Thank you for the gentle messages checking in on me :)
We're ok, it's just that my life seems to be in limbo. We have only yesterday received contracts for the sale of our house and my mums and still nothing on the house we are hoping to buy. It's a dreadful stage - slow, frustrating and full of doubts and fear. I'd so love to get excited and I'm having to keep reining myself in! I keep waking up in the middle of the night standing in my new plot (hopefully) planting stuff!
I'm not great at letting others take charge, so leaving everything in the hands of solicitors is not easy for me! Still, hopefully the two sales are going ahead at least....
It feels odd - as if normal life continues, but in a bubble. I'm still washing, ironing, cooking etc, but I haven't planted any veg, nor have I made any craft projects, so don't feel I have anything to blog about.
I am still here and I am desperate to be blogging again, but I'd quite like to wait until I've got something interesting to share, so thank you to all of you who are still holding on - I will be back blogging as soon as I have some news and thank you for your patience :)
Chin up. I'm sure things will start moving soon.x
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm enjoying watching your house and garden develop :)
DeleteIt seems to be the thing nowadays that everything goes right down to the wire before anything happens, we had hassles with a chain of only 3, my sister had even longer hassles with a chain of 4. But we and they got there in the end. So hang on in there!
ReplyDeleteOh, it's such a tedious process. I do not understand why anyone would want to do this too often!
DeleteIts certainly a stressful time moving. I am sure it will all work out in the end, take care.
ReplyDeleteThank you - fingers and toes crossed!
DeleteOh I so know how you feel, I'm in limbo land with you. Ours is still dragging on with all sorts of complications, at this rate you will be settled in your new home before us. I look forward to hearing all about your new adventures!
ReplyDeleteWe have had lots of monomers where I thought it might derail only to find that I was stressing for nothing as they didn't seem to care after all! Let's hope it's over and done with for both of us soon :)
DeleteSo glad that you are ok. I was imagining all sorts of dreadful scenarios.
ReplyDeleteHouse buying nearly always seems to be stressful. It will be worth it when
you really are planting things in the middle of your new plot! Sue
Sorry to cause you worry. It's easy to forget that blogland is a real community and that people really do read my ramblings! I just felt I had absolutely nothing to say :(
DeleteAnyway, hopefully things are moving now .....
Just keep visualising your new house/life and where you want to be etc and soon you will be living it as if it's always been. It works for me lol
ReplyDeleteI'm trying! Sometimes it works, other times less so ....
DeleteIt's one of the worst things ever buying and selling. Like you say it feels as though everything is out of your hands and you have to rely on strangers doing their stuff to be able to move forward with your life.
ReplyDeleteIt will work out in the end have faith, and there's no harm in doing a little planting in the garden .... you can always dig new things up and take them with you, I did :-)
I've dug up a few bits which were presents and potted them up. Meanwhile I'm contending myself with making list of all the things I want to grow and all the plants I want in my cottage garden. It's a LONG list.
