Since my last update… on October 19, we were required to get MORE document disclosures to the bank for the processor.  So once again I contacted my CPA and gathered more data to send off.  Not sure if they just sit around and think… “hmmm what else could we ask for that seems a little ridiculous?”  Anyway we scurried around like little squirrels gathering more info., to send off, to prove who we are and what kind of track record we have had the last few years.   For most of you, this will not take as long and you will probably not be required to gather soooo many things together, but since we are self employed they are a little over the top with certain things.  However, we ….

have noticed an increase in unusual and strange request regarding loan documents and verifications this last year.   I guess that is to be expected with new standards on all mortgage loans.

Still working on making a final determination on the bids, but will update that info.  once we know. 

We also had a speedy approval from the Parish Permit office with our plans and have that step completed!!! YEAH…

Soo, while we wait,,,,, tic tock, tic tock,  we are getting a little bored and decided that we might as well set the post for the deck on the pond.  Here are a few pics to let you see how that is going.  Oh and the plumber is also somewhat of a jack of all trades.  Kind of handy to have around the last almost 33 years…

Slow work in progress…

Future Growth of Trees… Hmmm I wonder how long that will be before ours look like this? 

And our little Mags looking on in curiosity… she is loving being a dirt dog. 

Our next step is getting the closing date set, once we have the appraisal in.  AND then on to the real project where I hope to be able to bring you updates on a weekly basis.
