One Week Left
Ok, folks this is amazing to me. Of course I have never sold a house before but I personally thing the time I have been trying to sell this one house is stupid. I keep hearing from other people and realtors that a house in good shape should sell fairly quickly, like in less than a month. The journey on this house has been 10 months SO FAR. The contract I have with the realtor now ends on Valentines day. Then there is the decision of what to do next. Seriously, there are good comments from realtors who have shown the house, but people always seem to find ONE thing that just won't do. Not a 2 car garage, not enough parking, not enough room (that one came from a couple with a 2 year old and a 10 day old baby - WHAT?!!). So, I am at a loss, as my realtor seems to be as well. Alan and I both are very tired of the whole process.
In other news....there is none. And that isn't a bad thing. Just doing the routine, and kind of hoping it will change soon. I work pretty much 6 days a week to keep up with both mortgages and I am tired of doing it. I want to be home with my family. But isn't that the plight of almost all moms? The get wore out from being home and under demand and then if they work outside the home they get wore out from having to go to work every day and under all the demand and they miss their family. Well, some of them do anyway.
I find it very interesting how second class a stay at home mom is. Damn hard work if you ask me. There is a lot to do with no reward. I also find it interesting that a lot of moms seek sympathy for being so tired all the time. There was a user name on another site that was "tiredmomof7". Why put that out there other than to seek sympathy for your situation, believe me I am empathetic. Anyway, that was just sitting there in my head and I thought I would put it out there.
