Once again I am surprised how long it has taken me to make a post, so I’ll just get right to it.
First, the bathrooms are almost completely done. Thanks go out to my brother-in-law Pete for coming over on Black Friday and helping us knock out some of the finishing work in the bathrooms. The cabinet in the master bathroom has been painted and put back together. Tom and I feel pretty good about the bathrooms, but those that have come to visit us and seen the bathrooms have suggested we also change the counter tops. We’ll see about that. I’m just happy to have the bathroom back in working order.
Second, my big news is that I have bought a new car! I sold the Eclipse for $4,750 and 2 cases of beer! Yup, I said beer. What’s up with the beer portion of that deal? Well the gentlemen we sold the car to was a pretty tough negotiator, but he also works for Miller. He happened to have a couple of cases in his trunk . . . so it helped seal the deal. My new car is a 2009 Subaru Forester. I have been loving it with the current weather. Being an all-wheel drive vehicle it has handled beautifully in these slick conditions. I don’t have a picture of my actual car (haven’t gotten around to taking one yet), but you can see the model here.
