We finally closed on the house we built. I must say that it is nice to have it out of our hair. The last little bit of building it has got to be the most stressful of the whole process. Building houses for people is not as easy as building houses. They are two different animals. But alas, we signed all the papers on Friday and didn't even have to attend the closing. If we do another one there will be a few changes on how we do it, but for the most part I think it was a pleasant experience. Now this is coming from the guy who did about 5% of the work on this house so take it for what it is worth.
We sodded the whole back yard yesterday and my back is killing me. There wasn't enough room for the guy to drop the pallet in the back yard so I had to tote all the pieces back in a wheelbarrow through a rose bush gauntlet and now have cuts all over both arms. If I was suicidal people would/should be worried. It took about 3.5 hours to do the whole thing. We tilled the soil with a hoe, then laid top soil, and lastly put down some lime for nutrition. Lisa got the neighbors over to show it off and I agree that it looks awesome. Frampton will be glad that he can now run around in the back yard.
