We are still in the hotel. And, unless we secure the VA appraisal by 1pm tomorrow, we will be here for at least another week 🙁 Ugh. We are both feeling pretty defeated and frustrated right now. But, I did spend Friday in the district with a childhood friend while waiting for Erin to get …
Erin is off to work, and I am planning to spend the morning drinking coffee, going for a run, and doing absolutely nothing! 🙂 I have made some cranberry sauce (fun fact about me: I loathe canned cranberry sauce, especially the stuff that comes out shaped like a can) and I am going to pick …
Most of you know the whole story. But, we are not yet in our house. In fact, we have no clear idea on when it will happen. We should be closing on the last day of the month. So, at the latest we should be in December 1st. But, with our realtor and the seller’s agent MIA – …
