Closing went well this morning. We had to wait around for the funds to come through the title company, but other than that, it was a breeze. Our mortgage broker, GMAC, gave us a little gift bag with a tape measure and card inside. Also inside the card was a $25 gift card to the Home Depot. How nice!
We left closing around noon and since everyone was on their lunch break, we did a bit of shopping to waste some time. For lunch we went to a Polish buffet that Joe has been to and I’ve been wanting to try. The food was sooo fattening but delicious. I love Polish food. When I lived at home we’d have any large affair at a Polish buffet called Warsaw Inn. From graduations to after-funeral lunches, it was the place we always went.
After lunch we did some grocery shopping and picked up a movie from Blockbuster. Tomorrow we pick up the kids and go to my mom’s for her birthday party. It’s been a great weekend so far!
Congrats on homeownership! Things you have to look forward to:
Grubs eating your grass and raccoons digging it up (although you’ll have someone else tending lawn)
Yellow jacket nests in your front garden
Neighbors building new fences and creating work for you to clean up the mess on your side of the yard (I guess not a problem for you again)
Ah well, it’s all good, it’s worth being as loud as you wanna be in your own space.
