So it's final that the closing of escrow is not going to happen today. *sigh* that means this wknd we can't do anything to the house.... that means all the work is going to be delayed and even more due to the holidays.
This morning I got to work before 7 since I had to leave for a bit to go sign the escrow documents. Justin picked me up at 7:45 he's such a good sport about it and everything that has been going on and we had to drive 30 min to go to the escrow office. Good thing it was AGAINST LA traffic. o man. we saw the traffic on the other side of the freeway.
I got back to work in 2 hours after signing like a million documents. My dad then drove to my work, picked up the wiring instructions, headed to the bank, did the wiring, then headed back to the house to meet with the retrofitter for final inspection. I don't know what I would do if my dad wasn't here. I think my stress level would be like 100 times worse. I am so thankful that he is here, and truly helping me every step of the way. And in the process, I (and Justin) have learned a tremendous amount of things... and gained experience for that house we will someday buy together :D
So. Got tonight and this wknd planned out. My dad and I and maybe Justin are going to Ikea tonight and probably eat at Porto's since we're in the area.
Then tomorrow we're going to City of Industry (such a weird name for a city right? When I think about the name, I think of a city with really bad air quality, haha) to check out flooring materials. Tiles, wood, carpet.
Then we are going to plan even more on the bathroom layouts and decide what kind of vanity, shower, etc.
But I'm still super thankful!!!! Despite the glitch we had with home insurance, we can still move on and ALMOST to schedule. Gotta thank God for that.
