Many of the To-Do list of moving items are getting checked off. We have completed our home inspection and agreed with the buyers the repair list. Not finished fixing all of them, but none are major. Do need to get some spraying done in our crawl space and termite inspection but we several contractors to choose from on that.
I have reserved a Uhaul moving truck. Also arranged to get Shannon's small grand piano moved from my parents' home, who have been keeping it there since her parent's death, to our home in Orange Beach. Found a very reputable company (they only move pianos and organs) to do it for just over $1000. Not big on paying a $1000 for anything, but given that a Uhaul rental for that distance costs nearly $500, it is actually a good price. No matter. We are excited to have a piano in the home now.
The appraiser came by today to get the home information and do his work to show the mortgage lender the home is properly valued. No problem there; just a formality.
After we finish the remaining repair items...we pack. The part I least look forward to. I did get boxes today. We have a month until we move (head out on May 20th) so we have plenty of time, but I can it slip by if not careful.
Much still to do, but so much has been done. I am still a little shocked at the speed of the whole process, but obviously very, very excited.
Every-time we read about ya'll moving we get sad (for our own selfishness) but so happy for you all b/c you will totally be blessed with this new chapter in your life we think. No matter what, please stay in touch! Ya'll are amazing neighbors and friends!
