Lots of real estate issues going on right now. We are having to shop around for mortgage lenders because they all seem to have different standards and rules. We are praying that a gentleman who wants to lease to own our Alabama home follows through at the beginning of next week which will ease some of the financial strain we are under and make banks more willing to work with us, despite our excellent credit rating. The house we hope to buy is being inspected on Friday, we are praying good news comes from that as well.
I have been busy packing and my back is starting to feel the strain. The books inside the house are all packed now, today I move on to quilt and sewing items. Gina is organizing and packing up the workshop with some help from the kids. We are still short of book boxes, hopefully we can pick some more up on Friday.
Weather has turned cooler here - almost like Fall but it is supposed to warm up again, warming up being relative of course to this area, which means 80 degrees (compared to over 100 in Alabama).
We have been told the cooler temperatures are keeping strawberries from maturing this year and tomatoes are struggling. If God blesses us with buying the place we would like, I hope to plant a bunch of things in their big green house to atleast reap some harvest this year.
We will be spending the 4th of July with some local friends and then are back to the moving insanity...:-)
Seems like you would enjoy some restful time...Come here, and bring a bunch of your kids!
