Staged, listed, and SOLD!!!

You're not going to believe this, but got and accepted an offer on our house literally within hours of it being listed on the MLS!!! Our agent gave other agents a "heads-up" that our house was going on the market. It hit the MLS around noon today. Our agent called me to tell me someone wanted to see it at 5 - I hustled home, grabbed Freebie, and - here's the pathetic part - we sat in the HS parking lot while the potential buyer looked at the house.


The computer room, guest room, basement, and garage were still messy, but I guess she liked what she saw, because she submitted an offer by 8:00. Mike is in Atlanta today and tomorrow, so we had to discuss the offer over the phone!!! Although it's not as high as we (OK, read I) initially hoped, we decided to accept the offer and not get greedy, given the current market conditions. We got a great deal on our house in Atlanta and the releif of having our house in Rochester "unloaded" was worth any extra money we might have gotten had we waited it out.


Interior Paint: $200

Misc Repair Work: $500

Having you house sold in hours: Priceless!!!

Leaving Kodak.....

Well, I did it. I submitted my letter of resignation to Kodak today. After discussing the pros and cons with Mike, we decided that my time is better spent right now focusing on getting ourselves moved and settled in Atlanta.

I knew back in December that I would not remain at my current position when Mike accepted the job in Atlanta. However, I hoped that there would be a job for me down there as well. As things turned out, that just isn't the case.

I have some mixed emotions about leaving - I have spent the last 10 years of my life here, but I really feel this is the right decision to make. In fact, when I submitted the letter, I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders. Now I just have to decide what I want to do when I grow up.....
