And beings as we have to be away from the house during a showing, we took our laptops and went to a cafe in Banks which has a wireless connection... and it felt like magic had been visited upon my computer! I got 6 software updates downloaded, plus 3 other many-megabyte things, plus 5 books from audible, checked my email, read much of Huffington Post, and played a couple of games of solitaire, all in about 2 hours. On my dialup at home, all those downloads would take at least 72 hours... HA! how i do love wireless connection! Tomorrow, we'll take my dad out for lunch while there are strangers in my house. I'm so ready to have this step of the process done so we can move on to getting a house built in Duvall, get moved up there and be out of this limbo! aarrrghh
If you are so inclined, please keep your digits crossed and hopes high that there will be a home buyer with money this weekend who will make us an offer that we cannot refuse. and IF everything happened to move along as i wish, we could maybe possibly even go to Crete for easter again in April. i'm certainly not counting on it... but would be delighted if it worked out that way.
