So much has been happening with the house and because of this thing, we don't actually care. We are in discussions with our buyers to reduce the cost of our house. In the past month alone the boiler has thrown a dicky fit, the chimney has started leaking and damp has appeared in the kitchen. If only we'd sold a month quicker!!! I suspect the damp in the kitchen is down to a faulty gutter next door which is leaking, hitting our water butt and hitting the exact spot that is getting damp in the kitchen. The buyers have had an independent report done and been told that it needs the damp proof course re-doing - sigh.
My Mum had cancer a number of years ago. She had an op and Radiotherapy and away it went. We'd just gotten home from a fabulous bonding trip to New York when we found out she was ill. Over Christmas she thought she had a gallstone so was booked in for a scan. We've found out that the cancer is back. I am scared witless. She knows I am. We are trying to be big and brave and we will fight it. Life sucks.
Love you Mum. x
You don't have to keep the not good things, the difficult things, the hard things or the sad things to yourself. Your blog pals are here for you and will support you and care about you no matter what you share. That doesn't mean either that you have to tell everything or anything, but don't ever feel that you can't. I hope that all will be as well as it possibly can for your Mum, she has come through once and who is to say that she will not do the same again. I am sure that your buyers will sort things out too, this kind of thing happens all the time, that is why they have surveys and people still sell and buy houses. I am sending you all very good thoughts and hugs and hopes that all will go as well as it can. Always here to listen when you need. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy. It just feels like it's all rubbish just lately. Hopefully the house will get sorted at the start of the week and we can agree a moving date. To be honest, it is not stressful compared to my Mum, so it'll be what it'll be. x
DeleteTroubles never do come singly, do they? Hope and prayers (if you don't mind) for your Mum. It's horrible when something comes back.
ReplyDeleteAnd please do share. A trouble shared, as they say.... we're not just here for the nice things in life.
We don't mind at all. We are all doing it at this end anyway. x
DeleteI'm so sorry to read what you are all coping with just now. I wish there were some magic words which I could say to make all things better.
ReplyDeleteTake good care of yourself.

Thanks Lisa. Scary times but we still have each other so we just need to get through it.
