- Lots of work on the house to ready it for listing (building a mantle over the fireplace, lots of caulking and painting of woodwork, boxing up non-essentials, etc.)
- Listing the house (meeting with our realtor, getting more tips on things we can do to stage, staging the house, etc.)
- Scheduling showings (keeping the house clean AT ALL TIMES, coming home during workdays to get Lucy out, stressing when we don't get feedback)
- Going to Indy again
- Renting an apt. in Indy (!!!)
- Receiving offers on the house (!!!)
- Accepting an offer on the house (!!!)
I'd like to point out that those exciting last 3 points happened this past weekend. I'm not saying anything about how excited we are to have received an offer, since we're far from done. There are still inspections, contingencies, and all of those other scary things that happen before a closing. Wish us luck.
We do, however, have a place to live when we get to Indianapolis. We're renting for a year in a nice complex with a fitness room, pool, and all of that good stuff that we don't get in our house. Our place is just over 1000 sq ft and has 2 bedrooms. Come visit us!
Other not so exciting/fun things that have happened include Oscar getting his first illness, and his mama catching something yucky from him :( Our little man started with a dry cough last week, and it progressed to immense stuffiness, coughs that sound like a seal barking, and not much sleeping to speak of (except for during the day...not much help at all to his parents). The doctor said she thinks it's croup, and he's probably past the worst now. I managed to come down with a 101 degree fever Sun. night, but aside from some wicked post-nasal drip I appear to be on the mend now.
OK, not much else to post, and this has gotten long enough. Now enjoy a few pics I've taken in the last few weeks, and I promise to post again soon.
