Well, it would appear that Bank of America rejected our bid from the auction. I do not profess to know how that is possible, but it is so. We will not be moving to this strange house in the country. We are not all torn up about it, but we are a little frustrated that we wasted our time going to an auction that they will not honor. It makes me a little confused as to how the system works. Why would they let a house go to auction if they did not intend to let the house sell? I have been watching the real estate market for quite a while now, and will be interested to see if the house gets listed, and at what price, or if they will just let it sit there and rot? Either way, I guess we won't be buying it. We are back to looking. One thing is for sure, nobody is upset at the idea we don't have to pack again! :) Real estate is a fickle bitch. It would be easy to get bogged down by rejection, by the time consumption that we don't really have, and by trying to decide what we think is best. We are choosing not to do that. We are holding our heads high and knowing that God will firmly plant our family where He wants us when the timing is right.
In nicer news, we are very proud of Colin who lettered as a varsity wrestler his freshman year. It was not an easy ride, and he definitely worked his rump off this year. We are also extremely happy to announce that Mallory was elected as the historian of the National Honor Society at Santa Fe Trail High School. She is excited about the opportunity and is also excited about having a reason to scrapbook with someone else footing the bill.
what a bummer! That recently happened to friends of ours who were trying to bid on a huge beautiful old home. In the end, the bank listed it for double their "winning bid."So goofy!
