It's wet. Real wet, as in the flash flood warning wet. Looks like this:
The blue is the swimming pool cover, about to float off the pool.
The cats went outside a few times, but getting water in their ears is not fun, so they settled down to a day inside.
Sister got some very bad news. Her home buyer bailed at the literal last second, which means Sister can't buy her new house. Turns out the buyer won't know until next week if she'll still have a job, so she panicked. After a bunch of back and forth, the buyer asked Sister if the closing can move to 14 Apr. Sister said yes, IF buyer pays more in non-refundable earnest money, then if she bails again, Sister might sue for breach of contract. The buyer thought she could engage a COVID-19 provision to get out of the contract without losing ernest money, but she jumped too early and does not qualify. Meanwhile, the folks selling their house to Sister offered to loan Sister the money so they can still close on time. She's been the only offer on that house and it's been on the market a long, long time, so they are very motivated to sell it to her. Depending on what Sister hears from her buyer today, she may be visiting a real estate attorney on Monday.
Meanwhile, between the state and the city, Mom may not get access to her stuff until late April or sometime in May. When we do get access to her apartment, we'll move her out and put her stuff into storage until Sister gets a new house (hopefully the one under contract). Mom can live in the Fifth Wheel until then, which will be infinitely cheaper than paying the outrageous prices at that complex.
Spousal Unit is frying onions. Must be near suppertime. Later, y'all.
