Moved!

I'm in! The movers came this morning and, with a few exceptions, my stuff is now located in the new house. I left a very curious cat sniffing everything and came into work for a few hours.

Now to clean the old place.

I'm a HOMEOWNER!

Closing went pretty smoothly (completely smoothly from my end, the seller caused a few hiccups, but my folks got tough on them and it's all straightened out.) As of noon on Friday, I own my home.

I'm not sure it's sinking in yet that I own the house. It's so much bigger than the apartments I've been living in. It's got a whole extra story for crissakes! And a yard!

My folks were in town this weekend to see the house (and me). We got lots of good stuff done. We blew insulation into the attic, changed the locks and all of the smoke detectors, amongst other things. My dad is so happy to have a house to putter in for his little girl.

The weather was nice, so I did some work outside. I met a bunch of my neighbors. It's a very close and friendly neighborhood.

More later.

New closing date

New closing date was approved. I'll be a homeowner on the 19th! Yay!!!

Inspection passed

So the house passed inspection. YAY! There are, of course, a few things to take care of but nothing that puts the kybosh on the purchase. So now we head in to the final weeks of stuff before closing. Whew.
