so moved

Tuesday was moving day.  lucky for us all it was about 95 degrees with 95% humidity - GROSS

the movers were not fans of our 4 flights of stairs.  They arrived at 9 am and complaints of the stairs promptly commenced at 9:23 am.  I stopped listening after a while.  there's only so many times i can say, "I'm sorry" for the structure of a building i didn't even build.  ALSO i lived there for 5 years so i know exactly how many stairs there are.

Mini update

here is a little update - to keep y'all in the loop.  Things are chaos here with the finishing of projects and the packing of EVERYTHING.  Here are a few quick pics to show you what i mean - with the promise of some real blog posts to come.

testing some spray paint on kitchen brackets - don't worry, this is the primer :)

update: Under Contract

well, that was super fast.  we put our place on the market on a wednesday. and had a signed contract the following friday.  I'm still knocking on wood about it, after the crazy times we've had buying a place, ( cough cough winnemac cough) we know that a deal isn't done until keys and money have changed hands, so i'm not exactly counting my chickens yet.  HOWEVER, it feels really good to not have to keep our apartment spotlessly clean anymore!

Our place proved VERY popular.  It was #winning all the online real estate sites, garnering a favorable number of views and saves on Zillow and earning a "Hot Home" designation from Redfin.

our current condo house

As of this morning, our condo is officially on the market!
