Neighbors

So my new neighbors are going out of town. They are taking a month and biking across several states. Now that sounds really cool. They do have kids, they're older, and they are going too. It just sounds so cool to decide to bike like a hobo. Free and clear. They're bringing a cell phone which is almost ironic considering they are doing a very basic trip. I'd love to not have a destination or three gazillion things when I take a trip and just go and be so physical that you know it's going to hurt and be taxing but at the same time give you such an adrenaline rush that it would be totally worth it. One day. Until then I will still love and worship lush hotel linens, having those three things out of a gazillion that I was happy to have packed, and the journey to the final destination... :D

On another note... moving sucks.

In case you haven't heard, we moved. Yes again. Grandma died (finally) and so we got up and said "I know, we're broke so lets lose money by selling our house and buying grandma's". So we did. In this market we got a great price for our old house (455K) and a decent price for grandmas (we technically had to pay full market price but there was no defined agreement for what market price was... and then they were kind and knocked off 8% for potential real estate and closing cost savings. came out to 505K). We did however end up with a better mortgage terms and a MUCH bigger house with MUCH more work to be done. It's tiring but we're in and we're getting it done. More to be posted later :D
