Seems the bank is still twiddling or fiddling or whatever they do these days, but we paid money, obligated ourselves for a lot more (I will be 97 when it pays off) and now have the keys.<br /><br />I think it is from your collective good wishes because our efforts had been fruitless, heretofore.

Glad the system worked, this will be better.<br /><br />Your comment about the process being nightmarish is interesting in that it was more like the old story about the frog and hot water. If you throw the frog in hot water, he will immediately jump out. If, however, you put the frog in a pan of cold water and heat it to boiling, the frog will just sit there and cook to death. Whether that story is true or not, it illustrates this whole thing. If we had been told that we could not close until January 22, over 120 days, we would have jumped out, but as it was, it was a slow cooking.<br /><br />And thanks for the comment on the blog.

Unlike people who receive mine by email, I decided to come to the actual blog to leave my comment. :-)Gerald Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00533602646035026483noreply@blogger.com
