Day 1: No Electricity

I am going to have to start this blog at a much more verbose format upon my return from Colorado next week. Let's just put it this way...PSE&G shut off the condo's electricity this morning even though both myself and the seller never mentioned anything about turning it off. I was told that the seller had requested it be turned off. With that said, PSE&G lady told me she was sending dispatch out and would be there by 4:30 p.m. It is 11:30 p.m. and still no PSE&G. No electricity. No heat. I'm at my mother's house after accomplishing one thing today...getting the carpets professionally cleaned while it was still light out.

Off to Colorado in the morning and will complete this next week. Wish me luck. Rather, wish my mother luck who now has to deal with PSE&G. 

Two Days Until Closing

Welcome to my enactment of the trials and tribulations of becoming a first-time homeowner in the year 2009 as a twenty-something!

I hope you find my stories enlightening, interesting or not boring to say the least!

I will include photos, stories, situations, problems solved (or never solved), and lessons learned throughout this process.  I will even ask for feedback and advice!

I look forward to your readership and I look forward to my new home!
