The Stenzels / Pharmies Bought A House!

Friday morning (and well into the afternoon), Phamie and I were signing papers for our new home. We saw some scary numbers: how long we are going to be in debt and how much we are REALLY paying once all of our interest is figured in. Gross. We walked out of the title place with a packet of papers and some new keys. It didn’t feel like we now had a new home.

We headed downtown to homestead the property at the courthouse, and then got to cleaning the new place (and by “new” I mean “new to us” – it’s a sweet 1914 home). We stopped once for a Subway meal and booze. Here we are cleaning late into the day, after said meal of meat and booze:

So now, if you’d like to swing into St. Paul for a day or two, you’re welcome to stay with us. We can all go for a bike ride or a run, and then stop off at Izzy’s Ice Cream shop just 3 blocks away. We have a guest room and a basement that’s good for housing bikes!
