How do I know? There were still fresh bubbles in the soap dish and the lingering whispers of a sea shanty indicating the gentleman&#8217;s recent liberal application of Old Spice. Just for the record, goodbye bathroom sink and cabinet!<\/p>\n<p>And then&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bobtherieau.com\/images\/blog\/idy_035.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;the exterior windows inside the house. It seems that although the addition of what appears to be a den occurred years and years ago, they never really got used to the idea. The exterior windows are joined by the presence of exterior entry doors that lead out into the enclosed space. My guess is that the deadbolts on those doors is kind of a fall-back, you know, in case that whole room addition thing doesn&#8217;t work out. So you can orient yourself, the curtains are in the den, the mini blinds are in the master bedroom. Yeah, I know.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bobtherieau.com\/images\/blog\/idy_033.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The seller called me today to offer the loveseat for $75. The lady of the house also offered the dining room table and chairs and a hutch for $800.
