Feel like giving up...

I woke up this morning feeling very down.  I have been trying to be optimistic and positive about this house situation.  I did not sleep well last night, went to bed about midnight, woke up at 2:30, went back to bed in the spare bedroom about 4:30 and woke up about 6:30...no wonder I feel crappy.  I should head out and run a couple errands, no energy, no money..just depressing.

We had a couple come through on Sunday...they own a home south of Salt Lake in Pleasant Grove, also a home a few blocks from here in the same area of our city called Green Spring.  There is a really nice golf course and within Green Spring there are several developments.  We are in Green Spring Heights, there's Las Entradas, Monte Verde, The Links, Silverstone and Northbridge, I think that's it.  Anyway, the first 3 all share the same HOA clubhouse.  We pay $75 a month and get our cable tv with it so not a bad deal. the clubhouse has tennis courts, fitness center, indoor and outdoor pools and a community room.  Ok so Las Entradas and Monte Verde share the same stuff, only their HOA is around $250 a month...the lots there are connected, meaning no walls or fences.  small.  smaller homes for the most part.  They do get their lawns mowed, not sure about the cable tv.  We are on city streets so our street maintenance is covered by the city, the other ones I spoke of are private so I guess all that HOA fees go toward street maintenance.  This couple have a home in Monte Verde so the man was very happy to hear how low our HOA is.  Not sure if both homes are for sale or what.  Supposely they LOVE it (where have I heard that before) and told our agent they want to come back and take pictures.  that was Sunday, today is Wednesday so I am guessing they changed their mind.  Another 'live one' down the tubes.

We have done all we can to the house to make it saleable.  We just lowered the price by $20,000.  Can't do any thing else.  I would say since we put the house on the market in Sept. it has been shown 20 times.  At least.  Wouldn't you think someone would take an interest in it.  Well we had that one in Feb that offered us $125,000 under our asking, they don't count cuz they were idiots.

Well, I am just venting I guess....feeling lost and maybe we should just give it up.  We do need to sell it, we cant afford to stay here.  I just want out, I have no happy memories here, just stress and unhappiness.  I want to start over fresh with my husband in a home we love.  I never loved this home, but it worked for us and the parents, but they are now back in PS.

sorry I am rambling...maybe my mood will improve, I hope.  I hate feeling like this....I can't even cry.

Thanks for listening
