I'm at the office waiting for my final payment from the pant to finish this house up. Today is the final day of work. I have to lay the brick sidewalk and paint various surfaces today. Alice took the day off and we're gonna stay up late until it's done. The final inspection should go this afternoon or tomorrow morning, followed shortly by the bank appraiser. All our documentation is in, so after the appraisal it's sit back and let the mortgage process and then close. "Sit back" is not quite it- we also have to move in and unpack, and get ready for the family who are coming down to break in the house with Thanksgiving next week. So, busy- but after today starting to slow down to some semblance of normal life. I hope.
