Debbie Walks the Dogs.
All you can see of them is their footprints.

Joe, Debbie and I were up early and back to town to sign our offer for the house. Got in there a little too early to see the bank President (he had appointments), so had some coffee, walked the dogs, and then went to see James first. We got all the paperwork signed and initialed. When we got to the bank for our 11:30 appointment we hit another glitch in the financial stuff, oh goody, and then all of us sat on hold on the phone with the broken, no that's BROKER, for an hour I'm sure, while they consulted and told us we couldn't get our account as collateral this way either. Anyway I've never seen a more patient man than the bank president and how good he has been to help us. I'll just make the long story short and say we have to fill out more forms and come back tomorrow. And the next day. Anyway in any scenario if the seller accepts our offer or even if we have to counter offer, the deal should be completed by October 28. We should know by 4 p.m. tomorrow whether they accept our offer.

We ate lunch at the Mexican restaurant, and it was pretty good. I was hungry today. We stopped back by James office to add and initial a clause the bank wanted, then got some gas and came home. Stopped at Boulder to check out the newly remodeled store. It is pretty nice. Before they started remodeling they used to have Schwan's ice cream and a little fresh vegetables, but the lady working there told me no they have never had either of those. Like I was the new person. We got some Blue Bunny vanilla ice cream to bring home which was chosen from the 5 cartons they had there at the time - she said they had more flavors yesterday. Got home and tried to figure out the forms for a while. You know how mathematically challenged I am. More about all that when we really get some progress or something good actually happens. I'm going to ask lots of questions so we don't have any surprises later.

We put some lasagna in the oven for dinner and had garlic bread and salad with it. Tomorrow we off early again to go to Jackson for chemo. Debbie is going to take her car and she will be driving. She wants to shop up there for a few things while I'm my treatment.
