KB Crap

We currently own a KB home. For those of you who aren't familiar with this nation builder it is probably one of the cheapest homes to buy. Mostly starter homes and they put so many up so fast the quality is terrible. I really shouldn't be complaining about this, but everything has started to fall apart on us. I don't know if it is the quality, product or what. Over time we have fixed facets, baseboards, air conditioning issues, the hot water heater has gone out leaked all over the carpet, and now most recently we have had toliet issues. We are currently having to flush our toliet with the lid off and do it manually. (sorry no picture for a visual) Now that I am typing it, it really is quite comical when you think about it. Doug has the lid off on top of the counter for easy access to flush. Yes, we are a bit lazy and haven't gotten around to going to home depot to by a new handle.

And speaking of homes we are outgrowing the one we have. It did do us well for when we first bought it, but that was two kids less than now. Now that our kids are getting older we have found the noise level increase and really no space to run around and play. The good news is that we only have two more years to survive in such small quarters, but the bad news is it is still two more years. I guess the reason I am complaining is because Doug and I tried to have an adult conversation yesterday and it was next to impossible. There was just no place for the kids to be "kids."

On another housing note, my brother n' law who is a realitor has been checking out some subdivisions for us in AZ. I was so excited when he sent me some information on some of the areas we like. They are opening up lots starting in October. The good news is that prices have come down significantly compared to a year ago, but of course when I clicked on the floor plan I wanted it was wayyyyy out of our price range. I can always dream right? Anyways, sorry about the housing tanget I guess we have had a little cabin fever with the kids lately.
