Waiting Game

I don't have much to say today because we're in a state of limbo. We found a GREAT apartment in the best part of South Beach. It is a 2/2 with a washer and dryer in the unit. The price is right and it is only a 3 block walk to the beach. My husband's commute will only take 5 - 10 minutes and I'll be traveling opposite of traffic. Sounds wonderful right? In a way, it is almost too good to be true.

Now, we are just waiting for concrete proof of financing from our buyer. He has until tomorrow to provide it. Isn't it horrible to be waiting for something to happen so you can get what you want? I feel like I am impatiently putting my life on hold to the point of being practically handcuffed. I don't know if I should start packing or making arrangements. Everything seems like a waste of time. If it all goes well, I will have to hit the ground running very soon.

Realistically, I will not be crushed if this all doesn't happen. I will be fine if the sell falls through. Just yesterday, we had a couple stop by that really wanted our house and were disappointed that there was already a contract in place. It was appraised for $5,000 more than our selling price, so we could probably get a little more. Plus, we can always find another apartment that we will like, even if it is not as great as this one. I guess mostly, I hate waiting to find out our fate.
