Bits and Peices
The koi pond by the pool at the Villas at Sea Mountain Colony... Kau
I really want to buy a week of timeshare here. It borders on Punalu'u State beach so I could come back here and be here for a time. I would really like that, even knowing that it is possible would help me.
I dont know where to start. sort of like today's packing up a bit here a bit there bits and peices of life everywhere... First we have had a good, but not full price offer from some people from the LA area. We accepted. They hope to be through escrow by April 12 which coincidentally is the day we intend to return from Oahu to Hilo from our farewell tour of Hawaii. I feel ok about it but it was hard to sign those papers last night. Had I not been so overwelmingly exausted from the busiest day ever at the store it would have hurt more.
2/3rd of the inventory has been sold at the store. We still have some larger peices and two more weeks to sell them. I am going to slasher mode at this point. I smell the sucess of having 90 percent of it gone comming and that would be grand. Woody asked me how much money we have made. I cant tell him as we have not done a balancing of the accounts in so long that I just dont know. A lot... and that will make up for not getting full price on the house.
We have offers on a lot of other things as well. My head spins with all I have to do and unfortunatly Woody has the mind set that its my stuff that is in the house. He either threw it or gave it away, as far as his things go Its amazing. Hes the original haolie, a man with out a past or connections. He has sold some of the furniture in my office and the buyers what it. But I have collectible glasswear on some of the shelves and a huge amount of paperwork to do on the table and in the dresser that has been a storage unit for stationey and office supplies...I have to buy boxes, you cant just get them some place. and the packing stuff and figure out how to pack it then get it repacked by the movers...I gave up and concentrated on my extra closet and cleared it. I was disgusted by the mildew issues...threw a lot of stuff away...
Its very likely that we will close the store up to a week early as the inventory keeps going down and down. Woody will work his last week at the guard company this week as well. We will need all the time we can get to sort out things
Galveston came back up on the radar this week and we are looking at houses there. I may get to stay near the ocean after all. That is truly my desire if we can do it.
