We’re buying a house! This has been a long process and I haven’t been writing about it because we had to break our lease with our awesome landlords, one of whom reads this website. We weren’t sure if we could find a deal while interest rates were low, but we did.
We are set to close on November 24, just 18 days from now. Every day we have a new emergency. Last night our financing fell through and somehow we got a new loan by about 2pm today.
I am in the middle of:
- Hiring a moving comany
- Buying boxes and supplies
- Buying homeowners insurance
- Securing the mortgage
- Finding new daycare for Sam
- Hiring a cleaning service
- Buying new carpet
- Hiring painters
- Helping our landlords to re-rent our current house
- My usual duties as CFO, CEO, zookeeper and mommy
I had to dig some pants out of the dirty laundry this morning. Sam has watched 2 hours of TV today. Food means McDonald’s in the car and Halloween candy for snacks.
Blogging might be slow for a while.
But it will be worth it.
I think.
