Just when I thought I had a plan and had things figured out something changes.  I figured I had the plan to take the house off the market the 1st of December, do some upgrades, put the house back on the market after the first of the year like February.  Well depending on who you talk to in our camp we should do something different.

On one hand I have people saying we should do upgrades, not spend a whole lot of money (but do floors and the kitchen….not sure what that all entails yet).  Then there is the theory of dropping the price again by another $10-15K and let it ride.  Then there is the idea to not do anything.  The price is right, the upgrades don’t really matter since there is no guarantee that people are going to even like the upgrades you do and will just change to what they like anyway.  And just wait it through since it’s slow during the holidays anyway.

So I’ve been trying to get a census of what everyone things.  The major consensus it seems is to take it off the market for the remainder of the year.  don’t change the price, and don’t do any upgrades.  But who knows, this could all change tomorrow.  I don’t think anyone knows anything.  And I don’t know that there is any way to tell exactly which direction is right or wrong.

The only thing I know right now is to not do anything until December 1st. But there is just no telling.  I think the frustrating thing for me is that I am the type of person that needs a direction.  I need to be doing something productive and right now it’s like I can’t really do anything.  I’m trying to find something I can do to make a little cash from home.  I have realized I’m not good if I don’t have a schedule.

I keep trying to convince myself it will all work out in the end.  Everything will be okay.  Once the house is sold and I’m up in Montana we will look back at this and laugh and how we were worrying about nothing.  The unknown is always scary and unsettling.

In other news.  I’ve been dizzy all day long.  Like to the point where I can’t walk straight.  I also have ear pain.  So I’m sure it’s just some ear infection or some sinus thing throwing me off.  I’ve been trying to drink a lot of water today.  Hopefully I’ll be a bit better tomorrow.

So tomorrow I figure I’ll clean…because well…why not.  And I’ll pick something else to pack.   Which the neighbor keeps bringing me boxes.  Which I am very grateful for but I’m going to have to tell her I have plenty right now!
