High hopes

Quick update:

We’ve put in an offer on a house in Lehi and right now we’re basically waiting for a response.  Well, we submitted it on Wednesday of last week and were told they had until Monday by 5:00 to respond.  What I didn’t realize was that it was 5:00 Monday that the OWNER had to respond.  We can’t even submit the offer to the bank until the owner responds and signs the offer.   Today, Carriene said that she talked to the sellers realtor and our offer is the best and highest right now, so they’re confident that we’ll get it, but still, they can’t go anywhere until the owner signs.  There’s a lot of junk in the house and she told him we’d even be willing to clean it ourselves if they’d just light a fire under their butts and get going!  I’m SO ready to move, it’s disgusting.  Bart and I are both exhausted from looking at houses and fairly “blah” about continuing after this.  We both really want this house and my hopes are up way higher than they should be… I’m just so ready to be done.  Ugh.  Here’s a look at the house:

It’s not the most glamorous house, but we both love it to death.  I hope that everything goes smoothly, that there’s nothing nightmare-ish during inspections, etc.

Today is such a beautiful day and I’m despising being cooped up in the office.  This is the kind of day that I want to go outside and literally soak the sun into my skin and take deep breaths.  I wanna lay on the grass somewhere and read a book and get as much Vitamin D into my veins as possible before it starts SNOWING (supposed to on Wednesday… Grrr).  I’m just ready for the Spring to be Spring and Winter can stay Winter… at the OTHER END of the year.  It’s already April. WHY is there still snow?!  I think Mother Nature is getting confused with time lines.

I’m insanely tired today.  I know who/what is at fault though.  Me.  It always happens when I take naps.  I didn’t even intentionally take a nap yesterday afternoon, but I fell asleep in the chair while reading my book.  Because I took a nap, I wasn’t tired when I tried to go to sleep last night.  On top of that, I was insanely hot all night and even after taking all my clothes off, I was still extremely, uncomfortably stuffy and hot.  I’m so tired.  As a matter of fact, I’m too tired to even finish writing.  Whatever I intended on writing, has escaped me and I have no clue what I was going to say.
