Tuesday morning.
Sigh. I spent last Friday signing a stack of documents, supposedly closing on my house. Nope. Yesterday Fannie Mae decided they aren't done yet and now it looks like I may have to sign everything AGAIN. Which means another trip to Va to meet with the closer and start over. I talked to my realtor at length yesterday hoping I can at least meet them halfway (Danville) which is 2 hours away. I'm still waiting to see if that can be worked out. I'm more than aggravated. Fortunately, I have the weekend pretty clear so if I have to I can drive 4 hours on Thursday, sign a bunch of paperwork, overnight at my sister's and drive back Friday it's doable.
They say hindsight is 20/20. This is my last house so I guess I should just smile and suck it up. I wanted this house for a lot of reasons. It's in the right area of Madison Heights. It's close to my sister. It's a ranch. It was a beautiful home when it was originally built and can be again. It's cheap. It will be inexpensive to live there if I ever get there. It will keep me busy for a long time with projects.
But I will be so glad when this is all done.
