Maybe Maybe Not

I thought when we decided not to look at short sales this time and go for conventional or foreclosures the process would go a lot faster but not so.  We had the inspection and while there were lots of little things including a cracked garbage disposal, I only have two items I am not willing to go for without further discussion.  One is no heat.  Now you may say why am I worried about no heat in Arizona - well they tell me it gets cold even though it is November and it was 89 today.  The other is broken roof tiles and poor flashing.  The inspector found indications of water running down the wall between the two units in the attic space.  The seller has been very slow to answer our concerns so we don't know if this sale will go through or not.

The silver lining to all this is we get to spend time with our grandchildren who are so cute.  Martin and Roxie are so very different from each other it is hard to believe they belong to the same family.  They both want to go on our walks with us and they have a good time even sitting side by side.  Martin also loves to go with us shopping and he is a very good shopper - doesn't ask for a thing and Grandma is having a hard time not breaking this wonderful attribute - normally she spoils the grand-kids by buying them things but this time she decided since he does not ask she is not going to put Heidi in the position of having him asking,  Of course with Zoey it is fun just to watch the changes taking place each day.
