Which means that our house has not received one single offer yet. We have had surprisingly very little traffic. The weird thing is the feedback is positive. Lot’s of people have loved the house. I guess just not enough to actually buy it. We are in crunch time right now. We took a big chance and now we need to make some decisions on what to do next. I covet your prayers for this house to sell and quickly. You see, if it doesn’t then part of what we need to do is cut back on everything. And I like food, and hot water, and heat in the fall, and my phones and my internet. So if it doesn’t sell quickly then I will have to tearfully say goodbye to some or all of these things. I wonder what will be the first thing to go? Will it be my food, or my internet. Hmmm….it’s a toss up.

Hi Susan…
I stumbled on your blog from the Nester yesterday and for some reason was really drawn in to read your story… thanks for sharing your journey!
I don’t know you at all – and don’t really know your situation with the house – but, we are looking to buy in the next year or so and have been spending a lot of time looking into lease options to purchase. Have you considered something like this as an owner? Just thought I’d mention it. I read an ebook a few months ago that spelled out the entire process and it really looks like a great win-win for both sellers and buyers… especially in this kind of a market. I’d be happy to share the name of the book if you are interested… it was an ebook and I couldn’t put it down!
I’ll be praying for you over these coming days and weeks though… funny how the Lord can put people on your heart that you have never ‘met’…
Blessings!

I’ll be praying for your situation, Susan! God does have His perfect timing… I just hope it is SOON!
oh man. The limbo is killin’ me too. It’s hard to be patient and trust that He is in control. It’s a discipline issue for me.
