Mixed Emotions

I'm starting to despair about the house offer, since it hasn't materialized yet. Perhaps I rejoiced too soon. These things take time, though, so there's still hope.

That's all I'm thinking about. The implications of actually getting an offer. It would free up a lot of money. Manny could move to Burlingame like he wants to and the girls would be gone every other weekend. Things would move forward. This is rather than backward, where I would move into the house and we would cobble together house payments for a little while longer. I was aware that when I found out there might be an offer my heart opened a bit with relief, rather than disappointment about the moving back plan.

I'm also spending some time getting nervous about my mock interview and resume workshop today. I have no idea what they'll ask or how I'll appear. I hope it has a sense of humor going for it. Yikes! Afterwards the students will probably go out to a restaurant and celebrate. Should be a very sociable day.

My husband is in the real estate field...offers take time. Sometimes there's back and forth, the agents yack at each other and yack with their respective owners...the fact that there is an offer is good news and it is totally normal for this to take time. There's a lot of detail involved in writing up one, actually.
