Rental Success ... and Other Stuff

Here's what I was afraid of jinxing yesterday:I'm protecting all the confidential info by showing just this tiny portion, but take my word for it that the whole thing is legally signed and binding --- AT LAST!! We finally have a tenant in our little rental house after several false starts and me, Mavis is Snoopy dancin'.

I think the DH was beginning to sweat it a bit too, especially after one of his clients (who is a long-time property manager) told him this is the worst rental market she has seen in her career.

It seems that those who had anything close to passable credit, and/or sufficient income, had moved into the ownership lane, leaving a pool of very few possibilities. However, we came away with a fellow who appears to be very well-qualified, and is quite likeable to boot! Wish us luck.

This morning I decided to again pick up the little cabled baby sweater, which only needs to be put together. Beau knows how much I hate this part, so he decided to "help."

No ... of course I didn't get it finished.
