The Sinister Scribe

Some days I love being a mother. Some days... well... I don't.Today was in the don't category. Jessie was being a pill more so than usual. "No, I don't want to go to daddy. I want you to follow me around mommy. If you don't I'm going to throw a fit." Mommy's reply "Ok. Let me know when you're done." {insert fit here }At least that's what I think she'd say if she could.

Sam was... just being Sam. Although, we did have a good time going over his math homework. (Ok, that sounds really weird). There for a little while, he was really concentrating and "got it." It was one of those "teacher moments" I've heard Bob talk about. You know, where you can almost see the light bulb come on. Then I pushed it too long and he "blew his bulb." And there was no installing a new one at that point.

Moving on to other frustrations... Today we decided to leave the house on the market but not do open houses every week. Whenever it sells, we go.

Talked to our realtor today which was nice. Usually Bob gets to talk to her for one reason or another. I just chalk it up to she calls until she gets one of us and it really doesn't matter which one.

Seems her husband and boss have conspired to get her to take a vacation to Hawaii. I think its a wonderful thing and really am not worried about it. Bob, on the other hand, seems to be quite miffed. *Sighs* I really didn't think it mattered which one of us she told because one would tell the other. Well, I was wrong and now he's upset.

Its so weird when we're a "different page" so to speak. It happens so rarely. But alas... it does happen... about once every 5 years or so. ; ) All things considered, that isn't too bad. Unless it just happened, then it feels real bad.

Today started out so upbeat too. I really felt that the couple who last looked at the house would make us an offer. Their realtor had talked to Casi and said they were really interested but were looking in the low 620's. Bob's not willing to go lower than the HIGH 620's. But I had a feeling they'd still make an offer... that this was THE house for them. I suppose they still could make an offer. But I really thought that today was IT.

Hmmm... mebbe they still think tomorrow is the last chance.
