And now for the next great adventure

As of 9:30am today, I am (temporarily) no longer a homeowner. I'm living in Concord now and shopping for a new house. In fact, I've put in an offer on a new place already. It's a short sale, which means in practical terms that I now have a couple months (roughly) to wait for the current mortgage holders to decide whether they want to accept it. I won't be blogging publicly about it (probably not even under flock) until something concrete happens because there's always the possibility that anything I post could come back to bite me in negotiations. My basic position is that I will eventually buy a house that will make me very happy. It may or may not be this one. I don't intend to get emotionally invested in any particular house (beyond the basic emotional investment that one should have when making a decision to buy).

This is still not the bicycle/commute review post. Real Soon Now.

Every time you talk about your new place-to-be, I get a little homesick. Bossman & I met at the Weapons Station there and set up our first home just down the road from our duty station. I most likely wouldn't recognise any of town now, but your posts trigger some very happy memories.

Ohhh, I'll keep my fingers crossed. OK, maybe not that long though....
BTW, the local farmers market has started for the season. It's on Thursday evenings and includes a free concert. We sometimes go as a group so I'll keep you posted!

I hope the next phase of the move goes well.
