In limbo

We made an offer on another townhouse in the same complex that we are in. Since it's another pre-foreclosure, it's going to take a while, which is actually good for us not only because we need to get out of our busy season first, but because we just moved and I'm really not in the mood to move again. As a matter of fact, we aren't really finished moving yet. I'm still doing it all by myself, which means that about 1/2 a truckload gets moved per day.

Our tentative closing date on the townhouse is not until November. So I have about 5 months to stress about moving........again. :(

We also got a call from the other realtor we were dealing with. The homeowners of the other house we made the offer on have figured out a way they might be able to make it work. The reason our offer was not accepted is because the second mortgage company was going to get nothing, and they said "no way". I have no idea how the homeowners think they're going to get around that, but obviously they haven't had any better offers and are desperate to sell the house.

So, we still have no idea where we are going to be living by the end of the year. I'm just trying not to think about it.

Although I love where we live now, as it's on the water in a great neighborhood, and the townhouses are very big and very nice, I did find one thing I don't like. I don't like sharing a pool with other people. Not because the people aren't friendly. They are very friendly. It's me who's not friendly.

On the other hand, Captain Chaos met a kid his age at the pool the other day. He played with him for over an hour. He's obviously more friendly than I am.
