Finally sold the house - what a relief. With the real estate market like it is, I was facing the probability of being handcuffed with this house for a long time. The buyer put in a low offer - we countered back and forth a couple of times, then I finally accepted a number which a few months ago I never would have imagined I would accept. The buyer is getting this house for a steal.
If it weren't for the agreement, I wouldn't have had to go through this. I didn't want to move in the first place. But, its now time to let this house go and move on. The boys will miss it - but they are already excited for the new house. I took them there a couple of weeks ago and they ran around the empty house screaming in delight.
What will this move mean for my life? Aside from the pain of finding new stores to shop at, a new doctor for the boys, and new ways to get to and from school/work, the biggest challenge will be in maintaining great friendships with people who will now live farther away. But on the bright side, the boys and I will have a house that is just ours, and we will be set for whatever the future has in store for us.
