Fingers crossed...

So we are back looking at houses again. The one in Cottage Grove was a bust. Which in reality was a blessing in disguise.
We were set to look at 9 today but only made through 3. The third one was the one. The first one was a close second. The second one blew...
We won't even to go into the laundry list reasons as to why. Let us just say GROSS is being gentle. The house that we put an offer on was a fluke - our realtor was relayed our tale of house buying woe to her coworkers so they have been giving her addresses that we would want to check out. The house we looked at isn't even listed yet. I am very scared because of our two previous experiences but you know what? I am so used to bad that if it turns out good it will be a wonderful surprise.
Bonus - our landlord has extended our lease so no van by the river and our financing is a go.
So really aside from not having a house - we are doing good!
Keep your fingers crossed and send us well wishes - if all goes well we will invite you over for brats and beer in our new beautiful backyard!
