SOLD!!!

We think....

Well a long weekend is great, its probably even greater if you work full time, but still was good for me.
Both Jon and I had to work on Monday, and seeing as we were both being paid at $50 and $34 dollars an hour who can complain.

The weekend started off by me doing a mamoth 12.5 hour day on Friday, something that has'nt happened in 3 years, and boy was I knackered.
So saturday was a lazy day including coffee, the paper, bacon and eggs, my neices 2nd birthday party, yummy kids party food and karen and james for chicken and salad tea.
Sunday was spent in the garden for a much needed clean up, watering, composting and fertilizing session.
We had pretty much given up all hope of this damn place selling, so thought that we should start paying attention again to the garden in case we had to go on to the market in a few weeks time.
But of course karma always comes back to get ya, and just as we were coming inside at about 5.15pm with sore backs, aching hammys, dirty fingernails and a freshly planted vegie garden, our buyer Michelle rang.....
They had had an open between 3.45 and 4.45, and had just received an offer and they had accepted. Haleyuhiah brother!!
Of course no paperwork could be signed cos of the public holiday (bugger it), but if all goes according to plan it should be signed, sealed and delivered today.
Im still not getting my hopes up till later on when I officially hear the contract's signed, and then not till Thursday when the cooling off period has expired, but am still excited.

So if all goes to plan a settlement date should be set for 3 - yes 3 weeks time...
We want to move one week before the settlement, so we can clean this hovel up, so that means moving on the may long weekend, ARRRGGHH!
Of course we have packed NOTHING so far, as we didnt really believe it would actually happen. Will it didnt hippen overnight...

So yes my friends, we shall soon be in our lovelly new home. So be prepared for many a dinner party, BBQ (we are buying a new one!)and of course the 12 course degastation dinner...keep october in mind.

Well must dash, as my little blond alarm clock it going off.

PS. Is everyones bedside alarm clock as unreliable as ours? Do they all just forget to go off sometimes? Or is it just our bad luck, as this is the third one to do it...
Two mornings in a row we have been late to work!
