Getting things done

With us closing on the house in a few days, we have started to hit the short haul stretch. We have to gather our financial documents again for the loan which we already qualified for and get everything set there, as well as get insurance policies in place etc. We have had a lot of showings lately at the townhouse but so far nothing has transpired unfortunately. We have lined up a renter who will be moving in shortly after we move out, a young couple with a cute 2 year old. They seem like nice people, they actually really wanted to buy our townhouse but they couldn't qualify for a mortgage.

So, things are going well, but busy. We had our Oscar party this weekend, although there were only a few participants due to the fact that we hadn't moved yet. I was sick as a dog, so I didn't enjoy myself too much unfortunately. I was sick most of the weekend, and also on monday and am now starting to feel slightly human again, although I would say I am only at 70 percent. The bug that is going around sure will take you out.

I'm also in the process of ordering blinds for the new house. We aren't going to order all of our blinds at once (we want to conserve money just in case our renters do flake out) and so we are just doing the essential blinds like the bedroom, bathroom and living room and then we'll go from there. We are ordering from 1800 blinds which I have ordered from before and think they have done a decent job in the past!

That's all folks!
