Alright, for all of you on the edges of your seats as to the ongoing saga of shortyb, I now finally have my own house again. After 6 weeks of several 473 mile (one way) trips to and from my old house, living with my in-laws, and wearing clothes out of a suitcase, I closed yesterday.
A very nice couple with a young boy bought the old house. Perfect fit for the neighborhood as there are lots of kids around. Kind of reminds me of us when we moved in almost 4 years ago. Bit of irony, he is a police officer too. Neighboring dept. and we have lots of uniformed friends in common. Some of the neighbors are happy to be replacing one cop for another, but some are not (already given the new owner premise history
).
Anyway, nice to be back in my own place.
