Whew!!!

Okay - after the depressing news of yesterday's radon screening, we got up this morning only looking forward (well, except for me now obsessing what years of living here with such high radon levels have done to our health!).  I called one of the places that the realtor recommended.  He gave us two options for mitigating the radon - an internal and an external fix.  It will cost about $1000 and they are coming Tuesday morning to do it.  It's a guaranteed fix - they will keep working until the levels are where they are supposed to be.

Jim emailed Doug and has been very worried that we hadn't heard back from him.  Visions of torn up sales contracts flitting through our minds.  But around noon, he called as he was driving up from FL.  The realtor had called and told him - he apparently hadn't checked his emails.  He seemed fine with the fact that we would take care of the issue - no ripped contracts in sight.

In fact - he gave us some more good news - they aren't going to be able to move in until later than they thought - so he said we can have til the 5th of the month.  I told Jim that I'm still pressing like we have to be out, but it certainly gives us breathing room.  Plus it might allow us to make a trip to NY with apartment stuff and not have to rent another storage unit here like we were planning.

So - great news!  Whew!
