1407 Eastland Avenue
We have a new address.
Much quicker than we thought possible. Our original close date was Sept. 9th, our mortgage broker really wanted this commission in August so guess what happened....
We closed August 31st.
However, it is a renovation loan and the home has no HVAC, no kitchen, no working baths...The plumber and electrician started today.
Lester and Dooze only have to deal with us for a couple more weeks now.
Pics coming later. I promise.

To 'da Beach Boyeee!
Vacation is a wonderful thing.
We've been out of pocket since August 21st at the Hippy Farm beach house in Mexico Beach Florida.
Love. That's all there is to it.
Since we are still gypsies, our permanent address for those 9 days was 418 Nutmeg Street, Mexico Beach, FL. Lovely.
And since we are still gypsies, I have no idea where my actual camera is located. This butterfly is the only pic I got (with my camera phone) on the day we were leaving.

Gypsy Status Achieved
Lester and Dooze's House
The room that we've stuffed every thing into. And yes, that is a twin bed that Matt is lying on. I get to sleep on the twin trundle bed. The infamous "Father Knows Best" beds.
And I think they may actually like us.
We shall see if that is still the case once this is over!

Annnd we're homeless.
Well, here we are, August 14th.
Homeless.
Although I think I prefer the term gypsy... has a kinda of hippie cool vibe to it. Homeless just makes me think of the crazy blue haired lady and she scares me.

Countdown Update.
It's Wednesday. We close on Friday.
Check out our new decorating scheme. Very minimalist.
Check out our new decorating scheme. Very minimalist.
See the new coffee table (blue cooler) and new entertainment center (round waste basket), which the computer sits on so we can go to Hulu and get our Burn Notice fix....our current TV fascination.
I have to say though without all our stuff in the way, our paint looks AWESOME. I'm gonna miss this house.
UPDATE on the thermostat:
While I would have loved to put in a circular thermostat, I didn't get a choice. Matt called our HVAC man and he put in a digital one. Dang. Still I do get a little satisfaction when walking by, there is a small but lovely square of red next to the current LEVEL digital thermostat.
It's the small things.

Wow.
Matt just found a 1 million dollar bill. Here's what the back of it said -
"The million dollar question: Will you go to heaven when you die? Here's a quick test. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, or used God's name in vain? Jesus said, "Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Have you looked with lust? Will you be guilty on judgement day? If you have done those things, God sees you as a LYING, THIEVING, BLASPHEMOUS, ADULTERER AT HEART."
Wow.
Of course, then the million dollar bill then goes on to try and get you to "repent (turn from sin)." Wonder if that has ever worked for anyone?
Oh my, a 1 million dollar bill. What's this? If I don't, how you say, re-pent then I'll go to hell?! OH NO! Whatever should I do?
Now, I'm no Jebus hater, in fact we're pretty close but this is a bunch of religious propoganda that gives us Jebus lovers a bad name.

Countdown On.
It's Monday, August 3.
We have 10 days to be out of our house.
On Saturday, August 8, all TVs, beds, dog houses, lawn furniture, bed side tables, end tables, dressers, tables, lamps, and chairs will be taken to storage.
For the rest of that week, we will live in the nicest camp ground on the planet. Too bad there's not a river to canoe in our back yard.
