We are making progress, making progress however slowly it seems. On the closing of my loan on the house I have reviewed the updated Interest Rate Disclosure document and should be ready for Closing next week. It turns out that most of the three-week delay was caused by Appraisal Companies unable to locate comparison properties that weren’t connected to the power grid.
The replacement inverter has been received and installed, restoring us to full power.
After last week’s cold weather, progress is proceeding on Jill’s house.
This shows the rebar and piping installed and ready for cement pouring.
They got the slab poured, smoothed out and covered to keep the cement from freezing before it can cure. By next week it should be ready to start construction.
It wasn’t all good news, however. Below is a view of the plant that died. It was a bit of tropical greenery that was included in the flower arrangement that our realtors gave up when we moved into the condo in April 2003. When all the flowers had died, I noticed that the greenery has started roots, so I planted it.
It had survived ever since but I let it get chilled in the process of moving into the house and it has finally died. That leaves the senior plant in residence the Christmas Cactus that we budded from the house on Aries Drive in 1977.
