Waiting Game

Still no offers on the house. We are just gonna move forward and hope things work out. We will just have to keep lowering the price of the house until it sells :-
We did another open house Sunday. (It is getting old for all of us) The turnout was disappointing but it was something.

It is really frustrating because by all accounts (realtor and those who have viewed it up to now), the house is very well kept, It's Clean it shows well, the lot is pretty, its a good locations.... And the other houses in the neighborhood have sold and are selling for more $/sq. ft. than ours. I guess it is just not the right house for this area and the people looking.... Not much more we can do to the house. We have repainted many of the rooms, removed wallpaper and such. Other than re-do the kitchen with gourmet appliances and solid surface countertops, and perhaps expanding the living room (yeah right) there is not much more we can do other than lower the price and be patient I guess.

We have started packing in Ernest at this point. Getting the stuff that will be stored in boxes, numbered, labeled and down to the garage so when the Pod shows up Friday we can get it loaded up. Then we will work on the stuff we are going to have in the apartment.

Other than that we did family pictures this morning. The last time we had professional pictures with all 6 of us done was probably 8 years ago. And I am not sure when all 6 of us will be in one place at one time again for a while. So expect a picture in the mail. If you want to perhaps look at the proofs or order some prints for yourselves there is a web site you can go to I think and pick them out and order them. Contact Karen or myself for that information.

The new house is done framing at this point from what we have heard and they have started the mechanical; Plubming, HVAC, Electrical etc.. Howard and Nancy have taken some pictures and are going to send them to us hopefully soon.



Gotta run
