The Good Life at a Great Price™! :)

After long months of getting our current house ready for the market, it is finally listed (Fonville-Morisey / realtor.com) and ready for a new family to make it a wonderful home.

Will I miss having an acre under the house? Yeah...but the new lot in Garner and a much nicer house has more attraction (and the wide lot will make it feel much less cramped than others in Vandora Pines which will help). This was Daddy's first home that he bought but as the Supertramp song says, it's time to be moving on!

Hopefully it'll work out that we're selling this house at the same time we're moving into the new house and ranches supposedly sell better than two-story houses. I'm rather hoping that the improving economy (so they say) and that theory will work better than it did when we were selling Mommy's house. We'll see about that...but Ms. Mitchell seems reasonably confident that the house does show well (and with some of the things we have done like the tile floor in the kitchen and the paint job ought to really bring 'em in to see the place).

One thing our out-of-town Eagle-Eyed BLOG readers might want to take into account...the answering machine is off the air here for the duration so that we can work the security system remotely if need be. Daddy's cell phone has voice mail if you need to leave a message and it will be ignored...errr...replied to most urgently! :)
