NWR - Accepted an offer on my condo
DeniseD in Community Conversations, on May 18, 2015 at 4:48 PM

Phew. It went on the market the week of the wedding. I didn't want to hold out for a better price. The price will cover all the closing costs, that is all I am happy about. Closing will be in July.

DeniseD in Planning, on March 17, 2015 at 4:35 PM

The dreaded blank RSVP but having listened to the advice on here, I had them numbered on the back, and hunted down the culprit. Crisis averted.

Three invites had incorrect addresses and were returned today. We got the correct ones now (wrong street address and a missing apt. #). Do I need new postage (i.e. new envelope) or can I just correct...

So met with the Orthdox Priest on Wednesday night.
DeniseD in Planning, on March 5, 2015 at 9:15 AM

It went better then I thought. I get anxious in general and I'm not the most appropriate person around clergy. But he said we should think about doing confession which neither FH nor I have done. And...
