Don't beat yourself up Greenie. It's almost normal to forget all the details you need to list. it's not something you do every day either. Your agent should be happy to add those extras because it helps the house sell faster and for a better price = more moolah for him faster.

I do need a nap. Not sleeping that well lately. Yesterday, a moose got caught on a swimming beach not too far from here. Instead of rescuing the poor animal, the police took over a half hour to kill it. They really tortured her, and sadly it was all caught on video. Then I find out that the cat we are sponsoring at a lifetime care facility in my brother's honor doesn't have long to live. She has leukemia that has become active as well as intestinal cancer. I know she has the best care possible... but still. Add the two events together and you have a funk.

Then add it all to the stress of moving. We have the inspection on Tuesday. I know most houses have little things wrong with them. I was talking with my husband last night about the old "Please stop spending money until we get moved" routine. I told him I see at least 3500 euros of expenses over the next two months - paneling, paint, a dishwasher, a new stove, moving, half of the inspection fee, etc. Plus, we don't know if there are other defects that may need to be fixed. Mold is a huge problem here. So, he said last night that if the inspector finds anything even if it is little, we don't buy the house. I honestly don't know how much longer I can stand to live here. We essentially live in one room, with a tiny kitchen. We do have a lovely sauna and shower room, but we really don't spend much time there. My desk is 3 feet from my side of the bed.

So, yes, my stress levels right now are through the ceiling. Sadly, I think it is going to get worse before it gets better.
