I want all of you to know that we have canceled our offer to buy the house in Eden. The reason? We want to sell our Bountiful house before we buy another one ... so we're going to do just that. I know mom is a bit disappointed but I also know she was and is, as concerned as I am about being over committed. We're still going to buy a cabin it is just going to take a little longer.

I am relieved to hear that. I know that you all were having doubts and concears about the house.
I agree. I hope things work out for the best! When you sell the house will you have time to find one before you have to move out or will you move back to AZ and put your stuff in in storage until you buy another place in UT?
I'm sure everything will fall into place when the timing is right. Good Luck!
I don't know why Dad thinks I am disappointed--I have been concerned about buying a house without selling this one because we have avoides being in debt during our mariage. The housing market is awful right now and it has never seemed right to me to buy another house. Besides, I have tenaciously hung on to this house. I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED! I feel bad for Dad because he seemed to really want this house--maybe we should communicate better.
I'm sure you will find exactly what you are looking for when the time is right.
who knows after you visit Kris in Maine you may buy a cabin there :-)
Even though it may have been hard letting go of the earnest money, I am relieved to hear this as well. For some reason it didn't feel right to me, but of course, it was never my business to begin with.
We're still coming for Christmas no matter where you live! You are always welcome to come and enjoy the green pines and lakes in Spokane. Lana
Thanks for all the encourging words.
We didn't lose our earnest money by the way but I was more than willing to lose it so I could gain peace of mind ... besides it was mom's money anyway :-).
FYI the reason I waited so long to make up my mind was not wanting to disapoint everyone. Turns out that everyone had reservations about what we were doing; sounds like more than me.
By the way, it's nice not caring whether we sell the Bountiful house anytime soon. If it sells fine ... if not life goes on .............
I did learn an important lesson through all of this ... don't get the cart in front of the horse (or house in this case) and that, I'm loved in spite of some of the crazy things I do.
Love you too,
Dad
