As you know we have had our house up on the market for the past 168 days or so. (Not like anyone is counting) On Wednesday a couple made an offer on the house and, to be honest, it wasn't good. However this is the only offer we have had. After thinking about it and struggling over it and talking to our Realtor and having her talk to the offering Realtor, we decided to just take the offer. It's been rough paying to live in two places when you only live in one. (Paying about the same for each place too) Thus in the interest of halving our cost of living we decided to go with the offer.
A note to townhouse owners in our area for the future: if you get tired of having your townhouse on the market, dropping the price to "give away" levels isn't being kind to your neighbors.
We accepted the offer on Friday afternoon and the closing date is June 1st. At this point we're going to be glad to be rid of it. BTW: Anyone want to buy a great queen sized bed in Colorado Springs?
This comes at probably one of the most stressful weeks we have had in a long time. Today is the first day in ten days that we haven't made a trip to a hospital. (Averaging about three hours) Lisa's been trying to work, and the shots have been making me feel like I have had the flu for the past ten days, and as such I have been pretty worthless. We're hoping this weekend is a lot more relaxed. (Probably doing hospital visits every day next week as well)
Thanks all for the prayers and the support. On the good side of the shots they have been working, albeit a little slower than they might work on a "normal" person. My platelets are heading to up above 100. Please keep our house, health and hospital visits in your prayers. They are all adding to increased stress levels right now.
