Selling Envy

So I started to believe the lies - my house isn't selling because the market sucks and it is getting into a slower market, I started, but I have now decided no, there is something else. I have changed my mind because it seems like a week has not passed since the "market down turn" that a house has not sold in the immediate area.

Today, I am driving to work and there is a house on the way, only one house on my way to work, that was for sale, and apparently, over the weekend it sold!

Last week I was going for groceries, on my normal route, and there was a house that sold there - and it is like feet from the railroad tracks - it sold!

The week before that - the absolutely hideous house that we wanted to buy next because it was so terrible, with carpet in the dining room and poker wallpaper in the loft - it sold!

The only thing that is keeping me slightly upbeat and cheerful is that the other two houses on my street have not sold, because quite honestly mine is better, and it is the overly competitive, bitchy side of me that does not want to see their houses sell before mine. Yes, apparently others failures make me upbeat and cheerful, I am a bad person.

Keeping it short today. Just my jealous thought.

xo,
Sam
