2 days shy of being 5 months pregnant and all I can think about is Real Estate. 2 years ago when I was pregnant with our first, our house was on the market and we found our dream home, except we could not call it ours until we sold our condo. Everyday we waited for an offer that never came. I worked in Boston and made sure the house was perfect everyday incase of a showing—That never happened. April of 2008 the stress got me, the company I worked for went under and I was getting so close to my due date that I had to start nesting so we took our house off the market and settled back into our condo.
2 years later and here we go again. I am again pregnant with our condo waiting to be sold and watching as the house we dreamed about for months gets sold. And we are not the buyers. I again want to say forget it lets stay here. We have put in so much work and no one is even looking at our place once again. But it is only a 2 bedroom and we are running out of space. But when is enough? Can a family of 4 really not survive in a 2 bedroom? I have now rented a storage unit that is packed solid of baby clothing toys and girl clothes that have been handed down from our niece. We have no where to put bottles and if I have to dig my car out of the snow one more time I might scream!
Right when we placed our condo on the market we received our first call for a showing. We mopped floors dusted tops of cabinets and even baked muffins for a good atmosphere. As we sat in our neighbors parking spot and watched as the time went by we finally realized we had been stood up! When we walked back into our home that had been turned into a model home I just plopped down on the couch and ate a freshly made muffin. Here we go again…
