View from the summit of Mount Paperwork

....And we closed on the house today. Yup, I'm just as surprised as you are. It doesn't feel real yet because we're waiting on something from the other bank before they can get their money and we can get the keys, but I defenetely signed more paper today than I have in my printer at the moment. Leigha didn't have school today so she and Bri got to come with us when we went to the bank and then to the celebratory dinner at Californos in Westport. (Excellent restaurant, if you haven't been there. Oh, and is that a UFO in the sky? What's up with that?) We hit up Half Price Books as well to get some home improvement books and some reading material for me, since I have packed my books and just finished the ones I kept out. Hopefully we get the all clear first thing tomorrow so the insane week of cleaning and painting can begin. Wo0t! *confetti*

Ah, the glory and wonder of: "We just need your signature here...and here...and here...and your initials here...and sign here....and right here..."

And then write the biggest check of your life.

Totally worth it. Congratulations!

And now prepare yourself for twice-daily trips to Target and Home Depot.
