: House Buying Adventure

Today I had to drive to Fresno to get my new contacts from my eye doctor, so I didn’t expect much to happen on the house. It’s out of my hands anyway. My worry was the auto-debit form. I left messages but never heard back (I was gone all day but gave out my cell phone). When I got home, I had a number of errands to run and a client to meet with. (One the errands was cool: I remembered I had an electronic range key from the local driving range that still had money credited to it and so I was able to turn it in and get $50 credit at the pro shop. I bought a pair of golf shoes which I’d been wanting but never gotten. I’m glad I remembered because that range key wouldn’t have done me much good in Oregon!) Late in the evening (after meeting with the client) I got home to receive a call from the mortgage lady who told me my answering machine hadn’t picked up all day. I’d wondered why I hadn’t received any messages! Apparently the cordless phone’s battery had gone dead and that somehow caused the base’s answering machine to not function. Anyway, she said that the auto-debit form wasn’t a big deal — it wouldn’t slow up my loan — but I could fill it out in the morning and have it faxed to the underwriter. So that gives me more to do tomorrow in addition to getting ready for the moving sale on Saturday.
