Closed!

Per Barry the Lawyer, "the closing is funded".  The money is being wired to her checking account even as I write this.  I will have Mom cancel all her utilities, homeowner's insurance, etc.

Closing on Tuesday!

We learned a couple of days ago that the buyer was going to be approved by the Board, and the approval apparently came through today.  Lee did a yeoman's job of getting all the documents signed and overnighted to Florida, and  Barry the Lawyer says they are likely to close the sale tomorrow, Tuesday, August 27.

Hooray!

Still no Board approval

Closing is scheduled for Tuesday, but we still do not have Board approval of the buyer.  Barbara says everything is in order.  The lawyer suggested to me it may be because the Buyer is Haitian, but of course he can't prove it. 

If this doesn't happen, we go back on the market next week. 

I let Mom know earlier.

Laundry Labels, ETC

A lot was accomplished this weekend at Mom's.

All the cartons were unpacked with the exception of the photos, photo albums. These are stacked in the front closet.  Eric - there are a bunch of empty cartons stacked by the door for Alex. If he doesn't want/need them, please let Mom know and she'll get the maintenance guys take them away. Also for Eric - the folding chairs are there for the taking.

Lee and I made a CVS/Bed Bath & Beyond run and got a bunch of things to help settle Mom in (soap dish, toothbrush holder, hamper).  I'm sure she will need more things besides furniture which we will get to as she asks.

I have ordered name tags for Mom's clothes that are peel and stick. It will take awhile before they get to her but she has the Sharpie to use until then.

See you all soon - and some sooner than that.

car & movers

car arrived & movers comfirmed friday delievery

they will call thursday with a time so I can meet them

I checked with Atria they need no info on movers and will probably let them come thru front door based on where Mom's apartment is

all good

Telephone

The telephone arrived and has been hooked up.   Mom has phones everywhere.  Because they are ringing in each room, she asked me to shut off the ring amplifier.  It is still connected but is turned off.

By the way, Mom lost her reading glasses (in her bed).  I couldn't find them anywhere.  Whoever visits should look.

Dining room, Internet and phone

Mom isn't satisfied with her dining table companions, so Shelley spoke to Eileen who will in turn talk to Larissa when she's in tomorrow.  Shelley will follow up as well.  

For those who might care, Mom now has a wifi access point.  The password is AbbeyRoad. The network name will be obvious when you're here.  

Her LOUD ringer box is hooked up.  

Since the phone service is only accessible from the cable box, she needs a new cordless system with multiple extensions.   I ordered a V-Tech unit on Amazon which will arrive Saturday: four handsets and an answering machine for $65.  Such a bargain!
