We're In!!!

First off, thanks to everyone who has sacrificed their time over these last few weeks. Moving is hell, but your help packing, cleaning, moving, and unpacking has been phenomenal. Next time, I am hiring illegal labor from the parking lot of a convenient store in Waukegan.

So........the move is done. The closing on the sale of the Buffalo Grove house went smooth and we closed in just about an hour. I had a nice big check in my hand for about two hours while Maureen and I were homeless. Then, as is normal, I had to sign the check and hand it over to the title company to buy the new house. We're in the new house and couldn't be happier.

We've been spending all our free time trying to sort out all the boxes and get settled in. Its going to take a few more weeks, but we'll get there. We have to buy some furniture and do some decorating too, but we have time.

Setting up the utilities has been a nightmare, but its just about done. Hanging the TV on the wall is going to be the next big project. We'll post some pictures later, but for now, I just wanted to put something out here since its been so long.

Look out for a housewarming party email coming soon. We think the party will be in late September.
