We Interrupt This Blog For An Important Message.....

With closing day fast approaching (yay!!) and our household being packed up for the big move, it is time for me to announce a short break from our houseblog until we can get the 'net set up in our new house. Hopefully we should be back to blogging about our new digs as early as next weekend. Much thanks to all those who have offered their support, advice, and encouragement during our purchasing endeavors. When next you hear from us Nuclear Bungalonians, we'll be in lovely Ogden, Utah!

Things Are Starting To Look Up

At least on the purchasing end of our journey. We have a binding contract on the 28th St house, with escrow closing on the 12th of next month. The rush to close is necessitated by R's work schedule, he'll be very busy the rest of this year, as his carrier prepares for their move. He is supposed to be off the ship before the move, so at least he won't have to fly back from overseas. But the really good news is that the sellers signed an agreement to repair anything mandated by the VA appraiser or lender, which means there shouldn't be any obstacles to closing on their end. No repeats of 26th St nightmare, yay! Our inspection is scheduled for next week, I have my fingers crossed that nothing wacky turns up. And of course now is when we have to finish packing, cleaning, painting, requesting leave, reserving a truck & lodging, getting quotes for carpet and pest control for the apt. Lots to do before closing day!
