Well, the weekend ended without knowing if we are going to get the house on Burlingame in OKC.  We made an offer on Friday, which was rejected late Saturday.  We increased the offer yesterday afternoon and that, too, was rejected.  Apparently the owner was transferred to another city by his employer.  That company agreed to buy the home from the seller if he could not sell it.  According to the owner's realtor, our last offer was less than what the relocation company agreed to pay.  Some research on Debbie's part helped us determine that our last offer is really about what the market price should be and the owner is asking too much.  Well, at least as far as we are concerned.  Our realtor said to sit back and wait a day or two to see if they decide to contact us.  If not, we start looking again. 

A few weeks ago I finished replacing the shutters on the house.  All of the old ones were made out of wood and not all were the same.  I replaced the wood shutters with vinyl ones.  $50 per window ordered online.  Look nice, if I do say so myself.  One thing I learned is that a hammer drill makes it go alot faster than a regular drill.  Well worth the $80 for a hammer drill.

While I was working on the shutters, Debbie had a butterfly land on her hand.  It stayed there for several minutes.  It flew off and then came back to the front of the house.  Debbie put some fruit in a container and sat it on the ladder.  The butterfly stayed there for a long time apparently sucking up the fruit juices.  Pretty cool.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Can't believe it is July 1 already.
