I'm just a debbie downer.
POOF!
Re: I'm just a debbie downer.
Barb, I am so sorry. I can understand when it feels like nothing is going right. We are here for you, hon. And I am not too far from you. Let me know if you need anything.
:::Big hug!!::: I'm sorry you're feeling so bummed out! I know when my one boss was buying a short sale house it took him like 5-6 months to get it all cleared and done, and the bank was the biggest PITA possible. I totally feel you on wanting to just get into your dream house and enjoy it, I don't even have a prospect of a dream house :-P
I think it's totally ok to have some time to feel just plain crappy about stuff, then just pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get yourself back on track feeling positive. Those positive vibes will go a long way, and I'm sending you some for your house, baby vibes, and your silly brother to call you. And yes as the other girls said, we are always here for you!

Don't ever feel like you can't post!!! Oftentimes we don't really *need* each other when things are good and hunky dory, it's the hard times that you need to reach out - and that's okay!
I totally agree with Allison that this is just one of those crappy times in life when nothing seems to go right, and somewhere around the corner will be the time when things fall into place. Just try to hang in there until then - and you can always talk to us!!
I'm sorry your DH doesn't "get it" - I get frustrated too when mine doesn't understand why something is so incredibly frustrating for me, and for him it seems like he's just "eh, it'll be okay." Must be nice to feel that way, huh? Anyway that's what your girlfriends are for
((HUGS))
We've all had those times (and will likely have them again)...vent all you need to!!!
Ugh, the nest just ate my whole post, I will try this again
I am so sorry that you are dealing with all of this. I know it is hard, but the bad will be replaced by the good eventually.
I am sure that your dad calling your brother is because he is probably a bit freaked out about your brother deploying, he wants to get as much time in now just in case. It is not that he does not want time with you, but he just feels that right now he really needs to be sure to get in a lot of time before the deployment.
And I completely understand about your husband not always getting your feelings, my husband is not a big feelings guy, and sometimes even though I know that he cares, the lack of understanding can make me feel more alone somehow. But he really does love me, just like your DH loves you, some guys are just not great at knowing how to deal with certain things.
Like Rachel said, we need each other the most in our down times, so we are always here for you.
(((Hugs)))
