Got moved into the new house a couple of weeks ago. So far.....
Day 2 - Had to break window out of the office to get in because the locks on these doors not only require you to unlock them, but also twist them both ways before they will pull the lock pin. So 8:30a.m., taking the dogs out for the morning pee/poo, Arika is out getting her nails done (can't answer her phone), it's 45 degrees outside, had to break a window to get back in.
Day 4 - Had to break the gas meter locking thing. On a Saturday, when the gas company is closed, I realize that on the Friday preceeding, they put a lock on our gas meter. Somehow the orders at the gas company got mixed up, and after they turned the gas on in our name on Thursday, they disconected the same gas service in the previous home owners name on Friday. So I came home from dropping Arika off at the airport to a cool 63 degrres, had to destroy the meter thingy to get the gas on for the weekend.
Day - 17 Funky "vanilla cream" paint DOES NOT MATCH DAMNIT. Went to touch up the walls with the $16.00/quart special/custom paint, and it does not match, it's darker. Now I have dark splotches and points all over the hallway.....lol
So, new house woes, list the fun times you had when buying your house and shit just didn't work out like you expected it to.
