Kind of overwhelmed I guess..

Just venting..hubby is worse off than me, he had shoulder surgery in april and is in pain. we always say we are going to hire movers...never do it. next time when we settle in for good, this is getting ridiculous!

You and Carl need to take a break! Shoegal4 was right take a break, treat yourself! As my mom used to say (and darn it she was right) "It will be there waiting for you." if you don't you will get so tired that you won't feel like doing it at all. You do have a couple of extra days there right? Please don't you guys push yourselves so hard.
When you get to Washington you will be able to put this all behind you. I am just as excited as you to hear you say "We are on our way I will talk to you all when we get to our home in Washington!"

Dogmom, I really feel for you... you must be so "done" with all of this... you have had a long ordeal... best wishes to you...
Good luck on your showing! You are really getting a lot of traffic! Sending a prayer your way!

Thanks Jimmy!

Put up the mem’ ries,
pack up the clutter,
All of those knickknacks covered with dust.
Cleaning my kitchen, and then the back den,
See that sign--
It’s beginnin' to fade.

Wasted away again in come on buy’er ville,
Searchin' for my packed shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's an agent to blame,
But I know it's nobody's fault.

Don't know the reason,
there is no pleasing.
With something to show, but no buyers to see.
But it's a real beauty,
A lived in cutie, why they don’t come,
I haven't a clue.

Wasted away again in come on buy’er ville,
Searchin' for my packed shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's a agent to blame,
Now I think,-- hell it’s just not my fault.

I blew out my dust rag,
Picked some dog poop;
Lock my door , I had to leave for a while.
But there's booze for the blender,
If I can just find it,
Make me some concoction that helps me hang on.

Wasted away again in come on buy’er ville,
Searchin' for my packed shaker of salt.
Some people claim that there's an agent to blame,
But I know, it's nobody’s fault.
Yes, and some people claim that there's an agent to blame, And I know it's somebody’s fault???

LOL!!! Crazyma you have out done yourself!!! I love it!!!



I also wanted to say I am glad you all enjoyed the "puppies"!

We are not getting any feedback at all! Isn't that strange?

Thanks to all of you for your good wishes... and the same to all of you who are selling!

Out the door pretty soon as the showing is in a half hour. Going to see my daughter and my new granddaughter!!!!

Crazyma... you are my hero!

We are getting a lot of traffic. We do have some really great pics on the internet, so I think that is helping...

It's hardly your fault that the Realtor couldn't read a map! It is great you are on the short list though! Fingers crossed *+*+*+*+* dust and a prayer your way!

To all you packers..........definately take a break! I'm sure it seems overwhelming, but I think when you start to see the end to your ordeal you will regain a lot of energy and be going full steam. I only wish that I was lucky enough to be packing permanently right now! I'm wondering if we just shouldn't unpack our stuff and forget the whole effing thing. Totally disgusted.

Just a very slight hijack........For those of you who remember my health problems from a week or so ago, went back to the doc's yesterday and she said that the lyme test came back negative (although I wonder about that because it is a known fact that there are a lot of false negatives with that test), but there were a few things on the other bloodwork that were odd. Increased sed rate (told her that I have had that since I was in college and they have said it was probably allergies), slight anemia (doing another work up to see if it iron deficiency or perhaps B12 deficiency since I am past menopause by several years). But she is still concerned about the increased joint pain and fatigue, so is doing a workup for rheumatoid arthritis (I am already being treated for osteoarthritis) and lupus. She is convinced that there is some kind of autoimmune thing going on...........I'm desperately hoping that she is wrong, though. She wanted to know if I was depressed. Told her not clinically, but with selling the house there is a lot of stress not only with the actual selling and being totally disgusted with the lack thereof, but alot between me and hubby lately as well. We seem to have things going wrong continually lately around here. $225 to fix the broken power window in the van......broken cable, but Chrysler forces them to replace the entire lift unit! And we were told this is not an uncommon thing. Oh well.......anyway, just wanted to update on what was going on with me.

Now back to our originally scheduled poems!

I am glad to hear you don't have Lyme disease but I am concerned about the other. The one thing is that stress can cause a lot of things. It seems you are really getting hit with a lot of things right now on top of the stress of selling. If you can get out for a while and treat yourself to dinner, a movie, something that you would enjoy. You deserve a break. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
