Done deal

I'll miss this view.

It's a done deal. Our house is sold. Escrow closed Friday, and today the money is in our bank account.

Escrow dragged on a little slower than we would have liked, but our realtor told us not to be surprised, since we were trying to go pretty fast. It was a nail-biter at the end, but now it's done.

Now for the next phase - moving out. We negotiated the right to stay in the house after close of escrow. Now it's time to pack up, clean up, arrange for storage, close utility accounts, arrange for shipping, etc.

We fly to New Orleans in a couple weeks. Jack is flying with us, so we're getting him used to his kennel and getting his papers in order.

Next chapter coming!
