One more week

Today, I am officially one week away from my closing date. I popped by my house yesterday to check it out. To my surprise, the front door wasn't locked so I was able to walk right in. In fact, my neighbour's doors were wide open. Maybe there was someone working in there, I couldn't tell for sure. Anyway, back to my house, the carpeting was put in. And there were little pieces of green painters tape everywhere which looked like were put there to indicate where they need to fix, repair, touch up, finish, etc. But overall, the house looks pretty much done. The gas meter still needs to be put in out front but there wasn't anything major that I could see that wasn't done. My house is numbered and my mailbox was even installed. Check out the latest pictures on my picasaweb album starting with this one.

While I was there, I saw a family pull up and was checking out one of the houses across the street. I knew it was a member from the buildinghomes.ca community forum which I have been posting on. So, I introduced myself and had a nice chat with them. They seemed pretty excited about the progress of their home and they should be so. It was neat meeting people who you've been conversing with on an open forum.

All of the townhomes along Burritts Rapids Place are coming along nicely. I'm excited that I will be calling it home in a week's time. Not excited about all the packing though. Still have lots to do and think I may have sorely underestimated how much stuff I have. Is that show "Clean Sweep" still on? Think I could use their help.
