14 YEAR TREND ENDING

So it's official. We are moving. We get the keys tomorrow. I am sooo excited! I la-la-love our new house, the neighborhood, the city-lights view, the bike ride to the club, the cute shopping center to do my grocery shopping, the trees, the plants, the peacfulness of it all. I can't wait. All I need is a Vespa, WWII safety goggles and helmet so me and my guy can cruise around sans-car. Anyone who knows me, knows driving solo on a scooter is nothing short of life-threating Dangerous, that's right a capital D.

Even more exciting - borrowing no catrastrophies and my life has been prone to them of late- this will be my first time living in one place for more than 2 years for the past 14 years (and that was only 1 spot - the beloved Rose House in P-town). I can't wait not to move again for at least 5 years!

Unexpected Conversation

our new house
So I called up our landlord to give her 30 days notice since we are hoping to closing escrow in 2 weeks.

It went something like this...

Me: I just wanted to let you know that we finally found a house and plan to move out in a month. We've loved living here, but are exciting to move into our own home.

Her: Don't feel bad. I've been meaning to call you. We're letting the house go and you'd probably have to move out in 3 months anyways because it will be foreclosed.

Fingers crossed escrow goes through so we're not homeless.
