An offer they [might] refuse

Posted on March 2, 2013 | 24 Comments

We are on pins and needles again. We have now made our offer on the new Farmlet! We hope they accept it, but they could counter-offer or even refuse.

So, now we wait!

A view from the upper paddock

“…The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part…”

~Tom Petty~

I know Tom was on another wavelength when he wrote these words, but they seem apropos to the way we are feeling right now.

And the more you want it, the longer the wait! Will be lifting you up in prayer.

‘Waiting’ is the hardest word to endure.

Best to try and go about one’s normal daily routine and put it out of your mind by assuming a negative outcome, (and then being pleasantly surprised when it all turns out positive and successful into the future).

I don’t envy you the wait.

  I can take the word. It is the time involved in anticipation that is the killer. But you are correct. We must carry on no matter the outcome! Thanks, Victoria!

The suspense is killing me!
- Lynda | March 2, 2013 at 9:41 pm |
  
  Me too! But however it works out, it is how it is supposed to be. There are reasons for every outcome, even when the answer is, “NO.”

I’m patiently waiting with you!
- Lynda | March 3, 2013 at 5:45 am |
  
  Well, then at least one of will be calm while I wait! Thank you, Patti!

  Oh, you are such a darling to do that for me!
  Seriously, thank you for positive thoughts. They mean a lot.

If you don’t get this one that just means that there is a better one waiting for you!
- Lynda | March 4, 2013 at 10:08 am |
  
  That is an AWESOME way to look at it, dou dou! (although we haven’t seen a thing that we’ve liked so well…)
  I know you are right.
