Holy crap on a cracker

So the appraisal was last Friday and I will find out sometime this week how it went, but my lender told me to go ahead and start calling around for home owner’s insurance quotes. I have to have it paid for and in place 10 prior to closing which if all goes well is less than a month away!

I also went garage/yard sale hunting last weekend. I did get some loot and I have a place to revisit the first Saturday and Sunday of every month since the guy does demolitions and he brings home anything he thinks is interesting and sells it during a yard sale. I got the wrought iron from an old church light to turn into wall art and a few other things. I’ll post pictures when I get home tonight. :)

All and all I think this will be a good week.

Ooh, garage sailing is fun! You never know what you're going to find and I've found some real treasures, as well as stuff that's highly useful (including various tools and such).

Best of luck with the home owner's insurance, and don't forget flood insurance as well. Just because you're not in a flood plain doesn't mean you won't ever get water damage (think about broken water mains, etc), and most homeowner's policies don't cover things like that. If you're lucky, you'll find a good policy that will also give you a cut rate on your car insurance as well!

Pardon the edit, LJ seems to be spitting out my code for some reason, so I just posted the link instead.

Garage/yard sales are fun and interesting. I like poking through other people's stuff regardless if I'm going to buy it because I'm a nosy little thing.

I live in Florida and hurricanes kinda make flood insurance a requirement here. :)
Thanks for the link!

I'll take some when I get home and post them.

For some reason I really like my new/old shovel.
