If you can spare any minor good vibes,
we're trying to buy a house (our first), and I'm freaking out a little bit.
We're going to make an offer on a place I reeeally want, if the appraisal goes alright tomorrow, but I need a speck of good luck for that to happen.

The house is ideal and cheap enough that we can actually afford it. It also has carpet in one of the upstairs bedrooms that I'm pretty sure is made from Grover, or a similar-looking muppet.


:D

3. I'm sending you lots of good vibes.
There's no way I want you to miss out on the cozy Grover carpet.

4. okay
My Dream House (Genevieve Sullivan Markert)

It isn’t, of course, and it shan’t be,
For years and years where passing eyes might see.
Yet deep in the depths of will be, must be,
Already it stands complete—
Pine trees hiding the drive,
Sheltering the doorway and nooks,
Rugs on the floor—dishes, pictures and books,
A wide fireplace and a winding stair for looks.
Surely you’ll love it, this Dream House of mine,
And visit it often any season or time,
When drowsy south winds hum prairie tunes,
Or biting north gales tempt fireside runes.
In summer a door open wide—
In winter a lantern outside!
My Dream House, come true!
(1920s)

5. I will send good vibes and a piece of advice:
get a home inspection, no matter what the Realtor tells you. It shouldn't cost more than $300.00 and can save you HUGE money if there is any problem with the home. Good luck!!!

Oh, we definitely will! My husband works at an architectural/
engineering firm, and could tell quite a bit about the house when we went through it, but that's no substitute for a trained, professional eye.

Nice carpet... I'm sure Frank Oz would approve.

11. Thanks, baby!
I'm actually ready for my class tonight more than half an hour before I have to leave, so I'm calling that "good".

15. Thanks!
I will definitely have a party if we get it! While any DUer's would be welcome, I doubt they would want to venture into the tundra that is my little corner of the States!

16. Merci!
I would love it if my kids could destroy my own house, rather than someone else's.
