Incredibly Difficult.....Or Maybe I'm Just a Baby
| The inspector came by today to do the inspection on the house for the new buyers. He was nice enough and didn't act too incredibly frustrated that I didn't follow the subtle advice given to me by our realtor and was here waiting for him. Sorry, I have issues with the thought of people wandering through our home unattended for 4-5 hours. I introduced myself and told him that I would play the invisible woman and stay out of his way. I did....as I was peaking around corners and through window blinds trying to figure out what he was thinking and taking so many pictures of! Then came the new buyer. I really, really suck at 'being out of the loop.' I was completely alarmed when a uniformed man popped out into the back yard exlaiming, "I know you!" Go figure that it would be someone we know. One of Kolby's classmates parents even! He seemed super excited about getting into the house though. Apparently they have been waiting for 9 months for this house to go on the market. Well, not THIS house necessarily, but one exactly like it anyway! He even asked if they could start bringing over paint. I thought, "PAINT???? What in the hell are you thinking? These walls are perfect!" *shrugs* I suppose it isn't my house anymore, right? Anywho, he's super nice and so is his lovely wife. And their daughter is an absolute doll. I'm certain they will just love living in our home. *pukes, barfs, gags* No seriously, it is apparently everything and more that they have been looking so hard for and that makes me feel a little better. Clearly though, as I'm sure you are guessing based on this blog, I'm not doing so hot with all of this. One minute I'm okay with it. The next, there's nothing in the entire world that I want to happen less than moving out of this house. I've said for months that this was the way it would go down. That it would sell immediately and we would be gone from our home before Jeff even leaves. And, it did. So, I'm not so sure why I'm so shocked and upset about it all. I turned in a rental application today for another house in our neighborhood.I also faxed in a request for on base housing. We shall see what pans out for us. Hopefully something will or we may very well be moving into my mom's spare bedroom! Muwahahaha. Hmmm...free rent, might not be a bad idea after all! Just kidding mom! Anywho, it's almost time to get ready for Kolby's martial arts and Zoe's girl scout meetings, so we are off to do that now. Huge hugs and kisses to everyone! |
