The biggest part of our move is almost done. TurtleSoft will be in Sayre PA for a while, while looking for a more permanent home.
We just deposited proceeds from sale of the Ithaca house, bought in 1994. I tried to enter a real estate sale into Goldenseal, and couldn’t find any specific way to do it. Sales probably need to get Equipment and Real Estate as options in the Conditions popup, with code to link to the account. For now it will just be a bank deposit with comments.
Goldenseal does have code for buying equipment and real estate, added in 2004. Either a user bought real estate then and called in with the question, or TurtleSoft bought some large equipment. Now it’s on the to-do list to handle the other end also.
Internet won’t be connected at temporary quarters until June 6. Programming will rev back up before that, with no distractions. It will be great to be back in the saddle again.
More properties have been coming onto the market lately, so we are hopeful about finding something soon. Now that there’s cash in the bank, it will be easier to make attractive offers.
Once it happens, the second half of the move will be easier. Part one was schlepping boxes and furniture down 3 flights of windy stairs, on a downtown street with scarce parking. Getting the sturdy old Steelcase desks past the winders was especially challenging. Part two will be large U-Hauls, ramps and hand trucks. Easy loading and unloading is a priority for the long-term home. No desire to repeat the past few months.
