Biting Off More Than I Can Chew

15-May-08

We Have a Closing Date on the Townhome

07-May-08

The builder e-mailed us Friday to confirm a set-in-stone closing date of Friday May 30th. That gives us the weekend to move our stuff and the week to ensure we don’t get charged for crap at the apartment before we turn in our key on the 7th.
It’s time to kick the packing into high gear.
