I'm a happy camper once again...

Last night we had our last home visit before we close (ACK!) on Friday. If you remember this post, you'll know the trials and tribulations I had of simply getting a painter from Home Depot to show up.

Well, I contacted a painter through a friend and what a relief it was that he actually showed up after only one call. (Service? What's that?) He looked around the house and we told him what we wanted painted and he suggested a few things that the Home Depot painter didn't. As he was adding things on that we hadn't thought of, we were assuming that the cost was going to go up...and up...and up. After all was tallied, he came in $500 cheaper than the Home Depot guy. That's right...five hundred dollars cheaper. WOO!

So, we're getting our house painted next week!
