Busy, yet Quiet

The last week seemed to fly by due the busy schedule; yet it was relatively quiet as far as the events which took place (for the most part).

The House!

Well, as of mid-last week, the appraisal had been done on the house; Friday we found out that it came through without any problems. This means that things are really starting to wrap up in the process. It was also a huge relief, since that would have been the last major barrier in the process. So, as of this time, we’ve set a tentative closing date of around July 1. While I haven’t heard what the exact date is as of today, in discussing appropriate dates, it seemed the most logical for all parties involved.

So, that’s a nearly-complete thing. And there will be a newly-installed septic system to boot ready to go when we close.

Rick the Brick

The last week was Vacation Bible School at church, and I happened to be involved with the daily skit work. Fortunately, it was minimally-invasive and went smoothly. It was also a pretty good time returning to the stage, so to speak. I played Rick the Brick and was costumed in a large cardboard box which was something I’d never done before…so that made it cool as well. And the kids liked it, so that makes it all worthwhile.

Aside from that…

…it’s time to start packing up seriously now and get ready to go. I am fairly sure that my online-ness will be limited for at least the next upcoming month. Partially due to lack of service. I am intending to go with the satellite internet option for a few reasons I won’t explain right here, but when I get that hooked up (and find someone to do it) is something else entirely. I’m also intending on disconnecting phone/Internet/cable service here on or around July 1, so we’ll see what happens…

Until next time…
