Moving....

I know I haven't been blogging as much. I've been really busy. I'm sure my regular readers who don't really know me have given up on reading this, since I no longer post the witty, thought-provoking stuff that I used to. Ha.

So, this is for family and friends who are wondering if I'm still alive and what is going on with me.

We finally found somewhere to move while we wait to see if our offer on the house that is in pre-foreclosure is accepted. As it turns out, we found a townhouse that we really like. We almost like it better than the house we are trying to buy. I didn't expect much, as we were really just looking for a way to live cheaper for a short time, but the townhouse is much larger than I thought it would be, and it has a lot of features that we really like. There are 3 bedrooms, plus a bonus room that could be another bedroom or office. The living room is huge, and the kitchen is pretty good size, as well. It's three stories, with a 2 car garage on the first level, and balconies on the 2nd and 3rd levels. There are 2 pools, and although this particular unit isn't on the water, the community itself is, and there is a nice dock and a boat slip available. Even better, the people who own it are wanting to sell it, and offered us a lease-option.

I was worried about not having enough room if we moved to a townhouse, but it's actually bigger than the house we are in now.

I don't know what we are going to do about the house we've been wanting, but it's obviously going to take a while. It's a short sale, and we aren't even 100% sure that our offer has been presented to the bank yet. The people who own the house are going through a divorce, and they HATE each other, so everything turns into a huge fight when they try to discuss it. So, we might end up buying the townhouse. It would be nice not to have a lawn to deal with. And even though we wouldn't have a yard for Captain Chaos to play in, the playground that I sometimes take him to is literally in the backyard. You can see it from the window in the master bedroom.

So, I have no idea where we are going to end up eventually, but I do know that it's time to start preparing to move, for the 6th time in 5 years. :(
