rough day - went to the John Deer tractor place to pick up my lawn mower (will need it to cut the grass as the new home - it is almost waist high) haulded it around with me till closing at 1:30 - at closing it was found that the seller did not bring enough money to pay off the balance of her loan. (seems that there was a second mortgage lien for about $2,500 or so) Seller said she could get the rest of the money but by Thursday. My mortgage company would only close in escrow til Wednesday. the Seller said she would try to get the money by then and was fairly sure she could. If she does not come up with the money then we will have to reschedule closing for next Friday. I did get the key to the house tho so I can start doing some things there. Not going to spend too much money on the place til it is in my name tho but I am going to act AS IF this will go through.
I then went to the house and off loaded my riding mower and started cutting the front lawn but when I got off to pickup some trash about half way around the first time the mowere cut off (it is suppose to do that as a safty feature) but it would not start back up. (same thing that happeded to it last year and why I took it in to be fixed this time. Repair shop said they would come out tomorrow to fix it tho. I guess it is a good thing that I have my apartment til August 30th.
Will fill everyone in tomorrow night on the mower and later if the closing goes though.
