Woe is Me: Closing Docs Didn't Show

What can I say? We are s-o-o-o-o disappointed. Our lender promised a close on Oct. 29, and here it is Oct. 29, and no closing documents. Good thing we didn't order our truck.

We'll just have to wait and see what happens in the next few days, but being Friday (and our contact at the bank took a long weekend), nothing will happen before Monday at this point.

Oh well, guess we'll just sit back and enjoy Trick or Treat (Saturday night) with the kids.

Our new home on Newberry's main thoroughfare across the street from Newberry High School.
In the meantime, found a photograph I had taken of the new house and thought I'd share. It was built in 1900 and has two bedrooms, 1 1/2 bathrooms, a formal dining room with French doors to separate it from the living room, a full basement and all original woodwork and wood floors. The staircase is beautiful and the landing is where I plan to set up my office. There's even a door off the foyer into the living room that has beveled, leaded glass and the original glass-knob hardware.

What do you think?
