homeless-ish.

our house is SOLD! after almost 10 months on the market, and after knocking abour $15k off the asking price. bleh. but at least we don't have to pay for a house we aren't living in anymore! i hope the new owners will love our house and our neighbors as much as we did.

we had planned to take a couple months to save some money before looking for a new house, but it hasn't worked out quite that way. we have an offer accepted on a house one street away from T's work (and happens to be right next door to some of our best buds). we're waiting to see if the financing will work out. if so, and if it passes inspection, etc., we'll be the happy owners of a house straight out of 1970! it'll be retro house update, volume 2. however, this time we won't be using money we don't have to fix it up. ca$h, what a concept, huh? we'll be sticking with the same color scheme that we had in the other house (grays, teal, lime green, and whatever else struck my fancy), but will have a little more time to do the fixing up work before we actually move in. it's always easier to paint before the furniture is there! and speaking of furniture, all of our worldly possessions are being stored in a moving truck. i hope it doesn't catch fire, cause we don't have homeowners insurance anymore (a downside to being homeless, you know.)
