I called off from work yesterday. Really did not feel so great, had gut issues. Plus I needed to clean house and be ready for the house showing this morning.
Went ahead and bought a used vehicle yesterday. Hope I don't regret that decision financially. Got a 2002 Kia Sedona. It's pretty big. Actually a minivan but I can lay the extra seats down and use it like an SUV. It has like six seats because of third row seating. AC needs to be recharged but seems to work. Take some getting used to for driving. I only paid $1600 for it. Most of that will be offset by what I earned at work already and by selling the car.
To get the vehicle I had to drive across town, inspect and test drive it. Drove the van home, hopped on a bus back across town to get the car and drive it home. That process took a few hours. I got so hot I laid down for a while when I got back. Having gut problems did not help.
Next showing of the house is in 2 hours.
I ordered more floor polish and applied that. It looks much better than it did. I also ordered a floor machine which has not arrived yet. It's basically a mini buffer. Can be used to scrub floors or polish them. This one can be used to scrub carpet also. It's rather lightweight. The floors aren't so reflective you can see your face in them but they are really shiny. They also have a deeper wood glow than they did. So I'm happy with the polish.
Only have a few things to do to get ready for the showing. Wipe out the tub, clean the sink, run the dust mop over the floors.
I used the well pump to water the grass in the back yard last night. This morning the difference is visible. That well water definitely has a good level of nitrates in it. The grass looks greener than it did even the day before. Need to do the same with the front yard. Just didn't have time last night.
So, while the house is being shown, I'm going to the store and get coolant for the AC in the van.
I really hope the house sells this week.
