The house.....NO GOOD!!
We had the inspection done yesterday, and there were several things wrong. At first just several little things, but then ------- an entire master bedroom wall that literally crumbled beneath our fingers. TERMITES!! Big Time! So, buh-bye house on Grinnell. We shall continue with our search. But at least we know where we want to be, and that we want to find a house.
This is just about the time doubt starts to settel in and I have to yell, "Get out doubt! I don't want you here!" You may think that is figurative speech, but you would be wrong. I seriuosly just yelled it out loud, but not too loud because Wes is napping.
It's also a humbling moment for me. My husband is a wise, careful, thoughtful man and I should listen to him a lot better than I usually do.
He never said, "I told you so." Although he very well could have. He didn't trust the sellers of that house from the beginning. But, I was ever optimistic and regretably naive. And all he said was, "You needed to find out for yourself." Why didn't I just listen to him in the first place? I'll tell you why. Pride. That's why. How fun it is to learn your daily lesson.

Oh Tonia, I am so sorry. I know how hard it is to have your hart set on something and then have it all fall apart. Trust me, the house that is perfect for you will be way better then this one.
Thank you Coren. :(
I was sad, but then I just got mad that those people allowed the house to get in that condition, but didn't disclose anything. It is for the best.
