breakdown


I had a mini breakdown today...

We receive a phone call and one of the real estate agents wanted to bring someone through our house with only 15mins notice. Of course this morning was the morning that I didn't make the beds, or hadn't put the dishes in the dishwasher yet. And general stuff was lying around, towels in the bathroom, toys in the lounge room! Instead I went for a nice long walk with my hubby and let him talk me into relaxing on the whole spotless house thing for one day.

Oh Boy did I go off my tree and loose it completely in that 15 minutes. I was racing around the house like a crazy person picking stuff up and shoving it in cupboards while screaming at my husband. I had tears streaming down my face and felt like I couldn't breathe! I think I was hyperventilating. And of course the people arrive before we had placed the leads on the dogs - it’s the worst thing ever having two dogs, when you are trying to sell your house!

Day 2 of the sales campaign….I’m hoping for a quick sale before I go completely insane!

{By the way its the weirdest feeling walking out of your house with your dogs and leaving strangers behind.  I wonder if I will ever get use to it.}

Fingers crossed for you. It's impossible to have a tidy house with kiddies :) x

Oh, I'm sure it wasn't so bad after all. Hope you can sell it quick though!

Hoping for a quick sale for you!
I had a breakdown today too, but for a totally different reason...

Fingers crossed:) Hopefully not more surprise inspections for you.

That must have been so stressful. At least they are looking at the house and not what is in it! Your house looked beautiful in the pictures though.

Good luck on the sale. Pretty exciting.

I remember those days and would get so stressed out. Doing it with 3 dogs is even more fun than doing it with 2!!
