Cosmic thing or what?

We haven't had a single showing since the day after we received an offer on our house. Not a single showing. Cosmic or what? Or is our agent lying to us about showing the house as a pending sale. I just don't get it.
Either way, I am trying my best to believe this is all working out for the best case scenario as possible. Our new house won't be completed until the middle or end of Dec anyway so I guess we don't even want an offer until October or November.
Frustrating, scary, tiring, bouts of hopelessness. On good days I stand firm in faith and the other days I am numb.
The hardest issue to overcome is not knowing we can trust anyone. We don't truly know what is going on with our agent and unfortunately he has revealed enough to question his true motives. We know it is more about his paycheck than our well being. And that goes for everyone in the industry. Deep breath.
I suppose I would be that way too if it were my job. I've spewed enough.

It's a poop day

I'm not kidding. My three year-old went potty like a big girl and locked the bathroom door. I knocked and asked if she needed help. She said no. You might think you know where this story is going. Well, it really wasn't anything she did. I had noticed the toilet water was extra low so I thought I would take that opportunity to clean it before I plunged it to get the water level up. Only I forgot about it and she took care of her potty herself, which then with over flushing caused a big mess. I managed to get everything sprayed to disinfect and then my son had a blow out.
All of this happening while I am packing up Summer clothes and shoes for both kids and washing to put away the new sizes and cooler weather clothes. By the time I got them down to nap, I still needed to empty my sons diaper pail, stinking to high heaven, which I forgot.
Here I am taking a break from everything thinking about how I still need to clean the bathroom, change loads and put away all these clothes before going to work tonight.
Ugh! Mama said there'd be days like this.

Ups and Downs

Today is a down. We had an offer on Friday night and the first thing we did was ask for the lenders letter of approval. By Sunday, with the encouragement of our agent we hesitantly accepted the offer. Monday came and went with no lender letter of approval, no inspection scheduled and Tuesday brought more of the same. Tuesday we met with the builders who had the lot we wanted and we signed a purchase agreement to begin with them. Wednesday at 5:15 we learned our buyers lost their approval due to what they claim is fraud and now we are back to impatiently waiting for showings and offers.
I believe with everything in me that our home will sell in time for us to still move into our new home. I believe that. But we are back in the swamp of "unknowns" and all I can do is hope. Have faith and wait for more to be revealed. Always a lesson in how truly powerless we are. Faith and hope. Faith and hope. That we have been guided and are still being guided by our God in our thoughts and action regarding this life change for us. He already knows who will live in this house. He already knows the timing of all things. He already knows and it will be revealed and occur according to his grand plan, his will, not mine.
Thank God in Heaven for his power and knowledge that all things may come together for the good of those who believe.
I want to be sad, but how can I? I began this journey believing the peace I felt in such a decision was divinely provided by Him who knows all things. So what is there to be sad about, it just taken a different course than I expected, it's not over, it's just different.
