The House

[Bobbie]

We sold the house!!!!! After two days of living in House Beautiful, I can return to my former messy ways. We had 13 or 14 showings. Several didn't show up. Hope everything works out. I have learned to hope for the best but accept the unexpected. A nap sounds so good - for me.

Dont start packing untill the buyer cant pull out!
I reckon you will throw away tons of stuff that you have not seen for years and then Don will go and get it back out of the trash:-)

[Bobbie]

Yes, nervous about deal going through. Was a realtor years ago,and some deals fall through.

Don is the "thrower away." I am the retriever.

Fingers crossed for everything going well but I am so familiar with Murphy's Law. Hope for the best; anticipate the worst.

You and me should be soul mates!
We had a lot if work done last year and cleared out most of the house.
Decided to hire a skip last week to clear out the shed where most of the "usefull stuff" went
Linda put my concrete turtle that was missing 2 legs into the skip.

Now thats going too far!
I have a real living one that weighs about 25 pound so raked out the concrete one for old times sake.
Linda then put a hammer through it and turned it into dust!
Our daughter bought us a real one 4 years ago and it was about an ounce.
Its going to live 150 years and be 300+ pound!
She thought that was funny.
I am going to leave it to her in my will.

Wow that was fast, Bobbie! Congrats! I know deals can always fall through, but I'm sure you can breathe a little sigh of relief now!

[Dukiemom]

WOW! That was fast. Congrats. I've been left behind in transfers twice to sell the house during bad economic downturns. Once it took 9 months, the last was in 2008 and it took 1.5 years. This last time we moved I said no more and pointed to the backyard and said that was where the ashes were going! In retrospect I guess that was cdiff humor. I don't know which I would dread worse, a relapse or having to list another house. I guess a relapse, but the choice isn't an immediate slam dunk.I am so happy for you Bobby. Fingers crossed all goes smoothly.

I'm a little late but Congrats, Bobbie!! Time to relax! Take a much needed rest! Rub some of that off on me, hopefully I can get my place sold too ;)

Congratulations. Sometimes realtors will take back up offers too, in case the first one falls through. How long of an escrow did they ask for?

[Dobies#1]

Congrats Bobbie!!! I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything goes thru with the sale!

[NikaNik]

Congratulations! Hope everything goes smoothly and that you love your new place. :)
