The good news is that after cutting our asking price again...and again...and still again, we accepted a lower than asking price offer on our little house.. SOLD!!!
The bad news is that the house and space we are looking for is so out of our budget it's not funny :-(
The Husband rejects houses without even looking inside them. The reality of what he wants and what we can afford is not sinking into his thought process yet, causing me confusion and annoyance, especially since we have to find a place to live in as soon as our house sale completes.
There is something to be said about us humans and dissatisfaction. No matter how much life gives us we find reasons to be dissatisfied. Instead of shuffling about a bit to be happy in a situation, we stretch outwards beyond what is reasonable and expect to find that elusive perfect situation/house/life.
I'm convinced that I can be happy anywhere if there is peace, love, respect and above all good health. It's a shame that I'm looked on by others as, "a new age odd ball trying to rediscover all things spiritual and nice"- (not my words but someone else's.)
I am deeply grateful for my life, I am very aware of my shortcomings, and I want to use this precious life to get it right - whatever that "it" is.. Hmmm..maybe they do have a point about me being an odd ball - but that's okay. Right now I just need to find a place to live..
Tara is battling a cold-cough and ear infection but apart from a giant dollop of crankiness she seems to be coping well.
and life goes on....
