The End
Last Thursday we officially no longer owned a house in Ohio. After much hassle and paperwork for their VA loan, the new owners signed papers on Wednesday and they were filed on Thursday. It all became real when the money showed up in our bank account that afternoon.
With this, our lives at 247 E Mohawk Drive are in the past, 100% over, the end. It’s a bit sad, but also very exciting. We certainly loved our little house and miss it a little. That being said, we’re settling in quite nicely in Maine and starting to put down roots here.
It feels really good to officially close this chapter of our lives and to finally be able to start focusing on the new chapters ahead. With this final piece of the puzzle in place we have much less on our minds. We’ve cancelled insurance, utilities, and it’s nice to know we now only have bills for one residence.
Breathe a deep sigh of relief with Mr Chiots and I…..

Congratulations!
And thank you for that last round of lovely photos of that garden.
Seeing those plump peonies ready to pop open brought a smile to my face!
Working with seeds and plans is very nice this time of year, but nothing matches the joys of the garden in May or June for me.
Tulips and peonies, yum!

Good for you! It’s nice when things are finalized.
A home is where the heart is, a house is just a building!
You’ve taken your home with you!
Wishing you every happiness in your new abode.

Yay :) I’m just putting a property on the market here, keeping my fingers crossed for a good price & a quick sale. Paying bills for 2 properties is not fun.
