I looked at houses again tonight, but not for long.
Why? Picture driving the little Paseo (and I am emphasizing little!) with the manual transmission (and I am emphasizing “manual”) while trying to look at the 8.5 X 11 printed Google maps and reading a spreadsheet with a list of the addresses on it.
Now keep in mind that I can’t read either the map or the spreadsheet without my reading glasses.
To put my reading glasses on, I have to take my sunglasses off. I was wearing my sunglasses because my eyes are very sensitive to light.
Now, add in a miserable headache and you will begin to understand why I didn’t last much over an hour.
However, in that hour, I did manage to look at enough houses to decide that I don’t want to live in Lee’s Summit, MO. There is nothing wrong with it but it just didn’t feel right.
I closed the evening off by going back to the two houses that we liked in Grandview, MO.
The big brick one is really beautiful. But I think that it is more house than we need and it is definitely more money than I want to spend.
I like the first one…3 BR/2 BA, great view, smaller lot (not too much grass to mow!), GREAT price!
I am not calling the Costco wife tonight. I’m going to bed!
