all better now

I went back to work today for the first time in two weeks. And we're under contract (again), pending inspection (next Tuesday) and the sale of our house. I'm trying to not be completely in love with the new house or mess with whatever good karma seems to be enveloping us at the moment. To have bounced back from losing the house, finding another, and negotiating our way into a contract before the tax credit deadline means we have some good vibes working in our favor.

I don't look at this so much as an issue of God or blessings; it feels more like a shifting of energies. We've focused positive energy on finding ourselves an appropriate new home, and that seems like an act of free will. God doesn't necessarily want us to be in this particular house, but He wants us to do right and be happy.

It's been hard to curb the ill will Tom and I both feel toward the unreasonable seller of the first house. But we have to let it go. Moving on with "the rebound" has made that easier, but I'm having to concentrate on not being hurt or angry. Have to keep the energy positive and keep the good real estate vibes strong!
