It’s official: I’m a homeowner

Filed under: Life — Meryl Yourish @ 3:18 pm

I have two garage door openers, three sets of keys, a condo, and a mortgage.

Tigger is giving me congratulatory kisses. (Actually, he’s just licking my hands while I type this, but hey, I can make stuff up with the best of them.)

Best of all, my brother is driving down from NJ to help me pack and paint. He’ll be here tonight, stay for a couple of days, then head back to NJ. Until he has more time, when he’ll be able to stay as a guest and do no work.

Off to the new condo, after I call the gas company to switch service over to me. I missed that one.

  7. Mazel Tov! Aside from the mortgage, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

    I hope Gracie and Tig are having a ball.

  9. That’s great news. More responsibility but thank God you are not at the mercy of a landlord any more.

  13. Heh. I get the biggest territory. I’m the Big Cat.

    My brother the contractor made a surprise visit to help me paint and move in. He keeps telling me that he’s not Packing Boy, though. He’s Painting Boy.

    Posting will be light the next few days, and then we’ll have new home pictures.

  19. Mazel Tov on becoming a home owner!
    I hope all continues to go well and the kitties adjust to their new home quickly.
    You will love having your vehicle in the garage especially when the weather turns bad.
