The End Draws Near...

It looks like this thing is actually going to happen!  The closing date of June 5th nears and I Just completed the (hopefully) last task to complete the closing process.  Now, All I should have to do is sign the papers on Friday. 


I have to be honest,  There are still some butterflies fluttering around in the pit of my core as I prepare for the unknown.   I still have to think about moving my stuff,  utility transfer, change of address forms, and probably a bunch of other things I have not thought of yet.  I have to clean this house and make it presentable for the incoming pastor. (Wouldn't want him thinking I'm a slob...  At least not as a first impression. ) I know I could prepare for next weekend by packing things up early;  But I know that there are risks concerning that as well.   (Namely:  packing up your dishes or tools, only to realize you need them for the move!) 

I asked for Friday off from work.  Hopefully my PTO will get approved and I will have the entire day to sign the papers and celebrate.   I hate having to feel "rushed" when doing something important... Like working on a Subaru Brake system,  Or building furniture from IKEA.  The signing is at 10:30 and probably will not take all day,  but why take the chance.  (Expect for the Unexpected!)  And besides,   I don't want to be distracted at work after making a huge purchase!

The sellers have already signed the papers and are out of town, so I could have pushed the closing date up a couple of days.   But according to the closing letter,  they need at least three business days after I finished this last task, to prepare stuff.  And at this late in the game,  changing the plans has no real benefit or advantage.  (Why close on Wednesday, when you won't be able to do anything until the weekend anyway?) 

Hmmph!  I figured I would have more to say about things.  I guess I will keep this post short and prepare for the Mushroom hunt I have planned for this afternoon.   Perhaps I will have some luck and be able to post some pictures of my finds.  Otherwise,  I will use the rest of this weekend to Make Every Second Count!
