A Watched Phone Never Boils

I've waited.
so oh oh patiently (Yeah, the thing I do NOT excel at).

Apparently that's the wrong way to do it.

I'm just going to start packing and see what happens.

What do you mean, "What the heck are you talking about?"
Remember that great house we fell in love with?

Remember how we really gave it some thought and decided we couldn't swing it because the timing was wrong? And then the timing became right... and then we were told the house would be ours (to rent) when it became available but they weren't sure of the date it would be available... have I lost you here?

Then remember how my husband received a plane ticket to visit places of the Bible?

lots of faceless people work there. I hope it's not catching!

You don't, huh? Well, we called the estate agent and we explained my husband's wandering ways and let her know that IF the house would be available by ___ time it would really be better otherwise I'd be doing the move alone. She said she'd talk to the home owner and get back to us either way.
It's been 10 days. Not that I'm counting.

  1. Oh, and waiting is really the worst part of it all. Yuck! I hope you get the fabulous house, and everything happens before Hubby gets deployed.

  5. If I think really hard about your phone call, do you think it would work?? Because if you thought it'd help, I'd think til my brain hurt (which, let's face it, lately wouldn't be too long, but still).

    Good luck!

  6. I wonder if packing when waiting on the Realtor is like lighting a cigarette when waiting on the waitress? (I quit smoking FOREVER ago), just Sayin. Good Luck!

    Blessings, Whitney

  8. yep I remember every little bitty detail and it was the kitchen that just slayed me. Keep up thinking positively. You can move in there by yourself. Heck I could move into that house by myself with a VW bug. Where there is a will there is a way!

  10. You can't wait for life to come to you. Go get it! Make that call! Carpe Diem!

    Like I would do that.

    Anyway, I really hope it all works out for you. AND I really hope that blurry face issue clears itself up -- do they sell an ointment for that?

    ps Hey look, I managed to comment under my own account this time!

  11. I can't believe you have waited that long, I would've called back by now for sure.

  12. Oh call! Callcallcallcallcallcall! It's what I'd do! And I'd ruin everything in the doing of it. Don't call. But I want you to call!

  13. Don't wait . . . savor. Enjoy all the delicious dreams and details running through your mind. (That's what I'm doing . . . dreaming of a visit to see you in that grand manor house.)

  14. Omigosh! That house would be so perfect for your crew. I thought so before & I still think so. I'm keeping my fingers crossed & saying prayers that she calls you back with good news.

    By the way, if you get that house I swear I'm coming over there to help you move the clan. I'm not kidding. Well, maybe not kidding. Hehehe...

    Frankly, I'd call too but I don't know the ways of the British, but you probably do. I really want you all to have this house!

  15. Don't you just hate not being able to make firm plans? I do.
    Yeah, I'd probably just start packing too, that's when you'll get a call, either way. I just hope it's the way you want it to go. :o)

  19. Gone on, give the agent another ring. They have probably forgotten about you.

    ReplyDelete
  20. OOOooo I'm counting with ya... Fingers crossed and all!!!

  21. I hope you get some good news soon. It must be so hard to be on pin and needles for so many days in a row!
