House Warming Party?
Not quite—but hopefully soon. I have put an offer in that was accepted on a condo!!!!! I am so excited; I can’t sleep and pepto has become my new best friend friend. I have been pre-approved for the loan, but I am just waiting on the appraisal to come in and to verify that I have enough for closing costs (Keep your fingers crossed).
Anywho, about the house (condo). It is in a really cute neighborhood; somewhat older but by no means run-down. It has two bedrooms, 1 bath and about 1300 square feet. It is much better than any of the houses I have looked at in my price range--they were all going to be fixer-uppers. So starting off with a condo is great with me. Everything has been updated except the swamp cooler and the blue carpet in the bedrooms. The rest is nicely painted and well taken care of. Here are some photo’s.

Sweet hu! I cant wait—I absolutely love it. (Clayton bought me an early christmas present....it is a table and chairs--countertop height but the same color as the one the current owners have. It will look great! Thanks Clayt!)
To get things started, I helped my mom clean out her storage unit on Saturday. I bought her some storage totes and made three piles (like on the TV show); one for “KEEP”, “SALE” and “TOSS”. Talk about chore and a half. She doesn’t like to get rid of anything but she has a garage full of stuff, which by the way she hasn’t used since we moved here in 2000!!!! But after 8 long hours we condensed it, took a load to the dump and have 1/2 of her garage filled with yard sale items and the other 1/2 keep. I drive her crazy with my constant pushing to get things organized in totes with labels, but it makes it so much easier. She doesn’t have to move all those junky falling apart boxes, I DO! Totes are the best invention since the telephone. I highly recommend them.
Now that our storage is cleaned out, I have a list of things on our fridge—things to do before, after and while we move. Each day we are going to pack a room, drawer or whatever so when it comes time to move we are ready. So if you have any suggestions, please let me know;.....things to look for when I inspect the house for myself, or at closing or moving or anything. ALL SUGGESTIONS WELCOME! I will keep updating the blog as soon as I get some more info. Hopefully this week I will have the appraisal back.
