Great news. I’m over in Spokane working for nine weeks, but was able to sign my papers on the house just before I left town. My friend Scott, my sister Maddy, and her co-worker Kevin all did the walkthrough on my place yesterday. If I had to pick three of the most nit-picky, OCD, thorough people in the world, it would be them. I am giddy with how they went through my place and found things I would never have seen. Great eyes and I owe them quite a bit for the amazing job.

The best part is that my realtor informed them I had officially closed and gave my keys to Scott so when I get home on the plane tonight I will be a brand new home owner!

This whole week knowing that I had done everything I could and had left my place in good hands, I slept so well. Better than I had in the past three months and I was more than happy to curl up with my Teddy Bear and fall asleep smiling.

Thank you everyone who helped me get through this. And an advance thank you to those who are helping me move half of my stuff in tomorrow morning before I fly back to Spokane for the rest of my stint as a Blue Shirt.
