The House Situation
Wow. I am not sure whether to be ecstatic or mildly annoyed. We are having yet another showing today (good thing), but we just got called at 11:30 am to advise us there is a showing at 1:00 pm today (very short notice=bad thing). We were supposed to be given 24 hours notice minimum for showings so we could pick up the house and arrange to have all eight of us living here up and ready to leave before the potential buyers get here. Also, only persons who are pre-qualified or pre-approved for a loan are supposed to be getting showings for the house, and yet the one that was here yesterday was not pre-anything!
I guess Donnie. Giovanni and I are going to walk up to Staffmark so he can update his drug screening to see if they have any temp jobs he can work while we are waiting for the house to sell. This house had better sell quickly, because I am most definitely ready to move on.
Oh, and we are still in the midst of packing and sorting everything in the house. I never realized how much stuff we have. It amazes me when I go through things and realize how much I had bought while working 16 hour shifts at the police department, and never used them, or even took them out of the box. I found that I have 2 or 3 of some items, none of which have ever been opened. Once I'm done sorting and packing, I may never need to buy deodorant, shampoo, razors, razor blades or batteries again! Well, at least not for the next year or two.
Anyhow, I am off of here for now so that I can get dressed, get Giovanni dressed, pick up in both bedrooms, find shoes, get the stroller out, prepare the diaper bag, make bottles for Giovanni and get a ice cold bottled water ready for me, put Gio in the stroller, and head out the door, all within the next hour.
I love you all and just keep your fingers crossed this house sells quickly! I am, in my opinion anyway, going slowly insane with each passing day!

Hey everyone! Our house is on the market, as you all know, but HERE is your first chance to see an official listing of it! We are going to add many more pics, and much better ones, as we get them taken. Our Realtor, Chris Reed, of Victor Casasanta Realty Inc, is going to list us on Realtor.com as well as his own personal site. As soon as those listings are up, we will let everyone know!
We are very excited about this, and are looking forward to our move to Michigan. For those who don't know, we are looking at the Battle Creek area, or Calhoun County in general. We have found a couple of houses that we really love, but cannot make any offers until we have this house in contract.
If anyone knows ANYONE who wants to live near Columbus, OH, please have them check us out. We are less than 15 minutes from Columbus here in Grove City. It is a great little ranch home in a nice, quiet area. Very low crime rate here. In fact, in the 22.5 years I've lived here, there has NEVER been a crime here, and only maybe 2-3 on our street, and that was a DV and the people moved away about 5 years ago.

Our house is Officially on the Market!!!
So, we listed our house with Chris Reed of Victor Casasanta Realty today, and he is very optimistic that it is going to sell quickly. We have an asking price of $134,900. It's a great little house, it's just too small for us, and seeing as how I've lived in Ohio my entire life, I am looking to move on.
We are most likely moving to the Battle Creek area of Michigan (Go Bucks!!!) Anyhow... our house will be listed on Realtor.com in the next couple of days, and I will let everyone know when it is up and running on there!
I am soooo excited!!
