Quick Updates

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. We've been even busier than usual, which is really saying something. Here's what's been going on:

1. Things finally seem to be moving again on our new home. We ended up switching to a different lot that we like a lot better. It was a nice and unexpected outcome to what had been a major issue with the builder that almost caused us to walk away from the whole deal. Long story. But, everything is resolved, we are better off, and the foundation has been poured on our new house (in our new lot).
2. Since things are moving along with the new house, we are frantically trying to get our townhouse ready to sell. This weekend will involve putting in a new kitchen floor, painting several rooms, installing new bathroom faucets, power-washing and staining the deck, mulching, etc.
3. Baby Sarah is set to arrive any day now. The official due date is the 22nd, which is less than a week away. Yes, we are crazy for trying to put our house on the market within a week of having a baby. It's partly the builder's fault for screwing things up and not having our new house ready when it was supposed to be and partly our fault for wasting the extra time we then had to get things ready.
4. Once the house goes on the market, we'll be spending a lot of time at my wife's parents' house, my parents' house, friends' houses, and anywhere else that we're welcome so we can stay away while a hopefully steady stream of potential buyers comes to look at our house.
5. Because of our impending nomadic lifestyle (and a nice tax refund), I bought a new laptop, the Dell XPS M170. It rocks! Plus, now that we have His and Hers laptops, we can sit in bed together and play Warcraft. What could be more romantic?

Despite my lack of regular blog updates as of late, you may want to keep checking back here daily over the next week or so. I'll be sure to post as soon as Baby Sarah arrives!
