Today was to be closing day. In March when we signed a contract on a new-yet-to-be-built house, we chose this Friday to be closing. The builder has worked hard to ensure the house be completed so we could sign the papers today. Apparently it was not to be. Craziness and complications have plagued this last week before "closing."
The short story is, we HOPE to know something early next week. It doesn’t matter to the money types that I had all this weekend and next week planned out. That the parade of installers and movers and family coming to help and time off from work all arranged to my specifications. I know-deep down-that everything works together for the good of those who love the Lord. But today, it’s a bummer.
My challenges pale in comparison to others. Our friends who are struggling with their marriage, challenges professionally, and let’s not forget the bombings in London or anywhere else in the world.
Big "thank you"s to my favorite sister for coming to help, and hold my hand. For packing up my kitchen when I was sure I was finished. To my parents who continue to check in with me, daily during their get-away-from it all weekend. And for listening to me on the phone anytime I need to vent. I Love you more than I can say. To my fun brother-in-law who volunteered to take us to dinner tonight and make us laugh. I am so blessed to have you in my life!! Thank you Lord for the blessings of family.
Hey booger, sorry about the closing date. That seems to happen a lot and I hate that it pushed your date back. CRAP.
Miss you! Coming home tomorrow! See ya soon maybe!
