News

Can't help but the title News automatically brings to mind "Extra, extra read all about it!" I have a coughing child taking a nap right now but might not be able to write for long. So, the news is that we have accepted an offer for our (or rather Husband's) appartment. We sign the first set of papers on Monday (by law they need my signature, too, since I live here as well). The big day which is when ownership transfers to the new buyer is then April 20th and we need to move by May 25th. Scary and wonderful at the same time.

Scary since we don't yet have a house but wonderful that there are no more open houses!!!!!!! Seriously those were getting to us since we had very little time to just hang together as a family during the weekends. It's scary also because we have to move. We have sooooooo much stuff and especially books! Husband will have a very busy May at work so this is really going to be tough on him and this time around it's much harder to get ourselves organized since the little one needs a lot of attention each day. But we'll make it! We have to :).

Saturday we go for the second time to see a house in Masku we really like - I'm in love with it to be honest - and we're bringing mother-in-law, aunt-in-law, father-in-law and aunt's husband with us. In other words, that house is going to be inspected by six people + Lotta :). I love it but it has reached a tender age of 70 this year and therefore there are quite a number of things to consider. We've seen a report on it's condition (14 pages!) and are ok with what it says but do want more information before putting in an offer for it.

The bank is on board with our plans. We can place an offer immediately if all goes well which is really great. I'm not daring to think that far yet, though, since I really love the house and it'll be so hard to let go if need be. I will but it'll be hard especially since it means we need to do heavy duty house hunting to find one before we have to move from our appartment.

But, still, we know that we are very blessed that a buyer came along right now (construction work starts here in our area in late March and will continue untill November). Now it's time to pray for a new home that'll be safe and sound for our whole family.
