well, the offer was put in on the house. I knew something was fishy when the seller said she couldn't see her agent for four days... and then pushed back the time she was suppose to meet him by four hours.
She's trying to work things out with her bank. She took out too many loans on the house (probably to fix it up) and now is massively in debt which is why it's a short sell. On one hand I fell really bad for her... on the other hand she took out two loans equally $300,000 in one year's time. I learned a long time ago that just because you qualify for a loan does not mean you can afford said loan. On one hand, I don't think the bank can help her out much with having only one income (she's a divorcee). On the other hand she's a single mother and there are a lot of laws protecting single mothers. So, I'm in limbo. It's kind of a good thing because I'd like to pay off my two credit cards before taking on a mortgage.
A friend at work has been suggesting some great books about reincarnation to me. I just finished Many souls many masters (i think that's the name) and The Journey of the Soul both being about patients that go under hypno therapy to have past life regressions and actually manage to make it in between lives to where souls discuss life lessons they've learned in their previous life and what new life they wish to select and what lessons will be taught therein. I've found it quite fascinating because in each book (published by two very different authors with very different writing styles that were copying the patient's words verbatim) the patients had the same higher vocabulary (whether this was typical vernacular for them or not) and reported very similar scenes. The second book had 29 case studies and the first one was one patient that the hypno therapist accidentally took into a past life regression and accidentally helped her achieve the state of lives in between lives. It was like she was the driver and he simply sat back and let her report what she was seeing.
It makes me wonder why I chose the life I did and what obstacles I set up for myself and what lessons I'm hoping to learn in this journey. It makes me wonder what souls agreed to help me in this life and what lessons they're helping me to teach.
In other, less spiritual news: I may be making a trip to New Orleans sometime this year. It has been rumored that Acid Bath might play a show in New Orleans but it's just whispers in the wind right now. If this does solidify into a more concrete show then I'll be stashing away some gas money and making a much belated trip to New Orleans. I wish I hadn't waited so long. I wish I had seen it before Katrina. Darn my old nervous tendencies. Never again. I need to grab on to opportunities more often, not waste them.
It is for that very reason I'm taking a day off of work and going down to Ft Lauderdale to see the first Team Cybergiest show. I fairly certain it'll be a typical show and I wouldn't be missing much if I stayed but if i do stay it pretty much promises to be the coolest thing ever. I wasn't going to go but I just keep thinking of things like my last chance to see New Orleans alive and well. Ft Lauderdale is no New Orleans but I've never seen it and this is exactly the kind of thing I need to stop letting pass me by. Even if it isn't the bee's knees, I'm sure it'll be a worthy adventure. I can't let the lure of stability keep me rooted to where I am.
Life is unfolding and I'm ready to grab a hold and go along for the ride. :)
