While Nancy was out shopping today, the realtor called me to tell us we had gotten two offers on our house today. They are both pretty similar offers, and both acceptable to us. The only thing we want to change is the closing date. If we can bump that back a few weeks, we can move straight into our new house, without having to find somewhere to live for 3 weeks.
I called Nancy to tell her the good news. I went through the main points of each offer, and she was really excited. I then told her that I was only joking. We hadn't really gotten any offers. She was very mad at me that I would play such a cruel joke on her. But she knows me well, and knows I am certainly capable of such things. Plus, the realtor usually calls her, not me...so that made it possible that I made the whole thing up. I finally told her that I was just messing with her, and that we really had gotten two offers. Then she was really mad that I would do that to her, and she still didn't really believe me until I showed the offers to her.
Our house showed three times yesterday (twice to the same person) and once today, so we were hoping something would come of the showings. Little did we expect two offers! Now we'll keep our fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly from here, because we are still a long way from signing on the dotted line.
We are expecting them to finish the brick work tomorrow, so expect some more pictures.
