Sorry but I have to vent a bit!

As many of you know, we recently moved from IN in order to start a new business. Well, we were (are) in the process of building a home, so we decided to rent a home in the interim.

We found a nice older home, but over the past motnth a virtual nightmare has occurred. The house is now overrrun with mildew amongst other things. With our children, we are nonetheless not staying here for very long.

So, we are now force to move again (been here about 6 months) and will have to move again in about 9 months when the house is finished.

On the bright side, we have cleared the land (only gotten that far, but hey, it is a start)

Vent away, Anthony,

Yes, the loveliness of the damp, humid South leads to mold and mildew.

Just remember, with the mostly warmer winters, that new house will (hopefully) be finished and ready to move in sooner than you think.

Chin up, as you have MINT to look forward to real soon.

Anthony,

Sorry for your bad luck. Moving is the "pits". But, I am sure when your get settled into your beautiful new home, this will all be a distant memory. I hope so.

Betty

Darn it! What a hassle! I hope things progress quickly on the new house!

Unfortunately the home we are building is at this point only a vison in my mind.

We are just beginning to pour the foundation and from there we are looking at nine months to finish.

Not to wish my life away, but...

Seems like forever, doesn't it? My sister and her partner are building a house - the two of them and 3 cats are stuffed into a one bedroom apartment as their house sold more quickly than they thought it would. Every few days we get an update - the excitement over the mailbox going in was the latest! A long nine months I know....but what fun to watch it materialize!

I am sorry about your interim house not working out - moving once is bad enough!

Anthony, I have not moved many times in my life, and each experience was not one I would like to repeat, even though in most cases our employees helped out a lot (for a little green). Just be glad, like Kathy said, that you do not own that house with mold. Nine months and the house is done? Wouldn't count on that either, but with luck, maybe you will make it.

Thank you all for your well wishes. Olivia, you are right. I really doubt we will be in the new house in 9 months, but here is to hoping.

Just keep all the non-essential stuff in boxes so that you won't have to pack again. I empathize, moving is a pain. Good luck with the new place and before you know it, you'll be ready to move into your house!
