School is starting soon. Our house has not sold. :(
We have looked at our options the last week. We have been approved to buy the house we want without selling our house in AR, but after much thought, we REALLY are not comfortable stretching ourself that thin. If we were to buy the house here, now, instead of waiting until the house sells, we could put a lot more down than they require, but not near what we want (not near the equity we have in the house in AR). Then when our house in AR DOES sell, the money from the house would just go in the bank, unless we paid the money to refinance the house and put the money down.
We have decided that the boys and I will be moving back the beginning of August. I still have to register Bryce before school starts and have his Kindergarten assessment done. We don't know where Daddy is going to be staying down here after August, as we only have this corporate house until Sept 1.
We will have to get a Uhaul truck this time, instead of just a trailer like when we moved down here. Everytime we have gone back to AR we have brought back as much as we could. The trailer was STUFFED.
Paul asked what I was going to do with all of the boxes when we moved back, so the house did not look junky for those wanting to look at it. Well, I am unpacking. I know - lots of extra work, but I am TIRED of living out of boxes!!
This is a very hard, depressing decision for us to make. But, what do ya do? We are beginning to wonder if this was the right move. After all of the debating we did whether or not to accept this position, it seems like the best move - EXCEPT our house isn't selling!!
PLEASE keep praying for us. It does not matter how we work this deal, at this point it is VERY stressful. We can be stressed financially or we can be stressed by not being together (AGAIN) - either way it SUCKS!!!
