Hope House
Apr. 26th, 2008 12:21 amFannie Mae has decided that even though we had been given an counter offer to my last offer, and even though I accepted that offer and the contract was verbally ratified, they are selling the house to someone else.
To say I am upset is putting it mildly. I've tried to spend the evening doing things to distract myself, making a couple of pairs of earrings, reading, playing with the cats. House hunting on my own is dangerous because once I find a house and fall in love with it, I start making plans, and I no longer have someone with common sense to plan with who can keep reminding me that they are just air castles.
I guess we will start the process again soon. Hopefully next week I'll hear back from the financing company and have a better idea of what I can realistically afford. Maybe I'll even hear back from my parents about the Glitter House and what it would cost to stay here.
I need to send an informative email to a number of people, including my parents, letting them know that the offer fell through.
I wish I could turn myself off for an hour or two.
