(no subject)
so, as i think i've mentioned (but maybe i didn't, i can't keep track anymore), the formal sale of the house had to be delayed b/c our mortgage broker didn't have some crucial paperwork, and we didn't hear about it until last thursday. danny's uncles were either hospitalized or traveling, so we couldn't get the papers until (hopefully pray god) today - thankfully we got ahold of becky before she left for a week-long trip.
so, the house is empty and waiting for us, which is killing me stress-wise. i want to badly to finalize this process, and even though the pressure is on us to get this paperwork, it's out of our hands until danny's relatives get back to us. argh!
we did the final walkthrough yesterday, making sure the house was all in order. it felt different, empty, but not so different that it seemed like a whole different house. i was very pleased to find there was a peach tree and a meyer lemon tree already planted - i was going to buy a meyer lemon tree! i am still planning to buy a fig tree, and a japanese maple for the front yard (for when we rip the bushes out).
we picked up some moving boxes, but we're not going to pack until the deed is recorded. not counting chickens before they hatch and all that.
overall, i'm just exhausted. the waiting is wearing me down. everything i do that's not work, just feels like a distraction, a way to manage time until the house is finalized. it's actually sucking a lot of joy out of every day activities!
hopefully, it will all be over this week. i don't see why it won't be.
also: we're moving the weekend of the 12th, not the 5th.
love kittie
