Oy. I’m feeling stressed beyond belief. We have a short closing on this house so I have to scramble to get everything together. It’s very distracting and I’m trying to hold down a job. My work has been very flexible but it’s been a lot for me to try and do.

The good news is that it is all getting done. Today we came out of attorney review so we are locked into contract. So the house will most likely be ours unless we discover something crazy wrong with the property. We had our home inspection today and the inspector was awesome and everything went well. We have some standard maintenance issues but the house looks great. Now it’s mostly paperwork.

I’ll be excited to get into our new house before the winter. We have some aesthetic changes we want to make that are no small potatoes. We plan on putting hardwood floors in the whole house, repainting the interior, and gutting and redoing the kitchen. So we have a hard road ahead of us. It’s tiring just thinking about it.

Anyway, I really want to get back to working out. We’ve been taking a lot of really long walks around town, usually around 2-3 miles. But we always end up at the local ice-cream shop or pizza parlor.

I have to get some relaxing time in tonight. I’m off to go indulge in a rented movie. I can’t wait to catch up on my favorite bloggers and discover some of the newcomers I’ve noticed commenting here.
