Closing, and packing....

Wow - what a week it's been!

We accepted offers on Dick's house last night. It all went well, but I can't really say anything until all is said and done. More on that later.

We also closed on the downstairs condo TODAY! Yep, we're now the proud owners of both units - upstairs and downstairs! It's very, very exciting. We've been busy scheduling contractors to do the work downstairs, so we can move in (hopefully) during the last week of April.

PHASE THREE HAS BEGUN!

I say "phase three" because this is the third house that we have had all of this work done on in the last 2 months. We started by doing the floors and painting my upstairs unit, then we had the interior of Dick's house done for the staging. (it looks gorgeous). Now, we're having some minor contractor work done downstairs, then we'll have the floors done, and have the whole unit painted. The good news here is that we've interviewed/used so many contractors now, that we know exactly who we want to go with for each type of job!

Here's the VERY EXCITING NEWS:
We're leaving for Hawaii TOMORROW!

WHAT?

Yep. Hawaii. The Big Island to be exact. We can't wait. We've been so busy and stressed with all of this moving stuff, and poor Dick hasn't really been able to enjoy his sabbatical from work. So, we scheduled this vacation just last Sunday. :)!
