We're moving!

So after four very long months we're finally going to close on our house. Right before Mother's Day I saw this house online and it looked too good to be true - everything I wanted in our new house. L & I headed over there to check it out, & I loved it! Don't get me wrong I knew it needed a lot of work but I'd found the one. A month later we finally got a PA in because we'd been a back-up offer, then it was off to the battles & negotiations - I love a good negotiation or debate but even this house wore me down! Negotiations just stopped yesterday & we close tomorrow!

Needless to say L & I have been appliance shopping - very excited for the new stuff to be delivered on Friday! L helped me pick paint colors, I'd narrow it down to 2 or 3 and then lay them out for her to pick the final one, of course then I'd mix them all up to see if she'd pick the same one (I had to make sure it was the one she really wanted). I was surprised almost every time she would pick the same color 3 times, guess she knows what she wants - Love it! Carpet selection is tomorrow & the roof install is labor day weekend ~ whew where's my cocktail?

My latest saga...the sellers pre-signed the documents but conveniently they didn't bring all the keys, garage door opener and key code to their closing - that was Tuesday at 5PM its now Wednesday at 10PM hmmm... I said I'm calling the police if its not at my closing tomorrow AM. Stay tuned...!
