closing date and other things

my closing date has been postponed by two days...so that means i'll be closing on 7/10/09 which is this Friday instead of Wednesday. as if anything else could go wrong, i mean i've been ready to move since June 1 but just waiting on paperwork and things to work themselves out.

i've been seriously looking for a refrigerator on craiglist and a couch that is or could be easily turned into a shabby chic look. it has been a definite learning experience to learn to shop on craigslist for an appliance like a fridge. my opinion of clean and in good condition isn't the same as other's evidently! and finding a couch...i'm so over it! my living space is so small i can only have a certain size couch and evidently the going trend now is to have very large couches b/c they are in all the furniture stores! so now i'm trying to find a clean couch on craiglist to put a slipcover on. i know it will work out, but for now i'm ready to take a rest for a day and watch the final michael jackson tributes tomorrow leading up to his memorial to take my mind off of what i really need to do!

Oh Amy, you know I feel your pain. Moving and the stress that comes with it is overwhelming! Good luck with everything. I can't wait to see how you decorate your new house.

I got my refridgerator from the sears outlet for less than $600.00. Most of their stuff is new but has some scratches/dents...the only thing wrong with mine was that it was missing an ice container but the guy let me take one from another one! Its worth checking out...

Amy,
Good luck with the closing tomorrow! I am so excited for you. I know that everything will fall in place. I would love pictures of the house when you get moved in. Have fun!!!!

I am finally posting to your blog... I read it quite often... we have a few things in common...teaching and adoption...anyways I wanted to share with you that we got our fridge from Home Depot it had a scratch and we got a really good deal on it plus the scratch is on the side and you can't see it for the cabinets... looking for a couch... try a second hand store... where I live we have upscale second hand stores and then your normal Goodwill type... you could also look for estate sales or auctions.. just some ideas...good luck with your move!!!
