Hi all!
Our last offer was accepted on the house but... There's some issues with the inspection (water in the crawl space, water heater pops, something with the chimney, yadda, yadda, yadda...) so Greg and the real estate agent are adding an addendum to the contract to get all those things fixed and then have a new inspection before we close. So far no one has mentioned mold. *crosses fingers, knocks on wood, presses thumbs, spins around singing Yankee Doodle Dandy backwards* I really never realized what a bother it was to buy a house (and we've bought a house before) so I totally get why people rent for long periods of time.
In other news, the kids are fine, driving me nuts as usual. Greg's somewhere in the Midwest and I'm sewing a lot for BKD. I've decided to do one of the bigger knitting/yarn/fiber festivals in August so of course my online shop currently has me swamped with orders. I've barely had time to think about the festival beyond mailing in a deposit check and being excited to go to Chicago WITHOUT* children.
It's been an emotional few weeks but I think it should be smoother sailing for a bit. Although there is this nagging feeling that maybe packing and cleaning this house before we move may not be much fun either...
* You read it here, I don't care if the kids have to stay home with the cat (we're getting a kitten as soon as we move, yay!), they are not coming with me. I love them to pieces but seriously, 5 kids are not much fun in a 10'x10' space for more than 10 minutes, let alone 8 hours a day at a knitting festival.
