Well, so let's see we have had a case of strep throat with Abi and breathing problems resulting in an ER visit and a lengthy visit the following day at the doctor's office with Eli. Then since then everything had been pretty even keel. Must admit, almost dull.
Then this past Thursday Jeff got a call from our realtor that we might be getting an offer on the house. Music to my ears! The other realtor/couple wanted to make sure we had arrangements made on how we were going to pay the deficit to the bank in order to close out the loan before they made an offer. We informed them that, yes, we had that all arranged. We waited with baited breath to see what would happen. We waited through Friday, and Saturday, and Sunday, and yes it is Monday and still nothing has happened. At this point we assume no contract will now come from this situation. What a royal disappointment! I thought we were seeing a light at the end of this tunnel, but I guess it was just a reflector on a dead end.
In church on Sunday, Pastor Jamaal spoke on our ability and indeed responsibility to be thankful in ALL circumstances, but I must admit ... it is SO hard! It feels like we are getting nowhere and boy that trip to nowhere is sure taking a LONG time. By my estimations the house really needs to be under contract by January in order for us to avoid double payments on mortgages.
I keep having to remind myself that even if double mortgages happens, we are still going to be okay. It won't break us financially or anything. We will be able to make those double payments. But I sure hope that God brings that buyer with that contract making that all unnecessary.
