Notes from my week.
- Progress continued on selling our house. We left the kids with the grandparents in Kansas City while photos were taken on Tuesday, and the house was listed on Thursday.
- We have a bit of inactive termite damage on our house that we knew was treated before we bought the house. Unfortunately, that documentation was lost in The Great Paper Purge of 2020, so it looks like we will need to do another treatment before selling.
- We left to return to Kansas City for the weekend while potential buyers were looking at the house. It was a nice break from things, and we were able to take the kids to a big pool/water park.
