We close on this house Sept 10th, still no word from the bank on the new house. We'll probably have to store everything and stay with my Mom for a while. If the other one closes within a couple of weeks of this one then the buyers offered to allow us to do a rent back, that would be the best case scenario as it would only take one move. I am not holding my breath though. I am gradually packing, tackling the garden too, lots of dividing and taking cuttings.
