Well, thanks to Mother Nature I wasn't able to go on my shopping adventure today :( I thought I'd be good and finish up some odds and ends at home and shop later in the day after some appointments I had. The snow that was supposed to start around 6:00 came around 3:00. A drive that would normally take me 45 minutes took close to 2 hours! Maybe I'll go tomorrow after closing. Which, by the way, TOMORROW IS OUR CLOSING!
My husband also told me today that Wednesday is our last day with internet service. Boo. I'll try to keep up with posting before work in the morning, but I know the next few days are going to be a whirlwind. On to #4 (I can't believe it!)
#4 - Garage Door Opener
I already wrote about the garage, but not the garage door opener. This will be yet another first for me. I've always had to do it the old-fashioned - getting out of the car and opening the door. Maybe I'm just being lazy, but I'm going to love this little convenience. We did not go with Ryan for this because $450 was a tad overpriced we felt. I bought a pretty good one on sale on Black Friday for around $150ish and Sears is installing installing it on Saturday for $130. We didn't save a ton of money, but every little bit helps.
Speaking of the garage, here's a pic. Of all the things we want to do to the house, finishing the garage is on the top of my husband's list. Go figure.
M told me you were losing your internet connection on Wednesday. He said the next thing you know she'll be asking for my air card to keep the blog up to date. Sounds like a GREAT idea to me. I love reading your blog it's so exciting. Good luck on the closing tomorrow and your postpone shopping trip.
ReplyDeleteHe knows me so well. I was just going to hint around at it and see if he would offer, but you know him. He loves seeing me a little desperate :) He makes fun of my blog, but secretly I think he likes it. Thanks for reading!
ReplyDeleteGood luck tomorrow km! Can't wait to see pics after you move in! SO EXCITING!
ReplyDeletegood luck with closing!!! I Make sure you post about it tomorrow before you lose the internet!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the closing! SO exciting!
ReplyDeleteOur sales rep basically steered us away from getting a garage door openers. He said the garage is wired for garage door openers so you can get your own if you want to(wink wink).
ReplyDeleteGood Luck with your closing.

ReplyDeleteps...tell your hubby that the blog is a fantastic thing...lots of great ideas and money saving tips have come out of these blogs.
ReplyDeleteYayyyyyyy I'm so excited for y'all! It's hailing really bad right now! Not looking forward to tomorrows traffic
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! I'll let you know how it goes. A school closing and a house closing in the same day? Perfect!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you are closing today but not moving until Friday. I wouldn't be able to wait. :)
ReplyDeleteI know Jen! It will kill me the next few nights. I wasn't able take any time off of work, so my husband is handling the move on his own on Friday (with the movers of course). I'll probably be there every night though. If I had a bed, I'd sleep there!
ReplyDeleteWe didn't get our garage door with Ryan either. We actually got ours on Black Friday at Sears as well. My husband dad came over and helped us install it. So we were able to save some money. Also, closing goes super fast!! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYay your closing today!!!! How exciting!! Can't wait for the next update. Good luck with the moving. :)
