Demolition Day

So after all the legal stuff was out of the way, it was time to get down to business.  Got the tools, the music, the help, and the house; we were ready for destruction.  As we started to work we first needed to flip the breakers to the appliances and electrical outlets in the kitchen.

Let me remind all that this is a 50+ year old house and wiring was done very different in the 50′s than it is now.  We have 3 breaker locations and Mario was sure to give himself quite the shock while standing in the snow flipping breakers.

We finally found the correct breakers but we still haven’t found the main water line to shut off the sink.  So, we just cut around the sink.  Lots of hard work but a very productive day.

Closing?

Today we woke up quickly after an unsteady night of sleep, it was like Christmas Eve.  Ice and all.  Even though we may live pretty far south, being in Oklahoma, we still get a good ice storm every winter and today was the day we got it.  BIG time!  It took us 45 minutes to defrost and scrape the ice off our windshield and twice as long to get to the Abstracting company than it normally would have.  But we got there and we closed!!! Homeowners again!!!

Closing Time!

We are set to close on the house the 29th of January. Let the madness begin!
