BUY ME!!!
Great plans for the weekend? No? I have an idea. COME AND BUY MY HOUSE!!!!
What’s sexy, sassy, big enough for your entourage, with fabulous lake views? MY HOUSE. COME BUY. SPECIAL PRICE FOR YOU!
How could you go wrong? 3200 sq. ft. 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, fully landscaped yard. You know you want it. You KNOW you do.
We’re, um, starting to feel the encroaching panic. In one month, we will be the proud owners of a brand new house. We will also be the downtrodden owners of our old house.
Fortunately, we have saved up for this eventuality and we’ll be okay for a little while with both mortgages. But not for too long. And you know what would be smokin’ sweet? Is if someone were to buy our old house, oh, say, RIGHT NOW!
It’s not that it hasn’t been shown approximately a million times, it’s just that no one has made an offer. No one says it’s overpriced or ugly or dirty or anything like that. I just isn’t the house for THEM. Sigh. It makes me feel powerless, because if there were something WRONG with it, I’d fix it. In the meantime, I just wait.
These are the things that keep my husband up at night. He’s so wonderfully responsible (and a big fat pessimist…), so something like this concerns him because he’s already picturing us carrying two mortgage payments six months from now. That won’t be very good. And, due to said responsibility, he can’t sleep for the terror that this possibility brings.
So, come on over and buy my house. Seriously.
