  • 11-13-05 -- So, its been a long time since I updated the site... sorry.  A lot has been going on... we closed on the house 9-29-05 and moved in the next day.  We are still light on furniture, but it is starting to look nice.  We painted the living room walls a shade of peach (it is pretty) and we bought an area rug.  We installed lots of fans and some light fixtures (inside and out) and tinted all the windows to minimize energy costs...  We hung some curtains and stained a computer cabinet... so, I have put some pictures up on the outside and the living room since it is the only room that looks like a room... check it all out and let me know what you think.
  • 09-03-05 -- GO GATORS!!! We started a bit rough, but won a good game today! As far as our house, well according to Chris (our construction manager) we should be having a walk thru on Friday the 9-9-05 to create our punch list so we can move on to closing.  I am a bit weary on this date, but I guess I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt.  No new pictures yet since we are locked out. Also, check our web site regularly (i.e. daily), I like seeing the counter go up :) Till I write again...
  • 08-29-05 -- I am officially sick, grumpy, have a fever, and I am overall a cranky <fill in the blank>.  Poor Erich. I feel the need to complain, so this site seems like as good a place as any. Oh, on top me not feeling well, our construction manager has not returned my calls which makes me want to call and complain to all who will listen at the builders office, However, I won’t, because I am cranky. So, as a result of him not calling, I have no new news to report on our house. How sad! I'm done for now. Later.
