We Sold Our House!

I LOVE my house...but I've HATED the 3 hour commute to work the last 2 1/2 years and Tim has HATED my complaining about my commute for the last 2 1/2 years.
The time has come for us to make a dramatic change in our life. We put our house on the market at the very end of July and it sold earlier this week.
Unfortunately, we have nowhere to move to. We have 27 days before we have to have this house, with 4 bedrooms and a 4 car garage that is packed to the gills, all packed up and moved out. At this point, we are looking for a house to purchase somewhere closer to the city, but that won't happen in time for us to move directly from our house in Puyallup to our new home. In the meantime, we are looking for a place to rent while we search for our next dream home. It's funny how that "dream" changes over time. Now that all the kids are grown and out of the house (mostly), we are thinking downsize and smaller mortgage. However, we're balancing that with wanting to live on the lake, which means WAY BIGGER mortgage. Hmmm...wonder how it will all play out......
