The house we were trying to buy isn't going to happen. It was nearing foreclosure and though we made a (full price, I might add) offer, the bank has decided to go ahead and foreclose on the house anyway. Of course, they couldnt tell us this immediately, it took them a week.

The problem is that we are staying in this apartment short term--as in, we signed a three month lease that is up at the end of this month. It is already November 6th and we are at square one as far as house hunting goes. We are headed out tomorrow and absolutely have to put an offer on a house even if we don't find a great one. We won't even discuss if another house falls through because of a horrible inspection or just one of those things that sometimes happens in house deals.

Needless to say, I am freaking the hell out...

I've been in knitting panic mode. I worked about four inches on the firestarter cuff and started Munchkin's Turkey Butt Hat for her Thanksgiving trip up to Wisconsin (pattern is actually the Chicken Viking Hat but I'm knitting it a darker brown and I'm going to add those little white things that go on turkey cuffs--anyone know what those are called??).

Anyone want to bet on whether or not I'll finish it tonight while I sit up, unable to sleep?
