We're Moving on Monday!

That's right! We finally got a closing date for the New York house. We're closing on Monday, March 30 at 1:30 pm. Once the closing is completed, we'll turn over the keys to Michele and Brian and we'll hit the road and head to our new house.

We're scheduled to do the walk-thru in the new house on Wednesday morning at 9:30 and then we'll close at 11:00 that day. We should be moving into our new digs by 1:00! YAY!

The irony of this story is that when we bought the NY house back in 1997, we moved in on March 31. The night we moved in, Bob's Uncle Rick was in the NCAA playoff tournament and won that year.....hmmm, let's count the similarities. We're moving at almost the same time (moving day is technically April 1), Uncle Rick is in the playoffs .... it'll be fun!!!

While I'm excited about moving, I'm not really looking forward to the drive. Since our closing in NC isn't until Wednesday, though, we've decided that after the closing on Monday, we'll only drive about 1/2 way and stop somewhere in Delaware for the night. That will probably also be better for Shania since the longest car ride she's ever taken has been from Ronkonkoma to East Hampton or Riverhead! There's a HUGE difference between 10 hours to NC and 1/2 hour to the east end. I'm sure she'll be fine.

Hope everyone is well! I'll keep in touch!

Love ya,
Faith
