road. Then we would drive by this large A-frame home off the road that was for sale and my husband would say, "That's my dream home... But we could never afford that..." For almost two years, every nice day we would take a drive down that road and see that house.. And say to each other, I wonder if someone had bought it yet.
After my husband got a raise and I got a small part time job we started house hunting... One of the first things my husband did was request to see that house. It was exciting to finally see inside, especially after we found out the price had been lowered ... A lot. We liked the inside of the home... Even though it needed some updating, there was a lot of space and the yard was a very nice size. So we kept that house on our mind as we looked around at some others. Even though there was quite a few options my husband really loved that A-frame. And that is where we start this story....
We bought an older home... Need I say more? Lol.. It was owned by a very, very, very old man... Should I go on? A single older man with his divorced old son... Needless to say we had a lot to clean. More then we even could see when doing the walk through the house with our Realtor. First thing that took us back... The cat pee smell in the living room......
....To be continued in my next blog where I give you our cleaning disasters... And what we did to solve them :)
Thanks for reading!
