There's No Place Like Home

And yet, we're leaving ours! I can't believe it. I've been kind of down ever since we decided to accept the counter-counter-offer. We got an ok price, not great, but what do you expect in this market and economy? It's not a done deal, yet - we disclosed a roof leak we'd had over Labor Day weekend, and they want to come take a look at it (Jared looked at it when we had the problem, then we had a roofer out, and neither of them could see a significant problem, they figured it was the pelting rain combined with high winds that basically blew the rain horizontally. We've had a couple more heavy rains since, with no problems). Part of me is actually hoping they will decide to back out. Funny, that's usually a seller's worst nightmare, but I think, to some degree, Jared and I would both welcome that news. I do feel like this is the "right" thing for us at this time, but I'm incredibly nervous. And kind of harried. Did I mention they want to close Nov. 20th?! That gives me roughly 3 1/2 weeks to get everything in this house sorted through and packed up. Michelle came over to help me yesterday and took a trunkful of baby girl things off my hands. She's generously offered to keep those and store them for me, should I need them again someday. ;) I am going to have to get rid of so much stuff, and pack up all that's left. Not looking forward to this. We need to find a place in SD. We're still planning on renting at first. I've seen a few things that I think would work for us in our price range, but I'm worried nothing will be available when we need to move, and then I'm not sure what we will do. I guess I just need to have more faith that things will work out.
