BUT... when I was growing up, whenever I just couldn't wait for something to happen, my momma always said, "don't wish your life away". The older I get, the more I realize how smart that was.
So my wish for you-- in addition to the couple buying your house-- is for you to relish the anticipation without letting it drive you crazy. Don't forget how fortunate you are right now, right where you are.
Here's wishing you all the best.

p.s., Let us know when you sell your house so we can feel your joy and excitement. |
Saly, Pturner gave you excellent advice. It is very hard I know to look forward to something, but today is a wonderful day for doin' whatever it is you are doin'. I remember when our Helene was little and we were on vacation and right in the middle of a fun activity she would ask "What are we doing tomorrow?". I spent my time waiting looking at decorating magazines and shopping for accessories and making curtains and painting pictures for our new home. I also bored my friends to death talking about TV.
You will see that dream come true....very soon, and we all hope to see your happy face all the time, living your dream, but don't throw away today.
