2-27 kids house


I’m glad today is Friday. It’s always the longest day of the week at work. You want it to go by fast so you can have two days off. I can’t believe February is done, this month has flown by. I can’t believe two months of 2015 have gone by. We are working on fixing up our house to sell and looking for our next home. We havne’t found that home that will be the dream home and it’s frustrating. We are selling our home in Springfield in May. Cody, my step son is graduating in May and we have told the  kids living there they will have to move out. I will be glad to get rid of the bills and headache of having two houses. The taxes and insurance get expensive. We also pay for the electric, cable, trash and internet. It has been nice having a place for him to live and be with his friends during college, but we are ready to close this chapter. We bought the house at a steal, because it was a big fixer upper. We did all the work ourselves, even putting on a new roof. We put about ten thousand in it and it’s been well worth it. We will make a good profit when we sell it. It’s in a good neighborhood in Springfield and we don’t think we will have trouble selling it. We will either sell it as is so a realator friend so he can rent it out. If that doesn’t pan out, we will have to fix up the kitchen some before we sell it. The counters need replaces, and so does the floor. If someone is going to rent it out, they would probably leave them, because renters don’t take care of things and there is no use to fix it up to have it get ruined. Time will tell and I can’t wait to get rid of that house and have less to deal with.
