Closing

May 23rd, 2007 · by map · No Comments

If all goes according to plan, we should be the owners of a new home tomorrow in about 11 hours.  Leah’s walking around with a $170,000 check in her purse; it even survived a trip to Domby, which is a miracle.  We haven’t used a realtor for this transaction, so we’ve learned a lot about all kinds of very detailed documents.  I’ll be glad to have all that behind me.

Tonight was the first night of the farm share from ZJ Farm.  Not much to speak of yet, some spinach, lettuce, and rhubarb.  It was nice to have some fresh, meaty spinach for dinner.  One of the first orders of business after we close the house transaction is to demolish the existing kitchen counter and replace it with a new one.  We’re also getting a new stove.  I’m excited about cooking in this new space.
