There have been exciting things going on here. The house next door has been sold. That is good and bad for us. It means that houses are selling but it was listed for over $20,000 less than our house. We've noticed several cars that appear to be looking. We hope they're looking at our house and not the neighbor accross the street. We spent the day working in the yard doing some things that I've wanted to do the entire time we've lived here. The planting area in front of the house had no barrier between the dirt and the sidewalk so dirt and mulch were constantly spilling on to the sidewalk. Matt put in concrete edgers today and they look great! We also added new mulch. We took out a bush next to the door that was trampled by the siding repairment last spring and subsequently died and replaced it with some type of green thing. I also planted a few flowers. Matt worked on putting down a little path from the gate to the porch in the backyard tonight. He worked until he had no daylight left. He has a meeting in Urbana in the morning so it'll just have to be left half done for now. I hope we have showings tomorrow but at the same time I want another day to finish things. I have homework I need to get done so I'll most likely be up all night tonight.
We think we may have found a place to live in Seattle. We had found it a while ago but wanted to keep looking because it is not in the city but only 20 minutes outside. It is a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom condo that is larger than our house. I called today and they said that since they just remodeled all the units they haven't decided if they are letting dogs in. The lady who I talked to was so nice and said she was trying to convince them. She is going to call me back on Tuesday to let me know. I'm trying not to get my hopes up but I really want to live there! She was telling me all about the condo we would live in. It has a straight view of Pugent Sound with no house or anything and a little yard. Everything about it sounds good for us.
