Jill's Journal: A mere two days ago, I was completely miserable that our house hadn’t sold yet in the 12 days it was on the market. Logically, I know 12 days is a drop in the bucket, especially in the current economic climate. But mentally, I hated every showing (with an intense passion!) and felt our launch date was slipping farther and farther away.
But that was two mornings ago.
That afternoon, we got a low offer from a couple who had seen our house three days in a row. Hours of negotiating later, thanks to our steadfast determination and our diplomatic pit bull of an agent, we had a contract for only $1900 less than our asking price. It doesn’t get much better than that.
And now it’s warp speed ahead! They want to close three weeks from today, with immediate possession at closing. That sounded great at first, but it has sunk in that three weeks is FAST approaching. We suddenly need to find a new home for just about everything we own. And we don’t dare get rid of anything big before the inspection and appraisal, just in case something falls through and we have to start having showings again. Yowsa.
It WILL get done. It has to!

I disagree - Jill did not hate showings with an intense passion - it was bigger... you need the mostest horriblenessest of depicable hatred...words that they can't even fathom... THAT is how she felt about it.
