It has been a weird 3 weeks. I feel we've been living in the mist. I haven't followed any sort of normal schedule. Exercise has been hit or miss--eating has been terrible. I keep getting a stuffy nose. I've spent so much of my time worrying about our house selling/not selling; how we can be good landlords if we rent our home, how will I find a job, and a ton of other things out of my control. I also spent a ridiculous amount of time reading the Percy Jackson books (so good by the way--like Harry Potter meets Greek mythology). I tried getting back into exercising this week and started off well, but I missed yesterday--just not enough time in the day. Tuesday we got the call that these buyers were putting another offer on our home (in their minds a counter-offer even though they had bowed out and missed their time window to counteroffer).
These people, in my non-professional opinion are from another planet. They want us to pay for all sorts of things--the closing costs (which would be fine if they weren't trying to undercut us so much we bleed) and they want us to buy them a refrigerator. The refrigerator part boggles my mind. Our house has never had a fridge in it since they started looking at it. Aliens maybe have inhabited their body? They know they are offering us less than our payoff amount yet they keep wanting us to add stuff in. We finally said yes if they take the house as is. So basically if we have to repair anything to do w/radon or termites they don't get the refrigerator but otherwise we will get them one. I feel I'm in bizarro world. The market is so different from what it was both times we bought our homes. I'm not anxious to buy another home soon--I'll tell you that.
In good news--my parents came for a quick visit to celebrate my bday. We have indulged in some good eating. Now they're gone and C and I are sad.
