In celebration of Lana’s birthday on Tuesday, we all went out for sushi at this awesome place in Dupont Circle called Sushi Taro. It was sooo good and there was a good ambiance, somewhere between swanky and not. This is my first sushi in almost two years and Casey’s in a year so we made sure to budget accordingly for the huge meal.
Well we *had* planned on putting the house on the market this past Monday but that didn’t happen. Last weekend as we were checking off the last items on our to-do list, more things that needed to be done just kept popping up. Things that couldn’t be done in one weekend (we didn’t get to said list till Sunday). Now it looks like the house will be on the market this coming Monday. We have the weekend to get quite a bit of shit done. Hopefully all of our extra attention to detail and my anal retantiveness with cleaning will pay off.
We were going to wait till March to get in on the spring rush (busiest time for those not familiar with real estate), then decided that since Mach 1 fell on a Wednesday we would put it on the market the last weekend of Februrary to get a head start on everyone else but it ended up we’re so ready to be free of this place that we decided we needed to do it now. I drove around our subdivision yesterday and found about a dozen other homes on the market and two that are already under contract hopefully this is a good omen as neither has been on the market that long. Pray that we sell our house quickly and for the highest amount possible or if you don’t do that sort of thing, at least positive energy our way.
