Just a quick update for those of you who, like us, are wondering what is happening about the house we want to buy.
Having been expecting a phone call from the agent since Tuesday, we received an email tonight (way after working hours!) to say that the owner of the extra land that we were interested in buying can’t sell it without the agreement of his successor (whatever that means). However, it seems that there will be some other bits of land around the house for sale during this year, and the agent says that if we’re interested in that, he will pursue it for us straight away.
Well, durr! Of course we are.
Suddenly I feel overwhelmed with a powerful sense of deja-vu. The bits of land that might now be for sale are actually better in some ways than the bits we thought would be available, but aren’t. Could we be that lucky? Or is it going to turn into another of those roller-coaster rides when things seem good, then disappointing, then better than they were before, then disappointing again etc etc. And will the spectre of SAFER rear its ugly head and spoil the party again at the very last minute?
As always, Life is full of questions. And full of more waiting for answers. And we shall have to fill the waiting space with living in the Now, which is a good thing to do anyway. So I guess we should be thanking the Universe for yet another lesson in patience.
