I am just so tired I cant think straight and I am down to my very last nerve. Totally frayed. I am going to bed in fact at 7:41 pm..cause I am done thinking. Right now...I am a little worried about not even having somewhere to rent...its that bad. We have money coming...but the timing is bad and its not available to us and not sure when......I am trying so hard to be patient and not scared. I know there are many in the same boat...but somehow it feels like we are the only ones having issues....then I think about the people who got this house foreclosed on...life is funny that way..someones trouble someone else's gain...weird. Seems like bad vibes...and energy...if you believe in that type of thing. I do need prayers. Sorry I am unloading on you....sometimes its too easy to do online...Peace to your heart and thanks for the prayers and good thoughts.

Searching for a house is ...I see tons of potential! Searching for a house is one of the most stressful things. You just have to trust and try not to be too freaked out if you have to rent for a while. We kept reminding ourselves last year that we didn't want to make a mistake with such a giant decision and purchase. We felt desperate too...nothing was popping up that we liked in our price range...and our house had sold. Then, we found our current house. And got it for a song...a foreclosure too. Really find out about the pet odors. Make sure that the new concrete will work. Summer tends to bring those smells out in force. The house looks like an old beauty, though. I love all the little details. Keep us posted and I'll be saying prayers!<br />Hugs,<br />CourtneySassafras and Winterberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15153493021653446039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4103203950203571285.post-27405629458258968372012-05-11T14:41:36.977-05:002012-05-11T14:41:36.977-05:00Thanks Cathy! Well...we saw it..and IT DOES NEED W...Thanks Cathy! Well...we saw it..and IT DOES NEED WORK...but we are putting in an offer...we did verbally to the bank (it is bank owned) and I am waiting to see if they verbally will accept...than we go from there in writing. We can move in when we need to...if all works out. Still not holding my breath...I even been down this road a couple times...and like I always say ..it aint over till the fat lady sings! There is pet destruction..in the whole house. Apparently they were letting the cats go down in the basement without a litter box...who would be so gross....?????<br />And also, the realtor believes the large dogs and cats were stuck in the house while they were actually gone for long periods of time!...thus the woodwork everywhere is chewed....who would be so cruel?? However, that said the bank is paying for a "smell remedy"...some sort of deionizing process that takes like a week but is guaranteed to work and they will return and do it again if the smell ever comes back. Tim also said that eventually we would lay plastic down and then reconcrete the floor of the basement which should work as well. People do not realize that cats can totally ruin a house with their stink. I am not a cat person but have one that I love immensely! I didnt mean to fall in love with her...but she grew on me and she never does anything wrong. She is a sensitive cat...to MY needs..and this is not normal from what I hear. She knows when ever I am sad and will not leave me...she has even licked my tears away...The problem will be too...if the smell is not gone from my cats nose...I am afraid she will spray etc...and be destructive. This is how bad the cat smell is...I am rambling on forever about it...and I am getting ahead of myself. The fat lady never sings for me it seems. :( Sorry this is so long!Laura Bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01180319276035871860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4103203950203571285.post-17141663499161569542012-05-11T14:15:16.083-05:002012-05-11T14:15:16.083-05:00LOVE the house!
