Another One Bites the Dust

And no… this has nothing to do with the dead guy in yesterday’s post. The house we made an offer on… they said no.  Not only did they say no, they didn’t counter, they are standing firm even though their own realtor told them that they are still priced way above appraisal.  We have countered […]

Does the Dead Guy Come With It?

Went house hunting today in Mount Dora.  Had some luck.  At least everything today wasn’t a dud.    There was one house we were looking at that was so interesting I had to blog about it. We went to this nice little home, met this sweet little ol’ man that lived there.  All was going well.  […]

Dang it!

The house… the pink house… the pepto bismal pink house… – the one I just loved to death – the one with the art studio in back that would be perfect for the yarn shop – the one with the extra little mother in law cottage – the one with the great big yard and […]

Any of my Lake County based readers know of a good realtor in the Eustis area?  We drove through downtown Eustis last night and now we’re convinced that we want to move there.  Found a few houses and want to see them NOWNOWNOW.  But our Orlando based realtor (from when we lived here before) isn’t […]

Cardboard is the New Black

I had big goals. Get the entire house unpacked in a day.  Maybe two.  But my brain doesn’t function under certain circumstances.  Such as…. how can I unpack the boxes when I can’t find a place to put the stuff that I have no place for? Etc. I knew I was in trouble when I […]

Buried

I’m dazed and scatter brained.  Many of you will say that this just describes my normal state of mind.  And to you I say "meh"! How about a list?  It is probably your only hope of getting any sort of a lucid post. 1.  We went to Washington and arrived to find our house buried […]

Miss List-a-Lot

How about a list?  The brain is a wee overwhelmed and such. 1.  The house (as of this writing) has a contract.  A sale contract.  Inspection today. Squee! 2.  With our history of flaky buyers with our previous house, I’m sure you’ll understand if I’m not totally celebrating just yet…. I’m just waitin’ to see […]
