Things are finally moving along as they should, had a stressful few weeks.
I have things together to close on the new house in Indiana on the 14th. Am closing on a rental house sale on Friday. Was on the market for 2 days last week, got inspection, I fixed a few minor items and we are closing this Friday! Full price all cash sale, now that's a deal.
So I'm closing on the new house in Indiana, and likely while I'm up there will be finalizing the farmland sale. Hated to sell it, has been in the family since ggrandad, but it wasn't a lot of land, no place we were ever going to live and the land price was excellent so I let it go. Will almost pay for the new house 8 years old and 4 acres, so a good deal.
The 10th we are leaving for up there for 2 or 3 weeks to try and get stuff done. I am hauling a 20 ft trailer Tom built sides on and my handyman tarped and roped down for me today, its full up 4 ft with "stuff", haven't made a dent here, hope Tom's new 2500 can haul it, he says it won't even know its behind there.
That trip will be a hoot, Sue Anne, me, our 69 pound dog, our old kitty in her carrier. Dog does not like cats!! However he will not bother her with us there, still may prove interesting. I doubt I can stop at a hotel as likely half the load would be gone when I came out (thinking about it that might be the best thing to do!) so will have to catnap in rest parks with trying to feed, water, and let her relieve herself kitty while we have to get out and walk the dog so kitty can do her thing. I am going to drag in there absolutely dead tired, probably take me forever. Nobody will be happy by the time we get there. On the way home we can stop at a hotel so will be ok. Then I will have to repeat this several times I'm sure.
While there need to see about getting driveway widened, need culvert input at state road it fronts on, he said we need 15 foot added to get motorhome in and out and trailer, especially in winter. Tom wants a picket fence and 2 automatic gates all across the front. Need to see about getting the motorhome and other garage built. Having a carpenter build out the closet it has skimpy metal racks, and sheetrock out a storage room above the garage for seasonal clothes, etc. Not loading the basement down with stored items. So I doubt I get all that done but maybe I can some of it.
I will be ready to run away after that!
Oct 11th Tom comes in, has to get 2 places of skin cancer cut out of his arm the 16th they are both carcinomas. Then after a couple of days head back to Indiana. I hope to have the trailer loaded again so at least he doesn't have to do that while recuperating, hope they aren't to deep. I will be tired for months!!
Well better get to bed, have to meet my plumber at the new rent house. Tenant ran washer and was outside and saw water running out, sounds like drain was not connected, hope that's all it was. I don't need more issues right now. So moving right along whether its the right thing to do or not!! Later all
