Real quick update tonight, first Kage is continuing to improve by the day. I have to say the little girl just amazes me. I would've been prepared to swear just a little over a week ago that she'd never be able to adapt to living on 3 legs, but by the gods she's more than just coping...she's excelling. She even made it outside briefly last night, though it wore her completely out. She seemed to enjoy the fresh air, and she slept nice and soundly last night.

On the other hand, the house does not look like it's going to happen for me after all. The lenders backed out at the last second leaving me entirely high and dry. The broker's still making positive sounds, and elo_sf went above and beyond trying to help me out, but for naught, it would seem. I am attempting to view this as a classic lesson in non-attachment. At least now that I've gotten most of the stuff I'd set up for the move canceled, I can relax again and maintain a philosophical outlook. Everyone tells me I'm being very Zen about it, I'm choosing to take that as a compliment.

The downside is, of course, that I've packed away my entire life already. I cannot even begin to think about unpacking just yet. Not just yet.

Well the problem right now is that there are few lenders thanks to the housing bust/recession, so options are limited. Those remaining few are skittish about making any loans, even when one has sterling credit and can clearly afford the payments.

However, my broker just got contacted by the CEO at the lenders who is apparently going over the head of the underwriter to try to work things out. So resolution may not be completely impossible. We shall see.

Fingers crossed that the house situation resolves in your favor! Any idea how long before you'll know?

No idea at all I'm afraid, but I do know the broker is very keen to get this wrapped up.
