well, we have accepted the counteroffer on the house. So today, we signed all of the necessary documents and faxed them back to the realtor. This on the fifteenth anniversary of our first date. Fifteen years! We celebrated by going to dinner at a little place that we went to when we bought this house, fourteen years ago.
So now of course is all of the financing stuff. We don’t forsee that as a problem though. So, one of my ideas is to let the family use this new abode for weekend or vacations. That, and I would like input on any remodeling ideas. Maybe I will leave a book there that anyone who stays can jot down ideas in, annonomously if they like. There are some funky things with this house, being that it was built in 1979. Foil wallpaper in the bedrooms, for example. And lets not forget the fireplace. I remember some ugly carpet that will need to go. The owners also amended the offer that we made, saying that they want to keep the light fixture that is in the bedroom. Sure. I have no idea what it might have looked like. I did ask the realtor to take a picture of it, because now I am curious. I will put a link up to it tomorrow.
time for bed, been a long day……………..
Congratulations!
