Arghhh...

Trying to be patient. Really. I'm trying. We're just so ready to move in to our new home! We keep getting these seemingly ridiculous delays! Okay, I know this is all in God's time. Patience is a virtue, and all that.

The electrical inspection was today, or maybe yesterday, I'm not exactly sure which. Anyway, the inspector that went out to the house this time was apparently a different guy from the one who made up the original punch list. So, although all of the items on the punch list were completed, this guy saw some more things he wants done. What does that mean to us? More waiting, of course! Probably several days to get the work done and several more to get another inspection. Hopefully the house will pass that one, but then we get to wait for the actual meter to be installed!

On a much more positive note...the appraisal has come through (into our hands, finally) and it looks really great. The guy did a nice job and should not pose any problems with underwriting. Which, of course, we're still waiting on. Another couple of days to get through that process, probably. But it doesn't matter since we are still waiting on the electric meter!! Oh, yeah, patience. Breathe. In. Out. Calm.

We had our termite inspection last Saturday. It's an old house and we expected some termites, so we weren't surprised that our guy found some. No new damage, though, and really, a very inexpensive fix. All is well there.
