Done Deal

It's a done deal! A few days ago, we closed on our house and got our keys. We are now officially slaves of the Bank for the next 30 years. Never did I think that I would be happy to be enslaved. :)

Yesterday, we went to Home Depot to buy a few appliances that the house was still missing. Today, we lined up at 7:30 am for an hour and a half to get into the Crate and Barrel warehouse sale a few towns away. We managed to snag a nice, big dining table for a quarter of the original price. Yeah, it has a few scratches but it's nothing that a table runner can't hide. We picked out a few more things and tore ourselves away. There were a few other pieces that we would have wanted to get but we decided that we had spent enough. It was totally out of our usual spending pattern that the bank actually called us after we got home to verify our purchases!

And now, to pack. I wish we could fast-forward and skip the entire thing. It's the part of this entire process that I would rather do without!
