Closing went very smoothly, though you know how if you say a word over and over again it's like you forget what it means? I'm kind of like that with my signature right now...

I'll be moving in to the outbuilding (it's about a 400 square foot efficiency with a loft) on Friday--nothing much, mainly just a bedroll and some clothes. I'll be moving into the house proper a few weeks after that (will probably try to have moving day be Saturday the 27th).

(~smile~ For comparison/reference, the outbuilding is about the same size as the apartment I first moved into with a friend when I came out to the East Coast.)

I now have in my pocket the single largest cashier's check I have ever held.
I now have on my face a giddy grin that refuses to leave.
I now have on my mental calendar a note to leave work at 12:30 to go do the pre-closing walkthrough.

It is, perhaps, a good thing that I am not actually taking full possession for another couple of weeks--it's one of the things that is enabling me to concentrate at work at all this morning. Even so, that concentration is pretty limited and keeps being overrun by daydreams. I'm so glad that it is daydreams and not nightmares about everything that could go wrong in the next few hours. (I'm so glad that I am working with a competent realtor and--after dumping my initial one--a competent lender who've gone over everything with me enough times that I am confident all our ducks are lined up).
