I walked to Chase Bank to meet with Lauren Cavanagh, my investment guru. I told her I wanted to send in the application to La Costa Glen but needed some help with my financial disclosures. She tigered right in and after nearly two hours of hard work we had the application ready to go. I wrote the necessary check, she copied everything, then sent it off Federal Express for me. Now THAT is service. Thank you, J.P. Morgan! Thank you, Lauren.
So I have done it! I have sent in a fully refundable deposit and a non-refundable processing fee to establish my serious intent to purchase a place at La Costa. Now I am a member of the Future Resident's Club which entitles me to all kinds of good things. Invitations to special events, opportunities to participate in resident activities, free overnight stays at a guest suite, and more. I am excited.
People are asking will I sell the Manhattan Beach house. Not until I know I like it there. I have 90 days with full refund, so the question is, do I rent or sell after that? Property values are going up fast in Manhattan Beach. To be decided. I will keep the Mammoth condo.
Heather is back after a stint with Daisy's kids. She did major work on the garden and porch. Daisy is back from Texas. Andrew Mack is hard at work after a day off for the 4th. He went to a park in Carlsbad near LegoLand. Bri is enjoying being a Mom, and from the picture David is enjoying being a Dad. Jane is 'reconnecting' with childhood friends in Victoria. Wendy is working hard at the things she loves. She says no two days are the same. Trevor is clearing out his life time collections of THINGS. Very hard. Robyyn has a job, so cannot come to Mammoth on the 13th.
Love to you all, Val
Great update!
