House Update

Well, we have been super busy at the Satterfield house with different things in regards to the house(s).  While I was in surgery, we sold our house!!  The prior weekend, we had two offers on the table.  The realtor told each of the buyers to come back with their best and final offer, and one of them came back to us with a full price offer!!  SOLD!  And they want to close on May 5th which left us about 3 weeks to get the house packed up and find an apartment to move into.

Needless to say, we have spent most of our free time lately packing.  Boxes, boxes everywhere!!!  The clutter in the house is driving me crazy, but I keep telling myself it will be done soon.  We got the kitchen completed this past weekend which was a major undertaking, and Casey has been working on getting the garage all packed up.

We signed a six month lease on an apartment, and are working on getting all the utilities and renters insurance set up.  The good thing about the new apartment is it is literally right across the street from my work.  Hellllloooo short commute!  It is pretty small and on the second floor (which I did not want) but we will only be there for 6 months, so I can deal.

As for the new house, the process is moving along......SLOWLY.  We were arguing with the builder about moving the house 10 feet to save a big oak tree.  They finally got the house situated where we wanted it on the lot, and got everything re-staked.  We had our pre-construction meeting Wednesday, and they cleared our lot.  It is so exciting to finally see some progress!  It seems as if it has taken forever to get the project moving.  At least, all of our options and design choices are completed, so hopefully there won't be anymore decision making.  That is all I have for now! :)
