Another day another list of questions, some with answers, some without answers, I just keep lining up those dominoes. Last night Robert came home with another list for me to look over and to discuss. Do we want to move twice? Shoot me now. There are advantages to moving twice; we will be there to monitor the building, we will have the money from the sale of this house to use as the downpayment on the new house, we know that we will be there for sure for the birth of a grandchild, we will be able to sell our house and not worry. The downsides; moving twice, that should be enough, but lets continue, we would move twice, oh yeah, already covered that, would we find a place big enough to get our stuff in that we would need, the entra cost of moving twice, we would move twice, oh yeah, covered that, extra cost for storage, moving twice, extra cost of moving twice, I still have a lot to go through and get rid of and don't think that I could be ready to put the house on the market by March 1, and moving twice. No, we cannot keep the big loom in a non climate controlled storage unit. No, moving in May doesn't work for me. I have a show the 2nd weekend, I have synchro meet the 3rd weekend which would be my last as a Michigan judge then I have a show May 30 - June 1. Moving in June is possible but then I would be looking for a hotel for Ann Arbor art fair. I know that next year I will, but I can wait a year.
I talked to Denise our very patient and understanding real estate agent. We discussed the downpayment issue, the moving twice issue and how the price negotiations will go. I feel much better. She also told us that she will be checking on the house as the building process goes on. That really made me feel better. She had called the sales lady this past Monday and didn't get a call back then she got my email about if things were ready. She is going to call again and try to get some answers. Unfortunatley we are in another deep freeze so while it is not as cold there it might be too cold for outside work and there is another cold snap coming. Why couldn't we have done this last year with the mild winter.
I am feeling better about the whole thing and hope that soon things break loose. If we sign on February 1 and the can build it in the 6 month time frame, they say 6 - 8 months we would be moving in the house in mid August. That would be nice. Not that I really want to move in August that sucks, but Douglas would be available.
Keep calm and get rid of junk.
