Showing and showing

Showing and ...well you get the point. The house is suddenly a hot item. We have had 4 showings in 5 days. I can't even count how many times we have shown the house over the past year.I really think there should be a rule about going to look at a house. Don't waste our time if you are just starting and have no idea where you want to live. I mean if you want to live in Hampstead don't look at houses in Westminster. If you want a single family house , don't look at a townhouse. Don't tell me the rooms are too small. I live here, I know that. Also might I mention that the room sizes are posted on the listing! It's not a matter of national security. Don't mention kid clutter. There are more of them than there are of us! Maybe I should put in the listing that we are taking our crap with us. Don't gripe about the mall, traffic, the color of the sky, the length of the grass...I can't change it, move on. Don't watch HGTV and come to my house. I don't have a team of stagers hiding in the closets. If you are looking for a fire sale, go set someone elses listing on fire. We don't have to move therefore I do not have to to "give" my house to you. Forget what the media says. Houses are expensive, save your bargain hunting for the grocery store and Walmart. Hmm, I think I might be getting jaded in this process.

We still have no house to buy though. I'm going to have to start saving all the cardboard from the recycling bin so we can live in that ! Ack! I'm just hoping that the kids don't think I am serious.....
In happier news, I am one step closer to be diaper free forever around here! I just have to keep up with it!
