The sellers of house #2 came back with a slightly higher counter offer so we'll take it. Our closing date is April 1st or before.

I'll have a nice big sewing room and a good size kitchen. We'll also have an actual guest bedroom and plenty of room to put kids on the floor in sleeping bags.
my bf & i went house hunting couple of days ago,exciting because i've lived in this house since '72!
the first house made me sick to my stomach[litterly].FILTHY full of mouse/rat fecies & other worse!i think teen-agers used it as a party house.couldn't believe anyone would show a house like that!!!!!!the 2nd house was just across the street,&instant love !we are putting in a bid this week,wish us luck!3 large bdrms,open floor plan& immaculate!WHAT a difference,& only^k difference in price!i may have a nervous breakground before this is over .
lets hope we both get the house we want,dar

My advice to you is to start packing things up immediately - April will come quickly! Moved 18 months ago and it is a big job. Congrats!

I'm in a college town. I'm going to put an ad in Craigslist and hire a college girl to do the packing during spring break. Of course there's still a lot of stuff packed from when I moved 6 months ago and from the move 2 & 1/2 years ago. For that matter I think there's a box that's been packed since the move in late 1991. LOL

It all gets unpacked this time!!!
