Houma home sold

Unless something unforeseen occurs between now and final sale, which, at this moment, appears to be highly unlikely, we have sold our home in Houma.  The home will have a new owner on April 8.  We asked for a two-week extension on the time we need to vacate the home, which the new owner has agreed to.  This gives us a little extra breathing room on the other side.  Our new home in Tracy City, Tennessee has been "nearly finished" since Labor Day last year, and is still not quite ready to be occupied.  The home itself has been finished for some time, but the holdup has been the building of the carport and a small storage building inside the carport.  We are given to understand that the carport is essentially finished, and it's the storage building that awaits completion.  Once completed, we then have to wait an additional 10 days before we are allowed to occupy our new home, or put a single item inside of it.  Once we move our belongings to the new home, Judy will move.  I will need to stay a little longer, since I am obligated to give a minimum of three months notice to the USDA before retiring.  We are looking forward to turning the page to a new chapter in our lives.
