grigg family update

We are incredibly busy right now. Our big house had 3 microsoft people renting it from us, and they all decided to move out the end of this month. We'd like to move back, but that led to a big debate on whether we could afford it. My contract with microsoft is up at the end of this month, so it's hard to take on extra expenses for housing when your income is going down. Therefore, yesterday I spent running around in the heat, and a perfectly awful vehicle, getting things together to rent just half the house. We will still move back, only to half of the house. Needless to say I didn't get to work until 7pm which is an all time late show-up from me.

The good news is the upstairs is rented, so that's all over with in one day. We will be sharing with one of the teachers at the kid's preschool, so that just seems like a great match. Thank you Craig for building craigslist, this was the fastest response I have ever gotten, even from local newspaper ads. Anyone wanting to look at pictures of the place can look at this website. Now we can have big parties and return the favor for everyone who has entertained us over the past 3 years we've been living in tiny spaces!

wow, what a gorgeous place!

Yes, but this is before 3 years of being a bachelor pad. Let's see if I can summon the housework skills to get it back...

thanks for the kind words!

How much does a place like that rent for?

We rented the upstairs for 1100, the whole house was for 2600
