Not So Fast!

Wednesday, June 14, 2006

The deal on my house fell through this afternoon. The buyers were a flaky couple with shaky financing and I'm beyond crushed. I went on a four hour crying jag. I had started to truly disassemble the house over the weekend...packing away all the cutsies, moving bookshelves, tearing down the bed in the back bedroom, moving more boxes. I'd scheduled the movers, the phone/internet switch. Now...I have to stop everything and return to limbo land. Do I go ahead and move...or try to stay so the house looks somewhat lived in? 


It is most irritating that nearly the whole month of June was wasted on these flaky idiots. The weekend I was supposed to have the open house, but cancelled because of their contract, I had at least 6 other calls from agents wanting to show the house. Lost opportunities. Now it is almost July. People are on vacation. The house won't look as cute because a third of it is packed and gone. 


Did I mention I'm crushed? We worked so hard.
