    Okay. We closed. we signed all of the paperwork this morning at 8:00AM. We don’t have they keys yet. we will get those tommorrow.

    Would you believe that our realtor didn’t show up for the closing? Isn’t it customary for them to show up? And he is making us go down to his office to pick up the key. Isn’t it customary for him to give us the key at the house?

  • update

    May 16, 2006

    We just got back from getting our Washington Driver’s licenses. that’s one more thing to scratch off of our list of things to do. I can’t believe it took us this long to do this! I thought we were going to need to take the knowledge test, but we didn’t. It was actually very easy.

    Still waiting to hear back from our Mortgage guy to see when we are going to close. I am really getting annoyed. I don’t have the kind of job where I can just drop everything at somebody’s whim and do something at a moment’s notice. When I’m not there schedules need to be rearranged. I mean, do they want to come in and cover my storytime?

    This is such a bad week for this to happen, too. I’ve got so much going on at work that I can’t really get out of. I have all day training tommorrow to go to. I have storytime and then my performance appraisal Thursday. Why couldn’t they get thier act together so we could get this done yesterday, when it was supposed to get done?!? Ugh! I’m so frustrated!

  • House update

    May 15, 2006

    Didn’t close on the house today. We are supposed to close tommorrow and have been waiting around all day for our Mortgage guy to call us to tell us what time and where, but we haven’t heard from him yet, and it’s 4:30. I’m getting kind of annoyed because I don’t have the kind of job where I can just leave at any time of the day at the whim of a f-ing realtor or mortgage guy or whoever. I need to have a time so I can make arrangements with my boss.

    duh…

    Will keep you posted.

    In a new poll comparing President Bush’s job performance with that of his predecessor, a strong majority of respondents said President Clinton outperformed Bush on a host of issues.

    Well, duh.
