I need a drink!

[in my most sarcastic voice] Moving is so much fun!

After 6 days with the for sale sign out front, I finally have a lockbox on my front door...my realtor is not off to a hot start there. However, he did show my property tonight and two bonuses: (1) the wife is interested (that's 3/4 of the battle, eh?) and (2) they're approved to purchase without having to sell their current home. Keeping fingers crossed here!

On the other end, I've been waiting for days to hear from the rental property manager about a move-in date for this weekend (since the place is already empty). All this time, I thought they were trying to reach the owner to approve a move in date...and instead it's to approve my pets! Sheesh, if I knew there was a question on the pets, I'd have kept looking LAST weekend! I gave them 'till tomorrow to get approval and then the lease is off and I'll make yet another trip to house hunt for a rental. Like I can really afford to take time away from this packing up my junk to find a rental house.

Enough of my frustrations...at least my house showed very well. I learned well from my good realtors in Northern Virginia. Had the blinds open for light, multiple lights turned on, place is spotless and no clutter. Even left on some soft jazz music. Just wanted to share this photo with my sisters...dressed up my plain, boring headboard-less bed with two room dividers pulled out of the sunroom. Not bad for my shot at 'staging' a house for sale, eh? Ah well, it'll be empty soon enough.
