Let me back up. On Thursday, we matched Springfield. We drove home and celebrated. I saw MaryBeth and Alex. We stayed up laaate.
On Friday, Mom and Ross looked and looked and looked at houses. They narrowed the list. They drove. They looked some more. I played with Buzz, Meme, and Pop in the gorgeous weather. I owe them big time for those fourteen hours. They came home drained.
Saturday came in a frigid fashion and we (with an entourage of Mom, Dad, Steph, Barbara, and Darrell) went and saw the two winners of the previous day. Amelia stayed with Meme and Pop. I picked my favorite. Everyone agreed or at least supported. I had a breakdown of the emotional sort. Decided moving again was too stressful. Cleaned up my act. Loved our Realtor. Made an offer. Ate and drove home.
Saturday night was the counter offer and this morning we accepted it in the middle of a March snowstorm.
My baby turned thirteen months old today. We drove home. I unpacked and cooked supper.
Three days. I am running on fumes and excitement. Thanks to some awesome people all that was able to happen. Trying to catch our breath. Did I mention that we bought a house?????????
Lived in a dorm four years. Rented for seven. Ahhhh. It feels soooo nice. Hoping the inspection goes well or breakdown #2 will be upon us. Night.
