Ha, I wish, try $40K!

We didn't finish the sailboat race. The winds were out of the north and that was where we were trying to go, so after 9 hours we did the math and didn't want to be up all night, so we turned on the motor and still took six hours to get to the finish. But the party was fun and we saw a lot of people we saw last year.

I'm doing another race Saturday with my brother, so that should be fun.

This is a wild week. Looks like Friday will be the house inspection, the signing of the D deal, and possibly putting the down payment on the house. The owner said he would let me start to move stuff in Sunday even if I didn't have payment yet. I will be in full move out mode next week for sure.

The seller is super flexible (as he should be in this market). He is financing me for 8 months so I can save up for a good down payment, and I just pay him interest. I wasn't particularly interested in an interest only loan, but it looks like I'll be able to save up a ton of cash. The payments will only be $200 more than for my current house. And they are deductable. Once I get a bank loan, they go up about $1000, so I'm going to enjoy the lower payments for a few months anyway.

W said after hearing about my new house that we probably should trade. Probably true, but it won't happen.
