Burgled


This house is full of surprises! Mainly, that it was built/remodeled so poorly. We found out that there are a couple of boards missing from the floor upstairs (tucked away behind a wall) and that a weight bearing beam isn't actually connected to anything on the main floor. Also, the upstairs roof isn't really structurally sound and we'll have to throw a couple of beams up top in the master bedroom. Not that big of a deal, but we will have to alter our window selection (even though we already ordered them) and get an engineer out to ensure that we are making this house sound.

Yesterday was also quite discouraging because we found out that we had been robbed. They took Jason's saws, Eric's tool box, our bag of empty bottles, and coke from the fridge. Dead serious. Cokes. It's quite unfortunate, but it could have been worse. Some of our tools were scattered throughout the house so they didn't gank everything. They also left the ladders. We are a little smarter now about our tools and take them home. We don't even know how they got in, which is a little frightening.
