fester, fester, fester
I have a nervous twitching in my gut today.
I don’t really know why—things seem to be going pretty well lately. Maybe it’s just all the change and excitement. Maybe it’s because we got the inspection addendum back from our buyer today and he’s nickel-and-diming us on repairs. Maybe it’s because we’re looking at selling one of our cars before we move. Maybe it’s that I’m running budget numbers left and right for the fall and trying to figure out how we’ll afford it all.
Whatever it is, I’ve felt all morning like I’ve forgotten something important, or like I’m waiting to hear bad or good news. I feel like I’m anticipating something, but there’s nothing to anticipate.

Am I reading this right? Do you have a contract on your house? Awesome! Don’t worry about the nickel and diming stuff. It happens in every deal; it’s just part of the process. It’ll be fine.
Congratulations!
We do have a contract and our buyer is weird. He is so insistent on having $200 dollars worth of repairs done BEFORE closing that he’s essentially giving us an extra $200 so we’ll take care of them. WHy he can’t do them himself after we’re gone is beyond me.
