hurry up.. and wait

So, the move has now been postponed until July 25th.  GRRRRRR.  We still close on Friday but will not get the keys until the 25th.  I'm so annoyed.  Yes, you are right, there are a lot WORSE things in life than postponing a stupid move, but right now (and my kids would agree) this is NOT making me happy.  Especially because we found out 4 days until we were getting the keys.  So today I spent 2 hours of my precious life on the phone changing the days for all the transfers.  Everyone was so sweet and nice.  Except the city of League City.  They were SO rude.  Yes, League city, you are THAT important to be rude to a little pion like me.  Seriously, you could hear the woman chewing her freakin' lunch while talking to me.  I swear that bleach blonde woman eating her 5 dollar footlong just thought she was the... bomb.  She sounded totally annoyed that I switched the days and then went on to tell me, "Ma'am if this happens again, you WILL need to put it in writing", again.. yes, city of League city, you are THAT important.  
Verizon (phone company) was very nice, except the 54 minute hold that I was one.  During that hold, the kids were playing in kate's room.  Still haven't gone in there to assess the damage.  
Luckily the people who are buying our house are super sweet and understanding and let us rent back our house for the price of beans.  I know this will all be over soon and a distant memory, but right now.. SO. NOT. FUN.  Did I mention the MILLION boxes I am living out of?  I couldn't find a pan yesterday so I had to UNPACK boxes..  what is WRONG with this?  oh well..
Did I mention two weeks ago that Kara got a concussion?  She fell off the back of the couch, threw up, and looked like she was going to sleep, but after a couple of hours in the ER, we are back to normal.
Alright, just wanted to update the house situation.  My previous post is much nicer and more like a Christian should act, but I use this blog to vent as well, so this is me venting.. 
oh, if you EVER see the lady who works for the City of League City (bleach blonde, eating her 5 dollar footlong, at least that's what I could tell from talking to her on the phone..) feel free to treat her like you would a cat (my dad and husband speed up when they see a cat.. I'm just sayin')

A pion is a combination of quarks and antiquarks and may or may not have an electric charge. As subatomic particles go, it's one of my favorites.

How is it you can close now and not get the keys until the 25th? I suppose that makes sense in LA-La Land!

I'm sorry about all the frustration with the house and League City. While I'm in town I'll keep my eye out for the bleach blonde woman eating a footlong.
