Just a Foolish Newbie Rehabber
I must have been smoking some serious crack when I thought I could wrap up this "cosmetic " first rehab in 3 weeks for 12k...Complete la-la-land. Almost twice that much and twice as long later, I'm still not done, and it's starting to get to me. I had a credit card denied for the first time in years today, and I started freaking out. I am getting pretty maxed. I also have no income. It's not horrible, terrible yet, but I'm starting to feel the pain here. I really need to wrap this rehab up, and get it sold in a hurry. Really I do. IN A HURRY. Anyway...just had to vent a little.

Hey it's midnight in CT - I just got home from another long day on site....This thing will be done by the first, at least interior in showshape. Random landscaping can be done while it shows, it ain't much. I can't wait to take pics of the finished product. Got the befores - gotta look at em every once in awhile just to assure myself YES I have gotten far...lol
