I know you understand. I can't over burden St. Joseph! But I'll bury a cat whisker under a shade tree or any other rituals you know of!

It makes the house smell like cookies and "home". The more you STAGE your house to perfection the faster it will sell.<br /><br />I have owned four homes and sold three. The first one was in a slow market but sold. The second one sold in a week and the third one sold in two weeks.<br /><br />Also I bought a tiny st joseph statue which you are supposed to bury upside down in the back yard to sell a house. That sounds horrible. So I bought one and promised to display the statue where I would see it every single day. (I have one on my kitchen windowsill and one on my bed side stand).<br /><br />Good luck you can do IT!karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252685705241032079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-13870955354757313762016-05-29T06:41:13.704-05:002016-05-29T06:41:13.704-05:00Moving is the most stressful thing to go through. ...Moving is the most stressful thing to go through. Keep your eye on the goal and schedule less showings. If they are interested, they will wait. The poncho knitting will help, too.<br />Cut back on the 'dinners' , too; they are coming to see the house not to eat if they are serious. Be easier on yourself.Delighted Handshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01289187765260532813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-90785356704155908102016-05-28T23:11:40.539-05:002016-05-28T23:11:40.539-05:00I really like that poncho!

It was very challenging with all my pets and the horse but it was all worth it. Hang in there.

Over the years we have had many houses come and go and I can tell you it doesn't matter whether you are on the buying or selling end of the deal, it's not easy. Two of my mother's favorite sayings came to mind when I read your post, "One foot in front of the other," and "This too shall pass." Doesn't help much does it? Anyway, I'm praying for you and thinking peaceful thoughts for you.Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06450679959206351852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-49710660130565699032016-05-28T19:18:48.587-05:002016-05-28T19:18:48.587-05:00I have sold many houses -- but not with cats.

It sounds like your area is much like it is here now with people in bidding wars, and some actually paying cash. Hang tough, Kath. You'll get through it. Wish you'd head out this way! But lots of luck wherever you land. BTW, having met you in person, I don't think of you as a pretend friend! You're as real as they come!!!Judy S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05591607125583963544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-88890782223679704682016-05-28T17:50:48.955-05:002016-05-28T17:50:48.955-05:00New adventures!

I would like to move yet again because our house we live in now is much to big for just the two of us. My dream is a small house on a few acres in the countryside. Houses are selling very, very fast around here right now. The problem is, the houses I want sell just as fast! Your poor kitties. I hope you don't have to have many more showings as they are so stressful for everyone, man and beast.

I feel as real a friend to you as anyone. :-) Next.. why are you selling your house? We need more details! I can't imagine selling our old house.. we have a shed, garage, old barn, big new barn and a house full of stuff. I don't think we COULD move! LOL! But good luck on the showing thing.. I can't imagine. Sending you good thoughts to get you through it all. WHERE are you moving to? Goodness!

I used to work for a real estate agent and that's one of the things we always warned people about when showing houses. It gets the pets right riled, and it's easy for the little ones to slip out.Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-19628689995313594362016-05-28T13:30:16.435-05:002016-05-28T13:30:16.435-05:00Bless your heart Kathy, that is no fun at all.

We will be doing the same thing in a year or two, this house is getting too big for us, there is so much to do in it. Thank you for the acupuncture suggestion, I did that for about 12 years and now I just can't handle them anymore. I really need shots in my neck but have to jump through all of these ridiculous hoops to get them. How about moving to Florida closer to me?<br />Hugs,<br />Meredith Mereknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04596140300034854370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-19347511282398814332016-05-28T11:23:21.370-05:002016-05-28T11:23:21.370-05:00Kim

I carry his medal with me. My mom going to heaven is so much more important than the house selling. I can't ask both you know? Maybe St. Jude for the house, he was my confirmation Saint. :)kathy bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17534431969086721507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-158981849385001062016-05-28T11:10:23.286-05:002016-05-28T11:10:23.286-05:00Oh my ...............selling a house is stressful ...Oh my ...............selling a house is stressful no matter HOW you go about it.
