You could feel the humidity when you walked into the house! Not a good thing for Columbia - it's humid enough. If I remember correctly it was in the Murrywood subdivision. <BR/><BR/>Good luck on finding *the* house.Corkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04755945146462425060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-68185618803099774982007-12-11T17:49:00.000-05:002007-12-11T17:49:00.000-05:00The house certainly looks like it has potential.Yo...The house certainly looks like it has potential.<BR/><BR/>You can turn the "uglies" part into something that is more you>Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10585878295754436629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-79883292491953538542007-12-11T09:04:00.000-05:002007-12-11T09:04:00.000-05:00What a fun post.

Then I heaved a sigh of relief when I read about the basement. It does look so peaceful and quiet and you can easily overcome the internal decorating problems with a wallpaper stripper and tons of paint (and a plumber!).Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344963200919601488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-43100739803938358472007-12-10T23:16:00.000-05:002007-12-10T23:16:00.000-05:00Good to hear you found 'something' ...

You are probably like most of the rest of us -- you spent the first half of our life accumulating, and the second half un-accumulating. Smaller is a LOT better!

Househunting was disappointing, but purchasing was even more so. Looking at so many gives you overload...so we named them! The first house we put a contract on had a high radon level and they couldn't mitigate it, so we canceled the contract and had to move to an apt. It took 5 months to find a house. The move was a nightmare, but once we did buy a house and settle in, I loved living there. We use to drive over to Winston-Salem for shopping at Best Buy and the mall a couple times a year. I enjoyed going there as it is a nice area.Belviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01339295196960064374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-28527580647296800412007-12-10T09:59:00.001-05:002007-12-10T09:59:00.001-05:00Your frustration is palpable.

I have to chuckle, it looks so much ( the outside) like our sons house. Of course the inside is different and theirs is not for sale.<BR/>Would you believe that on Dec. 17th, 41 years ago we moved in this house. We had 2 small children, very little furniture no Christmas bought, no decorations to put up. <BR/>Buttttt, somehow you get through it all. I will say I have never looked back and laughed about it all, that was a very trying time for me. Maybe that is why we haven't moved again!!!!! Keep good thoughts, the right place is out there, if not the one you saw this weekend, then there will be another. Looking forward to you being in our neck of the woods and hopeing to meet you someday. JQuilting Memorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17007166356373016943noreply@blogger.com
