So, that is what I am feeling right now. I am stressing out. At times I am fine, and I know that everything is going to work out, and then there are these other times, like today, where I am just bawling at the drop of a pin...
Grrr...maybe moving and selling a house while in the last 7 weeks of pregnancy are not the best things to be doing. This is also a hard time pregnancy wise, cause it is when our 3'rd child died. I was 32 weeks along, and that is what I am now. Usually we go away and 'hide'...well, not really hide, just go away and we don't think about anything else. But, we can't so that this time. Pete has a job and we are in this process of selling and buying a house.
I think the combination of it all is really affecting me and I just need to 'hide' somewhere...
Oh well, we have some painters coming in this afternoon to give us a quote on painting the house top to bottom. We have been told that if it is professionally painted we will get a HUGE chunk back on what we spend...so, that is what I have spent the morning doing.
Now, finding painters who are available immediately and can have the job done by the end of the weekend at the latest, is not the easiest thing to find. So, that is why I have been in tears today...silly? Yup...but, yeah, I am emotional...
I am worried that the house will not sell and I really believe that the other house is meant for us. We found out yesterday that the next door neighbour is a friend that I have known for many years...made it seem even more that the house is meant for us. I just don't want to be disappointed...
We have been doing everything possible to make the house look better...a light fixture here, an extra screw to hold a drawer on properly there...anything that will help. We have also been out of the house for the last 3 nights because people have been walking through.
There have been 7 so far, 1 on Sunday, 2 on Monday and 4 last night. We haven't had a nice sit down dinner since Sunday and I am tired of fast food...I need to figure out what I can make that can transport elsewhere...we spent the night at the park with Pooky last night, and she just had a blast. I am not sure where we will head tonight or tomorrow if there are more showings, maybe we will just head to my parents house for a bit...
Oh well, there's my day...
I can relate to the crying at the drop of a pin - that's been me, lately. You do have a lot going on, but 7 walk throughs for the house so far? I think that's a very good sign. Still, no matter how many visit, it only takes one buyer to sell a house. I hope it sells. And soon!
