Ta-Daaaaa

Today's the day! Yip. It's auspicious, it's a RED LETTER DAY, it's amazing and awesome and it's finally here. Today at 1:30pm, dear readers, is the appointed hour when we sign the papers and hand over the keys for the palace. I zipped over there yesterday and took some clippings of my plants, I thought I'd get sentimental and say good bye to the house and cry ... but I didn't. It's not mine anymore and I'm glad to be done with the headache of it. It's as if a great weight has been lifted! ----- Oh, an update on the wet basement: tree roots in the sewer pipes. I called the Drain Clearing Dude at lunchtime, he arrived c. 5:30pm and cleared the pipes. Water now running out of house properly. Hopefully this fixes at least some of our water issues!!!!
