Today was about checking things off the List. I took my oldest to the doctor for her before-school shots and physical and then drove across town to get some more stray medical records for my youngest.
Then I called my realtor. The house buying process is not going as smoothly as most. For whatever reason the sellers are not communicating with us. To make a long story short, they have not sent any of the requested documents or done any requested repairs. I am worried that we will be living in TLF until we can find another home. That isn't so bad except the kids will start school while we are there and then have to switch schools after we move into a home. I would rather not do that to them. Moving is hard enough! I feel like I am failing my kids. Unfortunately I don't have any control over what happens next, so I am trying my best to let it all play out.
To relax and have some fun, I took the kids to lunch and shopping. We bought new backpacks and a few outfits for the new school year. It was nice just hanging out with them.
My husband also got a quote from a painter to paint the inside of our rental house. We plan on asking the landlord to deduct that from our deposit. Normally I wouldn't do that, I would let the management company deal with it. But since this woman is elderly and does not pay a company to manage her property, I felt it was the least we could do. She has treated us so well. We have had many landlords in our adventures and she is by far the best we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with.
So as we start another week I am hopeful there will be no more hiccups, and we can get on our way to our next big adventure.
