The Big Day and Following Three Weeks



So... this is a post purchase set of entries chronicaling (sp?) our and my throuhgts and reactions to the world of house buying and homeownership. This particular day in June, we put in the offer and were waiting for a response from the seller early that morning. What better way to try and calm the nerves than to go off to the lake and make sure things are right in the world and carrying on like its any other day, for many it was.
As we waited for the call we hear birds a squaking, fog a rolling in, and humidity curling and frizzling our hairs.
When the call comes in, out of my mouth flies a pseudo-Aquarian commentary- "Shit"!
I think that came from two competing sentimental corners- one being the excited corner and the other one being that scary change corner.
No worries- our offer was not taken and immediately challenged.
Hm... still not over.
