Bartered back and forth with the buyer who was acting like he was doing me a BIG favor. Well, we agreed to reduce the price of the house and I signed 20 minutes before the deadline hour. I now have 25 days to get this all done and be out to the next dwelling. Trying to recoup some of what I spent on deposits, boxes, packing supplies, with a garage sale or two.
Will have the next 25 days be a whirlwind of activity, between work and home. Requested that R-2 search for a storage place this next Thursday when he is off, and acquire it. I do that with the idea that he will sign responsibility for the storage and if he wants the 10 boxes of trophies and pictures and miscellaneous sports memorabilia between he and my son, then he will need to know it will get paid by him. I am elated and also scared ( hello fear again!) just because of the overwhelming myriad of things to do and close services, change mail addresses, etc before closing. I feel like this has been a gift handed to me, so that the one huge barrier of owning a declining house and unable to walk away, was draining my possibility of moving forward. So life now noisy and busy with activities. Cant or wont start trouble, in order to finish this business and clearly think ahead. Thank you for your thoughts and support!
