Moved in with a FEW problems!

Hey everyone! This is Paul and I thought I'd give this blogging thing a try since my wife thinks I should be a part of it. So here it goes.
Well we did it! We signed the papers for our condo and moved in. Of course that was after waiting an extra month for the government to get off of their vacations!! What an amazing feeling it is to own your own place. But after signing the papers Kaylene and I said to each other,"what did we just do?"
After moving in we have run in to a few snags. As my mom puts it, "welcome to being a homeowner." Let me give you a list of things that has been eventful since being a home owner. Our dryer broke the day after the move, the washer flooded the basement, the neighbors car is broke down in our parking spot, can't turn on the vacuum without flipping the breaker, can't turn on the light in the master bedroom without the fan coming on and at a high speed, (Kaylene is cold enough as is), having problems with the dishwasher, and to end this exciting list the fridge is falling apart.
On the upside of things that we enjoy about our new place is that we now wake up in the mornings listening to birds chirping in the tree instead of semi's going 75 mph down the freeway. I can now put as many holes in the wall as I want to and don't have to worry about filling them in to get a deposit back. I love that one. We live next to a good friend of ours and we now have regular visitors. We also get a nice tax return. But the best thing above all is that IT IS OURS!!!!
We will be fixing up quite a few things, as you can tell from the list above, so if we don't update real soon you know why. We want to thank all the help we have received and for the support many of you have given us. Thank You!
