I am SOOOO flippin excited. After 3 failed offers (the story is way too long to get me started)....we closed on our house yesterday!! It was a fast sale to a real estate agent who was already qualified. I didn't say a word here or IRL in case things fell through again. But it went off pretty smoothly!
Yay! No more double mortgage, double utility bills, running back and forth between two houses to make sure that everything is OK at the house we weren't living in! No more neighbors and friends asking us "any news yet?" (well intentioned as they are!). I am so relieved I can't even put it into words.
Now....what does a girl do when she all of a sudden has extra money floating around and is no longer stressed to the gills???
Yup, she buys jewelry (with DH's blessing). It will be a while for the big reveal, as I'm working with Ari again and we want to get every detail right. Here's a little hint....it's a RHR....and, for anyone wondering, I'm still going to sell my emerald/diamond ring if I can since I really don't wear it. I think I may keep the eternity band though.
Anyway, thanks to all of you who were so supportive and kind through this 6 month ordeal. It's definitely been a strain on finances and tempers, but we just kept reminding ourselves that it would end eventually, and it did!!
