Still here

The reports of the death of this blog have been only slightly exaggerated. The reports of our family moving, however, have been somewhat more premature. Not only are we still here, but we have no immediate plans to move. That is, our Realtor, after only six weeks as our listing agent, told us that we should cut the price by 40k if we wanted to sell the home. Since that would mean essentially walking away from the home with no equity, we told him to hit the road, and we terminated our listing.

So, we've begun the process of getting emptying out the storage unit and unpacking some of what we'd already boxed up. We have sufficient storage space in our basement, but we had moved out a lot of stuff to stage the house. We'll be closing that out soon. It's a bit sad that things didn't work out, but happily it also means we don't have to worry about showing our house at a moment's notice anymore. That was very stressful for H, with four young kids in the house, as you can imagine.
