So tomorrow is the day when we get possession of the Delaware house, so Carol and I go up to the lawyer's office today to sign the papers that will release hundreds of thousands of dollars into the account of the seller.
Eek!
Our bank (ScotiaBank at College have been great) has arranged bridge financing to cover us for the five days until our buyer releases hundreds of thousands of dollars into our account, but until then the main goal is to get serious on the major packing items like kitchen, garage and basement.
The garage is truly unholy, but my plan is to simply throw most of it into the back of the car and take it up myself rather than try and pack it for the movers.
Then on Friday evening, the real estate Gods willing, we'll go over with the kids, some treats and maybe a picnic, and have a little celebration in the large and empty living room. I think the hockey mini sticks may be required too.
