SO BUMMED

First off - I'm so amazingly bummed out. We lost the house we had been looking at. Our realtor was supposed to call if any other serious offers went on, and we found out today while he was out of town for a few days the other realtor in the office went ahead and sold it without telling him first. Of course right after we get that we get the phone call saying we've been pre-approved for the loan and to go ahead and make the offer. I can't even tell you how upset I am! We have been working for 2 weeks straight with measurements, estimates, kitchen layouts, bathroom layouts, meeting with the plumber and the carpenter, losing sleep...all for nothing.

Had another appointment today and not much change cervix-wise, but baby has definitely dropped and is already entering the birth canal. So my doctor said he's no longer worried about whether or not the baby will fit because he's already so low. He thinks about 2-3 weeks! Very exciting...

And then I think about the house again and get all upset. I trust God's plan but this one stings quite a bit. This house had the old-house charm and character we wanted - huge windows and baseboards and the original hardwood floors. Oh I'm just so sad!!!!! We are officially moving to a place and have no where to live and there are no available apartments right now! WHAT exactly is God doing right now??!?!?

TTFN. :( :( :( :(

So sorry to hear about the house you guys. But when I look at the big picture I smile with anticipation. You can trust God's plan, I did for 25 years farming. It's now always easy but what an adventure. Love to you all. Dad

Your dad is so right, Jess and Jer. Think of how long this house has not been sold and just at the moment you are ready to go for it, the house sells and then you get the info about the loan. Yes, it disappoints greatly. Feel that pain and then look to see what else He has out there for you.
Love you all D&D
