DENIED

They denied him. You have no idea how my hopes plummeted when I heard, but I was glad the loan officer called me before he did. Therefore, I was prepared for his call and did not reveal the extent of my disappointment to him. I know he feels for me and would feel bad about my situation and that would be compounded by his disappointment of not getting approved.

So I am back to square 1. I put a call into the woman that did my pre-qualification and am praying that she will be able to do something for us.

On a positive note, well three positives:

1. I was out house-hunting yesterday just to make sure I had seen all my options. Went to several new communities and I found my DREAM condo/townhouse. It was huge, great yard, location is good . . . but price is high. Prayed last night that God would work it out for me. Maybe this denial his answer to make me wait a bit longer and hopefully prices will go down and my savings will go up. But it was perfect!

2. My mom and brother are going to take the kids to the beach today so I will have a quiet day to work.

3. Got a sitter for tonight so I will have my first adults night out with my parents and two of my brothers tonight. It will be nice.

More later . . .
