Accepted!
Our "dream home" was scooped up by another bidder. But we found an even nicer one!
It looks small from the outside:
But it's deceptively large, just under 2000 sq. ft.! Here's the living room:
Here's the kitchen, with all new appliances:
Family room (they're throwing in the 65" projection HDTV-friggin' sweet!):
Even the basement is nice:
The location is ideal (one of Money magazine's top 100 places to live -- came in at #30), the budget is doable, and I can't wait to move in! Though I will have to -- sellers will need at least a month to vacate, and my apartment lease goes through the end of April.
Still have to do an inspection, but the offer was accepted, and I couldn't be more giddy!
Changes aplenty lie just ahead. Blended families, a dog and cat coexisting (hopefully), new schools, new friends, and the joy of moving.
Severance/vacation pay run out at the end of the month. I'm hearing about several possible gigs that start around then, so I'm hopeful, but we can swing it financially regardless.
Ah, the roller coaster ride continues...
