Today was the day we were supposed to move into our new home, or the day we were supposed to travel to Nebraska, or the day we were supposed to announce to the world that we had eradicated poverty...
But instead, it will be the day that we sit at home and do nothing. I hope to play my PS3 for five hours, read for five hours, and eat for five hours. Liz probably hopes to get out of the house because I'm contagious. It's not a pretty picture.
Before i get to the REAL update, a story from this morning involves Liz and her pillow. She got up to let Chango out, and while she was up, I rolled over and coughed right onto her pillow (not on purpose). It was disgusting.
Oh yeah, the update. Our mortgage company ran into a MILLION problems with our application. They had to confirm with NTM Mexico that we were "employed" in the teaching field (praise god for Vonage... if this had happened 10 years ago, it would have taken a month). They needed to see receipts and stubs for EVERY deposit that cleared our account the last 60 days. Apparently we broke a fairly serious law with our purchase agreement by asking for the chandelier to stay, and this all adds up to NOT closing on our house yesterday. If it doesn't close by the 24th, we don't get the house, and the seller goes to foreclosure. My prayer is Monday.
