Uh oh, moving must happen soon.

Well, looks like we need to move sooner than later. We've got 9 months...

Yep. Expecting (but not announcing publicly yet, ok, no more public than this). 

Considering my history, I'm trying to not get all excited yet, but I can't really help it either. I figure if something goes wrong, I'll update this anyway. 

But back to moving, because 3 kids under 3 with street parking in Southie is not going to happen (at least I hope not!) We have problems. The biggest problem? A possible structural flaw in our foundation. Next problem, a lot of houses have just gone on the market in our neighborhood, and while all of them are smaller, they're in better shape. We need to be able to sell quickly... Looks like we may have $100,000 LESS in equity than we thought we had. 

Meanwhile all the houses that are halfway decent are selling fast. We are trying to decide if we go to Glens Falls so we are near Mom (and $ stretches a little further) or stay put for the amazing French immersion program and German school options in the area. Depending on the day and hour I'm convinced that I have the decision made one way or the other. 

We were on this path beforehand, but now there's an urgency to the whole thing. Yikes but this is crazy, unexpected news.
