Well, there's good news, and there's really bad news.
The good news is that we're approved for Grizzly! Yay!
The bad news is that we can't take him. While finishign up th elast of the repairs in the house, we found a disaster. Wht we thought was a small, water damaged spot in the bathroom turned out to be hiding lots of significant water damge that has actually rotted through part of the floor. We also discovere dthat the bathroom is done in regular sheetrock, instead of greenboard, and is a breeding ground for mold (very wet conditions up here in snow season!) if it isn't replaced. So, the whole bathroom has to be re-rocked, and the floor has to be replaced. Not the flooring, the floor itself. Ugh. And, for the icing on the cake, the water damaged wall is a shared wall between the kitchen and bathroom, and so that wall in the kitchen needs to be redone as well. Even better, that's the wall with the cuonter, the sink, the cabinets, etc. So, we're looking at 3-4 weeks of major repairs, that will turn our house into a construction zone. We'll actually have to move out for awhile at some point.
So, everythign worked out on every end but ours. We're heartbroken, as we were soo so so excited for Grizzly. But, we also know that it wouldn't be fair to bring him home with us in the middle of this kind of craziness. It's just so frustrating. We had finally finished everythign that we wanted to do this season, thought we were done, and , No, it starts all over
