Figure of speech.

Yesterday May 3 2015 we went to the house. We wanted to take pics and to get some measurements. The day before that my parents called and asked if they could come out and see the house. Sure no problem. I knew it was going to be Jeff, Ken, our realtor and myself.

What I wasn’t counting on is all the extra people. They only accepted our offer we officially close on the house June tenth then the house is officially ours. Since it’s a fixer upper we wanted to get measurements so we can get an idea of a floor plan.

Jeff and I were the first to show up. So Jeff and I started right away measuring stuff on the outside of the house. A few minutes later our Realtor showed up and he brought his son. After that my parents. The realtor let us in the house and everyone headed in all different directions. Then Ken, his brother Jules and his dad Al all showed up. This house isn’t very big so it quickly became crowded.

Everyone started to ask so many questions and pulling us in all different directions. When we just wanted to measure things.

Then came everyone’s ideas on what we should do to the house. It was crazy. First I like to say Jeff’s Uncle Jules is full of bullshit. He is a pathological liar. He told us how much money everything was going to take and what to do. He always acts like he knows everything. Later Jeff and I had a good laugh about it. The funny part is Ken knows it too and we all just sigh or laugh at what Jules says.

The only person who had any good ideas was my mom. Which I am not surprised she is good at creating things.

Even though it was chaos for an hour we got some great ideas.

Like I promised here are some pics of the house.
