This past week we made a trip back to Ohio to check on the nest. We arrived around 3 on Wed., to do some general cleaning, yard work, etc. We were just getting settled in around 5:30 when we got a call from our realtor to show the house from 7:30-8:30. So we did some general cleaning right away!! We left the house around 7:15 came back around 8:40, to find the realtor and the "lookers" still there. When we came into the cul de sac we noticed it was the same realtor that had been showing our house to a young couple with a 5-6 year old and a baby. They recognized our car but we just kept on going and waited until they left. We got back before the realtor left and he said this makes what the 4th time they have seen the house?? They brought the parents this time, I think the entire family has now seen the house!! The parents might be helping with a down payment, so this was a good thing. The realtor said the parents really liked the house too, but so far, no SHOW ME THE MONEY!! I always thought I would like to be a realtor, but I don't think I could handle the "anxious" sellers and the indecisive buyers!!! Since their realtor thought he might hear something on Friday or Saturday we decided to stay through Friday.
Well, as we all know, God is good. Late Friday afternoon, Donnie went to the basement to get something and found a puddle around the furnace. We believed the drain from the furnace to be leaking so he took it apart, and bought new parts. While we were working I looked and water was standing in the pipe that leads to the drain. I hit it on the floor and swoosh the water went out. We think it was probably just stopped up. But we (more he, than me) fixed it, poured bleach down it and hopefully solved yet another problem and avoided a bigger one!! It was still working good when we left and I pray it still is today, or there will be some wet boxes in our basement!!
Our next road trip will be this Friday when we go to Richmond to help my sister assemble her new TV stand and hook up the new big screen TV!!
