I’m house sitting for my parents as they left to visit my sister in Australia today. The farm needs a bit more attention and it’s easier to make one trip back to our place than four trips here a day. This time I’m hoping there will be no embarrassing toe-sucking stories for me to never live down like last time.

It also gives us a chance to do some of the stuff that’s needed to our place to get it on the market, something which needs to happen soon. I sent back our police check forms last week, along with the form to say we were ready for our interviews.  I’m hoping to hear by the end of the week our exact date.

We haven’t heard back about the house. For all our rushing to get the offer in, the seller’s agent didn’t present it until Monday, along with other offers that came in over the weekend. Of course, being bank owned, it has to go through more people than weekly underwear changes. The longer it takes, the more nervous and stressed I get. I’ve fallen in love with this place, and I know exactly what furniture is going to go where even though I haven’t actually seen it in person.

According to our agent, forget the crossed fingers ... she’s going straight for the rosary beads.

Just A Little Gnome ...
