After a beautiful 75 degree day, it is cold and rainy. That's okay, being that it IS spring and all, and as long as the precipitation is not of the frozen kind, I can handle it.
You people in the North, getting hit with another winter snow, bless you. Here in Virginia, after 2 snows, we are all so ready for spring, we get cranky, very cranky. Maybe that's just me.
This weekend will be a calm before a few upcoming weeks of pure crazy. Yes, it is self imposed crazy, but still, let me explain.
Last March, we spotted this AMAZING house. It was a random thing. We saw it and LOVED it immediately. Upon adding our 6th family member in 2013, we had exceeded the capacity in our home. We needed to breathe, physically, spiritually, emotionally. We began weighing our options and the possibility of buying this home. It seemed hopeless.
Our sweet realtor, bless her heart, went back and forth with us, "Yes or no?" Each time, it was clearly no. Another buyer was interested, then it fell through, over and over. We thought we lost the house, then it was available again. We felt like it was our house. We could just sense God doing something, but we had to wait. We were in limbo. I don't like playing limbo.
All of a sudden, I can't really explain it, except to say, that God just lined everything up. All of the logistics started falling into place AND we didn't have to sell our current home. We were in the middle of a kitchen remodel (6 people, no kitchen, no fun) and all of a sudden, we moved.
That was November. It is time to sell the other house. Enter, self imposed crazy. Next week we are tackling the long list of to-dos on a house we haven't lived in for 4 months in order to get a FOR SALE sign in the front yard, as soon as possible. I can already hear our neighbors and realtor rejoicing.
So, if you know of anyone in the market for a CUTE 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath cape cod, with a brand spankin' new kitchen, send them my way, please. Our realtor would really love it.
