kitchen knobs, chicken kabobs.

so when the realtor called last night to let us know they wanted a second showing, we asked if there was anything she felt we could do to improve the house to their liking.  (read: hello -- ready to sell this house).  of course, her only suggestion was to change all the kitchen knobs.

we knew that no one like our kitchen knobs and we had already ordered new ones.  but they hadn't arrived and God only knows how long it will take for them to get here.  so we continued on our cleaning way, hoping for the best, and happy with whatever happened -- at least we got a second showing.

when i woke up this morning, i was ready to go.  i'd barely slept at all the night before and i was ready to get this show on the road.  let's go, let's go, let's go!  i walked out the bedroom door, took a left towards the kitchen, and as i walked past the front door, there was a package on the doorstep.

kitchen knobs, chicken kabobs!

they were here!  the kitchen knobs made it on time!  they were here! they were here!  they were here!  so we spent this morning changing all the kitchen knobs before taking on last wlak through of the house and moving things around to stage a little differently.  after a little while, we were done.  we actually walked out of the house fifteen minutes before we had to.  now that is skill.

when we got home, we discovered it was well worth it.  as the family was leaving our house, the wife leaned into our realtor and said, "i want this house.  now i just have to go home and beg!"

so much for yesterday's disappointment!  i'm so excited for the potential this situation has!  wooot wooot woot!  let's sell this sucka.
