House Hunting 101

Presenting the cat of the day!



Looking for a home to purchase is pretty much wearing Don and I to a frazzle. This would be our first home purchase and last, if I can help it. You see being in the military you move constantly. New duty station and you might have to move into an apartment first before you can get housing. Then when housing opens up you have to move on post! Move, Move, Move, and Move!!!





Since we have "Retired" and moved back to Alabama, this is it. We are looking for the last home for the rest of our lives. NO MORE MOVING!!! We are planting the roots of the Combs Family!! This house has got to be perfect or near perfect. I do not think there is a house out there that is perfect. We have been looking since January and we have seen so many houses, I dream of them!!!

But we have been narrowing down the choices.

• Has to be in the country, no city livin here.


• Must have 3 bedrroms and 2 baths, minimum! Got to have room for the scrapping and the computering.


• Must have fenced backyard for the Tater and Pitiful.


• No open floor plan! I do not want a guest walking through the front door of our house and Hello there is my kitchen. Nope not gonna work there!


• Must have a carport, garage would be nicer but not a requirement for purchase.


• MUST HAVE CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING! You cannot live in the South with it this important item. Unless you wanna just roast your buns off!!

SO there ya have it. Just our simple needs in 6 lines, well besides all the rest of the stuff ya get in a house.

House hunting will begin again Saturday. Don is off, so off we go in the car to look and walk, and look and walk. Well you get the idea!
