Home Sweet Home

Posted on: June 23, 2024 | Posted by: Kelley Lynn

This is going to be short today, because I have to be out of my house in about 40 minutes so that total strangers can come and walk through, touch all our stuff, and then decide if our home is meant to be their home soon. Yup, today is our second Open House. Yesterday was the first, and it went well. About eight groups of people came through our house, according to our Realtor, and the feedback was positive. We are hopeful this will all result in some strong offers, which are due Monday/tomorrow at 5pm.

In the meantime, its a strange feeling having other people looking at the place you have called home for 3 years. The place where you built memories, made improvements to, had arguments in, laughed like crazy in, had holidays with family in, shared great meals with each other in, so much more. As all of this becomes more real by the day, Im getting emotional both about the house and my marriage, which will be ended by the courts on July 26th when we have our divorce hearing. Its a lot to take all at once. Im sad. Im tired. And I promise to write more and with more thought in a few weeks when things calm down a bit, and I have some more time to play with.

Thank you for reading. Im out of words at the moment.
