Housing Update...

Not a whole lot to update you on. Our Contingent offer has been accepted, this means that if we can sell our home: Click to View our Listing that we will be buying the new one.

We sat down today with our lender, Ted J Sherfick of First Horizon Home Loans who is very helpful and went over our options. We now feel very comfortable that we will have no problem with making this happen in a way that will work for us.

We had an open house on Sunday which seems to have had gone well. We had at least one interested family, however they don't have their home on the market just yet... I feel really good about our home selling... But I must say, I am so not enjoying the fact that this process is now out of my control.

I like to know that things I do can impact the process, and this right now is out of my control... I am trying not to let that bring me down, but I think it may be a little bit. I know we keep saying we are in this for whatever comes... however that doesn't make it any easier.

It just happened that the other day the home we have the offer in on had an open house on Sunday. Everytime we go in there we become more attached to it. It just feels right.

The worst thing that could happen is that the house gets sold before we sell ours.

Well enough from me for now.

The Coffee Club

Over the last 2 weeks I have been coming to the local coffee shop to work in the mornings. Everyday there is a standard group of people that is there. When I arrived this morning I was told that I had to have a Dr's note for missing yesterday. :) I guess that meant I was considered a local now.

After a few minutes, I was told that I better get a mug to add to the coffee club shelf. So I am the proud owner of a new Notre Dame coffee mug and I have my place on the top shelf ...

I love living in a small town!

New Job

The new job is one week old today. Things are going swimmingly. Tomorrow early I will be leaving for Cary, NC. Where i will be the rest of the week.

The Support team is based there so I will be going to meet more of them and do some more specific training.

So far this has been great, the people I work with are seemingly friendly even to a former customer. This is going to be a good job.
