Time flies...AKA The Homeless Entry
The last month and a half have been so traumatizing, I am not sure I want to relive them. Do you know that when you close a home sale here in Houston, all the parties are supposed to meet around the same table and everyone signs the papers at the same time? When I found that out, I told the realtor in no uncertain terms that I had no desire to meet with the buyer of my ex-home and I wanted separate closings. They were very accomodating. Conversely, when we met with the folks that we bought from, they were extremely pleasant and have been since then, because they are leasing back from us for a month and are already receiving our mail.
Have you calculated that makes us homeless? Indeed.
Howdy's most excellent sister found out and offered her home to us, which is where I am blogging from now. For you folks in Houston, I am now commuting from I-10 and Gessner around the Beltway to 1960 and Veterans Memorial every day. I am so thankful that it's against traffic both ways. Can I complain here that Howdy was out of town on moving day and I was alone? Can I complain that it was Valentine's Day? Someday, I will look back on this and laugh, but not quite yet.
Two more weeks and then we can move into our new house. Not that I am counting...(20 more drives...)
Wow, I've been catching up with you. I am praying that your new home, when
you move in, will be a haven for you all. You sure deserve it.
It does indeed sound challenging, but I hope it only gets better from here.
Good luck!
Oh, my. You need and deserve many cyberhugs, so that is what I'm sending
you. And much happiness,comfort, pleasure and creativity in your own new
home, to help this time of nightmare recede into the mists...
You've been through so much with great humor. I hope things will be
looking up for you and your family now!
Did I miss the post where you sold the house? I'm just so glad you got rid
of it, even though it sounds like you didn't get a good price. Hang on, it
won't be long now until you get to move into your new place, and it will
all be better!!
Ugh, I could never have sat down across from the guy I bought my house
from. He almost sunk the sale just with his sleezy personality. If I had
had to face him in the closing I probably would have opted not to buy from
him.
I hope in the month since your last post that life has settled down a bit,
and things are looking up. It has amazed me for years that realtors
encouraged people to get such large loans on their homes, and the balloon
loans folks were getting out west. My thoughts are with you!
