Money: Part II

Well, it took a bit of work, but we were able to squeeze in the loan and the contract signing all in one week. The trick was getting all of the money from the credit union to a checking account in five business days so that we could pay for the first part of the addition before beach week. That way, our contractor could work on getting the permits while we were enjoying ourselves on the beach. The money was not actually in Colleen’s account by Friday morning, but it did arrive by Friday afternoon (so technically there may have been an hour or two where Colleen had a $50,000 check written that she couldn’t actually cover, but we won’t dwell on that). Anyway, contract was signed, money was handed over, there’s no turning back now!
