Closing, funding, finding a place to live.

The first check I recieved for fifteen thousand just posted to my account and the five thousand two hundred shows up on the account but hasn't cleared yet.

It is amazing what twenty thousand dollars will do to your spirits. I was giddy all day yesterday. We went to a wedding in Manti Utah for a great friend of my wife and I found everything to be funny. I have never tasted alcohol or taken drugs but I imagine the euphoria is about the same. I guess I need to get checks like that more often. Russell got a late Christmas present, the buyers got a new years house, and I can sleep better at night. The only real losers in this our my neighbors, not because I'm moving, but because on the loan docs it shows the purchase price at $222,000 with five thousand in closing costs which would put the actual value of the house at $217,000. When the reality is is that the buyer paid $235,000! Russ should write everyone in the neighborhood an apology.

I got a call from the agent working on my short sale purchase with the bank. I will post alot more on this later but want to get everything finished first!
