That title is a portion of lyrics from a Phineas and Ferb song (Disney cartoon). That's kind of how life seems right now. We're waiting to see how God moves in our lives.
Our buyers dropped out due to problems with their financing. It was very disappointing, but out of our control. We had an open house this past weekend with a very small turn out. In total, this first week of being back on the market we've had four groups that came out to see the house. We've also gotten our new roof installed, and a new vapor barrier in our crawl space (part of the old contract we had with the buyers).
If for some reason, God doesn't allow our home to sell, we will be out a chunk of money, but we'll have the new roof and vapor barrier. We also have the inspection report that showed some things we didn't realize our home was getting close to needing updates on. So the new information is good to have. It isn't how I want things to end up, but it would be do-able...trying to keep myself open and willing to God's plans instead of mine.
Being a planner, it is really hard to not plan out my ideal situations and beg God to do it my way. This whole year has been just trusting God and waiting, waiting, waiting to see how things will unfold. Not easy. We've had some curve balls thrown at us and we're trying to take them in stride and deal with what comes our way as best we can. It almost feels like stuffing your emotions, so I don't know how well we are dealing, but we are doing the best we can to continue to place everything in God's hands and let go of our own ideas in place of His.
