Merry Maids have nothing on us!

After over a year of waiting for my own home, I finally got my keys to the lovely house on Orchid at 6:00pm Friday!  Given how late everything went through, we weren't able to start tearing into the house as much as we wanted to.  I was able to show my mom the house, and we exterminated the property.

Yesterday was the first real day of terror.  We spent over 10 hours cleaning and disinfecting this house, because it was absolutely filthy.  The master bathroom took almost 3 hours in and of itself, and we still have to finish taping the baseboards to paint!  After all day, we only got through both bathrooms and the master bedroom!  The bright side is Cox came and installed the cable and internet, and he even put an extra cable outlet in my living room for me for free; this is awesome because now I can rearrange a few different ways.  Even better, ADT screwed up my install date and came yesterday, so I was able to kill two birds with one stone!

Today will be the remaining cleaning and taping, and we have a full day ahead of us.  I'm very much crossing my fingers that we can begin painting first thing in the morning tomorrow, but it will be a close call.

vegas will be a good distraction...

I leave for Vegas tomorrow (whoo hoo!) and I am getting a much-welcomed 5 day break from work before a crazy week and a long-awaited move.  I got my security system installation appointment scheduled, as well as the Cox Cable (thank goodness!) Now I just have to schedule carpet cleaning and appliance delivery, and we will be set!
