So, we're moved out of our house temporarily. I couldn't imagine trying to maintain the necessary cleanliness level required to sell a house with two kids and a dog. My parents were kind enough to open their door to us. We'll be living with them until the house sells and then we'll move back into our house to pack up and move out. Then, we'll move back in with the 'rents until we find a new house. It's really getting scary now knowing that we'll soon be without a house. I just hope we can find something we like before school starts up, and that we don't have to end up "settling" for something because we run out of time.
The house has now been on the market for one full day, and there has been a ton of interest. I accidentally walked in on an agent and buyer this afternoon - oops. They asked me a few questions, and I quickly departed. We're expecting to get multiple offers, so that feels pretty good. We can use all the money we can get for the new house purchase.
Living with the folks is going just fine. Some people cringe when I tell them we're living with my parents, but they just don't understand how fantastic mine are, and how great it is to be with them. I just hope they can put up with us for this extended stay.
One funny thing that happened yesterday...I got up early and was trying to close the door to the kids room, which is right next to ours. There was a fan on in the house and the door just wouldn't close after several failed attempts (windtunnel effect). While I'm trying to close the door one final time I hear Matthew call out, "Come in here and show yourself!" in a very authoritative manner. He cracks me up!
