We moved in to our new home between Sept 21 and 29.  The closing went fine and we have received the funds from the sale and paid off the mortgage on this home too.

We are slowly getting settled and more organized.  Have to have a water softener put in next week because the water is so hard here we are getting skin irritation and it will damage our appliances.

Jim is almost finished building a 10X10 shed to store all our extra stuff.

We worked hard and had an offer for a free evaluation so we accepted it. The agent was here last night and we decided it just was going to be too much hassle trying to sell this place ourselves. So it is listed with Royal lepage/State Realty. Sign will go up Tuesday.

We spent the weekend at the new place because our agent is having an open house on Sunday. We arrived home on Sunday and there were 9 couples that viewed the house and an agent came through with someone on Saturday.

We are still at the house. It is listed and showing well. We are receiving our first offer today.

We were offered $214,000 and we countered with $237,500. They have until midnight.

Our agent called and they wanted to come back with an offer of $220,000 but their agent refused to offer as it was still too low so they have withdrawn their offer.

June 19 2005. A lot has been happening in the past few months. We bought another chihuahua in November and named her Angel. Jim installed the new kitchen we had built and it's beautiful Jim tore out all the closets and built 3 new ones. We had problems with our new gas range and it finally was taken back and we added another thousand to get a dual fuel gas top electric twin oven unit and it works super. We've had a sun room added and Jim's been working on finishing it and we have carpet ordered to put down. We have a hot tub almost ready to be delivered that is going in the sun room. We traded in both our cars on one. A Saturn Vue and we have to get a tow package added to it. We have a new doctor and dentist. We love living out here.
