Underneath it all

Well this week didn't start off that well, we had a telephone call on Monday morning to say that my mother's chain has broken down (my mother is selling her home), and we were this close *pinching finger and thumb together* to completing the sale this week, but the bottom end of the chain has decided "nah, don't wanna move now" (?!) I mean you just don't mess around with things of this magnitude (and I take their point that if doesn't feel right fine, but DON'T buy the place you were intending to buy in the first place if you had any doubts!) so anyway, to cut a long story short my mother's house is having to go back on the market to enable hopefully a quick sale...

It has all been quite fraught to say the least, the fact that I'm taking the full brunt of the responsibility helping my mother out, so feel really stressed as its all out of my control. Buying houses and selling houses is not an easy process (as I'm sure most of you out there probably know) so why do some people have to be so blase about it - its a BIG commitment, but some people obviously can't make monumental decisions that they can't follow through...sorry having a real rant, but I'm sure you understand how I feel at this moment.

On the bright side (is there one) the sun is shining and hopefully that will pick my mood up (a bit!) I'm such a misog at the moment, that seriously I think the world and its mother are against me (I'm such a drama queen!) but I'm sure it'll pass soon (but it can't come soon enough...)
