Remind me...

Why I'm buying a house? If it's because I want to have a stroke, then the plan is working. Nothing new under the sun, I know - people go through this all the time - but the stress! Oy!

We found out on Monday that we weren't going to be able to close on Friday because the attorney for the other side is recovering from a serious heart attack (surprise, surprise), only works until noon each day and is booked for Friday. We switched it to tomorrow morning, and now the mortgage company is coming back with all of these requests for information that they said they didn't need earlier on. So now there's a good chance we won't close tomorrow, but will have to wait until Monday. Which really bunges things up because we have the truck reserved for Monday and people lined up to help us move, and Mary is coming from RI with my mother's bedroom set on Saturday, and the seller is inclined to not let us in before the closing since their original deal fell through. If that's the case, we will probably have to hire movers since there will be no one to help us during the week.

Breathe, gina, breathe.
