I'm a bit freaked out!

So, we sold our house on Saturday, toured 11 homes on Sunday, put a bid in on one that night and they finally accepted our third offer lastnight. Scheduled home inspection. Only downfall is we will have to stay with my Aunt for about 2 weeks due to different closing dates. That's all OK though. Great house, more room, same school district for DS's. Very Happy!!!

Congrats!!! I'm so happy for you....and I too know all about changing schools...I hated it. My daughter is in the 11th grade and only had to change schools once, after that I said never again. But I really like where I live too.

Please don't shift your home away otherwise your childs study would be effected. If possible than you should shift near by their school or college.

I was able to find a perfect house in the same school district. That was my number one requirement; same school district. I changed schools so many tiems growing up and never felt like I was caught up with the other students. I refused to do that to my kids. They are very relieved as well. Thank you everyone for your good thoughts and congratulations. I'm so excited to be able to spend Christmas in our new place and have all the family over and not be so cramped.

Happy to hear your good news. You like to take things nice and slow right? Sheesh I would have to stay up 24 hours a day to find a house and sell the old one that fast. You should be finished packing by tomorrow. Happy for your kids too.

Actually, you have plenty of time to pack. When we moved to our current place, we found out that we got it on a Monday... we moved in on Friday! Make sure to have plenty of boxes (check your local grocer's and copy centers, they have great copy paper boxes) and newspapers for wrapping breakables.

I too, have moved many times in my life, I think it's up to 29 and I'm 43. You made me smile when you said the same school district was #1 priority...
