Monday Monday Monday...

Sleep seems to be a thing of the past. I keep waking up thinking about this house, "are we going to get is" and "you think they will take the offer" all night. I swear it is like having a newborn again. It is making me crazy, totally and completely I-need-a-straight-jacket crazy.
I have been praying for this, really I am not joking. Every Friday night after lighting candles I ask for guidance on where our family is going to live. I just wasn't sure how this was going to work out with finding a house here.
Tonight, we are getting together with our fantastic agent. I went to HS with him, his older brother was in my class. He is so savvy, I'll bet he is going to make a fortune in real estate here. He is a fantastic agent and an even better person. Last night he was so kind to give me the occasional email of reality. You know the emails that brings your mind out of the fog where you are planning the perfect kitchen. We have all been there haven't we? As of right now the one in my head has white cabinets, duel fuel range, black granite with flecks of blue and a checkerboard floor in navy and white. So classic, so clean, with a farmhouse porcelain sink. OK back from the cloud...
I have to admit my fantasy kitchen is far more appealing as I sit here in my 2 bedroom apartment with a kitchen so small you can't open the fridge door the whole way.
For most people they hate Mondays. I love them. Monday is my older son's long day at school. So for 6 hours I only have 1 baby to deal with. Jack can be a force to be reckoned with but at least can work around him and get things done. OK he is awake....back to mommying...
