I am an impatient person by nature. I like to see things moving. I hate to wait. I know that this attitude is a God issue. I am not sure what else I can do, but give it to God and just…wait. This sounds so easy, but my Lord it’s difficult! The house is starting to stress me. I feel like we’re rushing around to make sure that it’s show ready, but we’re not getting any shoppers. Everyday we hear more and more about how bad the market is in Atlanta. That doesn’t help at all. I know that my mom is doing all that she can do in light of the current situation. I just want things to move quicker. Sadly, I start to second guess my plans when things don’t pick up like I intended them to. I have been starting to think that I might need to keep the condo and a. stay in it. b. rent it out. c. lease purchase it to someone. My main plan is to never have 2 mortgages so all the other ideas don’t make sense. The biggest issue for me is this patient deal. Currently the US is in a money crunch. A lot of people who made bad decisions with money are being put through the ringer so to speak. A lot of them are making even dumber decisions now in light of the current situation. Right now I am mindful that I could make some bad decisions if I get frustrated and impatient. I promise you any patience I exhibit is God and not me. G went out of town today. So Trina and I are going to be kicking strong for the next couple of days. This will be fun. We have a packed weekend and an open house planned. Should be a lot of fun.

It is always good, and on time, and it helps us take a deep breath and relax. It also helps us to avoid rash decisions. ----- --------
