And it's so hard to believe them. Ha! But I know in the case of the house, it will definitely be true (someday).

The only other experience I can equate with this kind of feeling is dating. At first you have stars in your eyes and all the hope in the world that it will work out, but sometimes situations just don't. You're left sad, wondering when the "right one" will come along. Just like with love, it will happen and the right house will come along. <br /><br />So I guess that's all to say this: add me to the list of people who insist that things will work out for the better in their own time. And think of how truly excited and satisfied you will feel when you place a bid on the "right one" and you and Peter get to call it yours!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11345558627679373156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4310227245812322999.post-8180543533346746102013-04-04T16:07:29.959-04:002013-04-04T16:07:29.959-04:00Oh, Julie!

I totally understand that Monopoly-money feeling, but Devin and I were just talking yesterday about how if we had bought one of the co-ops that we bid on we would now be sad and broke (but with a huge apartment). So the waiting is worth it . . . BethPnoreply@blogger.com
