No word.

Well the banking day has come and gone and we have heard nothing on the contract.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Closer???

The latest from the sellers Bank is that the documents have moved on to the second team and we should know if they are approved this coming Tuesday.

And they call it a Short Sale.

Hopeful

Well, last week was a bust.  We never heard back from the bank on the counter offer.  My frustration mounts everyday we don't hear anything.  I am trying to be patient but it is hard when you are so eager to move.  I pray everyday that we will hear something soon and that God will help move this along quickly.

So, I start a new week with high hopes and faith.  The sooner we get in the lease it will interrupt the school year.

Contract Update

So, yesterday we were told that because of new regulation the bank must send the contract back to us so we can counter.  Even though  a this point we all have already agreed on the terms.

So we should receive the contract today to send back to the bank today or first thing tomorrow.

I know... it's silly.

Still Waiting.

So, we still have not gotten word on if the bank has accepted the terms of the contract.  Frustrating to say the least.  I was really hoping that we would at least know something today.

But, on a good note, I did finish the front doormat.  I was going to add more to it, but I think in this case less is more.

Now, the idea is to use similar verbiage to the text on the door at Moria but with a Rohan twist.

First trick was to find out what the words on the Durin doors at Moria said.

"The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak, friend, and enter. I, Narvi, made them. Celebrimbor of Hollin drew these signs."

Now to make it fit for Rohan and our house.
I decided on the following (yes I went all nerd on this project)

"The Doormat of Meduseld.  Speak Friend and Enter.  Gilbert of Annapolis drew these signs."

Anyhow, I thought it was clever.

Home made doormats.

To pass some time while waiting on the contract information, I decided to start working on some doormats.  I am no professional but thought it would be cool to make doormats to go with the house and the Ronan theme.  I finished one on Saturday and hope to get the second one ( more complex) done some time this week.

Let me know your thoughts.

Purchase Contract Review.

The contracts are in for review and should be completed by the end of the week.  Hopefully no changes will be needed.

No word yet.  Hope to have an update in the beginning of the week.

This is it!

This is the home we have been looking at for some time.  We are in the negotiation process and hope to hear something soon.

Purchasing a Log Home.

This page will document the process and construction efforts it will take to make this dream home become a reality.
