Well, besides work for Shirts of Bamboo, the errand of the day was signing papers at with Ileen at Alpine Mortgage, arranging for the appraisal and last minute bits of paper.

Looks like 10% down, 6.5% for 30 years — down from 6.75 last week, and not that much different from the 6.375% for 20% down. These are a little higher rates than a standard mortgage, but this one is assets based, rather than income based. It’s the perfect loan for self-employed people with assets.

The suitcase is out for the Hawai’i trip. Looks like everybody is headed to Hawai’i this January. Whitewater will meet us in Kona — he’s there for three weeks. RiverSong and GE will be in Honolulu when we return from the cruise early Saturday morning but don’t fly out until 9pm. Hopefully they will have a car.

Tonight is a quiet dinner in — just me, the computer, and the TV. Well, that and starting to pack. Will do laundry tomorrow since I’ll stay at Wonderful’s tomorrow night since the flight is a O Butt Early on Saturday morning.
