We closed on Tuesday!!!  Due to some problems with the owners not being able to move out right away, we gave them the weekend to move.  We take possession of the house on Tuesday of next week.  We’ll do some moving in right away, but we should be totally moved in by the end of [...]

Didn’t realize it, but yesterday’s post was number 100!  Not bad, considering I figured I’d get bored with this blog and stop posting to it after a week (this was attempt 4 or 5 at starting a blog).  I was going to do a contest, but with the move still not completed, it probably isn’t [...]

Migraine averted.
Spent most of the day in bed, but the actual migraine never showed up.  That makes me very happy.  Which reminds me… the Monday happy list is late, so here, without further delay, is the Monday Happy List (on Tuesday).
Here, in no particular order, are five things that make me happy:

Migraines going [...]

The title company sent in the wrong paperwork for the title purge. Correct paperwork was sent in on Wednesday. Estimated time of paperwork completion - after the 12th. Result - closing has been moved back to the 20th.
Is it time to freak out yet?

Yes, I’m still alive.  Currently, sitting at the local coffee shop borrowing their wifi and having a latte.  We have successfully made the transition to Grand Junction, and are staying with Brian’s grandparents.  We’ve had a couple more snafus with the house, but things are still on track to close on the 12th.  Here’s hoping!
Well, [...]

Yay! It’s Monday!  That means it’s time for another Happy List.
Here, in no particular order, are five things that make me happy.

We close on our house on the 29th.  Yay!

I hate waiting.  I swear, I am the most impatient person I know.  Right up until the moment the decision gets made, I’m fine.  Once the decision is made, I want action.  Now.  Quickly.
Unfortunately, we don’t close on the house until the 29th, and can’t move in until August 2nd, so I have to wait.  [...]

… has been accepted.
We won’t be able to move in until the middle of next month, but barring any problems with the loan, we have a house.  Of our own. Glee!
*runs in circles screaming madly*
Pictures to come as soon as possible.

Well, we’ve headed to Grand Junction on an exploratory trip, and of course, nobody will rent to us with six animals.  Woe!  I don’t want to try to buy a house on the spur of the moment… that’s something we really want to take our time with.  So, the solution that has presented itself is [...]

Sorry I haven’t been updating as often, but it’s been a bit chaotic around here.  We’ve found out we have about three weeks to move, so I’ve been running around like crazy trying to get stuff accomplished (and failing, of course).
Needless to say, I’m a bit of a nutcase right now.  I will post an [...]
