Grey Times

In my last post, I said I was going to keep blogging along because it was therapeutic. After I said that, I found myself avoiding writing. I suppose it has been that so many things seem grey to me now. My fuzzy feelings make it harder to focus. The weather has been grey. It's hard to plan to do anything outside because of the rain. Phil is full of greyness as he tries to figure out what to do with his life now. He has been staying with us off and on until the summer quarter begins. We decided to lower our asking price for our house. There is greyness there, too, since we wonder if we are doing the right thing. We did get an offer just a few days after we lowered the price. I suppose that means we are in the right price range. We just found out that our counter offer has been accepted, so our house is sold pending inspection and money coming through. Since this is the third time around for us with a pending offer, it's hard to get our hopes up. Things should be moving along briskly, though. The buyers want to move in as quickly as possible--July 9. I will start thinking about packing up and thinning things down even more now. I'm also looking at ads for townhouses in Seattle. There are some nice ones available that make it exciting to think of moving. The weather is supposed to change this weekend. Maybe then the greyness will lift off my mind.
