The snow has stopped and I got 18 inches!!!! Holy cow. Can I just say how very happy I am to be living in a townhouse with a garage and no more shoveling? Technically, I still own the other house, and I have 24 hours from the end of the storm to shovel... My 3 car driveway and sidewalks. And closing is at 11:30 tomorrow. It was 73 here yesterday!
Yes, their agent is a tool! I just hope my neighbors get nice new neighbors. The new owner is an oil company executive. We're just hoping he's still employed tomorrow. Fortunately, they're requested to sign at a different office of the same title company at the same time. Ron was adamant that we not close together, and I think that was wise. She's made this entire process way more stressful than necessary.
I'm so sorry to hear about your colleague. That's so sad. I'm really sad for her children.. To have to grow up without their mom. My friend was one of the nicest men I've ever met. He and his wife have the most extraordinary love story. It started with an ad in the newspaper a long time ago. Very sweet.
I'll let you when I'm no longer a homeowner. Living mortgage free is going to make my life so much easier. Now I can kickstart my retirement savings. Happy days ahead!
Enjoy the cherry blossoms. I always loved spring and fall at home best. My mom has the most beautiful magenta azalea in her front yard. Whenever it was my turn to bring flowers in May to crown the Virgin Mary, I always begged mom to let me take a bunch of them to school. Just thinking about that plant makes me happy.
