Why stop at just a dash of frustration?


(an older pic, before the sod was laid)

So, our loan officer thinks everything will be fine. But, we are 5 (well, 4 and a half) days from closing, and our loan is up in the air. I can tell you I will be on the phone tomorrow, getting some straight answers.

I'd like to think it will be ok. But I'm just so frustrated, I can't see beyond what I'm feeling now.

:::sigh::: Hopefully I can post some good news tomorrow. I'm getting so anxious to be in a house of my own!

Add just a dash of frustration....

There are less than two weeks left until we are supposed to be in our house. It’s getting exciting. We have bought our refrigerator, couch, recliner, and dinette set. Things seem to be shaping up nicely.

It was a little bit aggravating today however, when after buying our living room and dinette set and getting a U-Haul from my brother in law, we found out that we have to go to a completely different location to pick them up. We were told to pick them up preferably within 7 days and they would give us a couple extra, but not much more. That information was not disclosed to us at the time of sale. But, since the store was having a sale on all the items, and if we paid in full today we were also given an additional 40% off, we didn’t immediately ask for a refund. So tomorrow (well really today) or tomorrow (Saturday) I’m going to try to get the U-Haul again and get that stuff picked up.
