After seven months on the market with not so much as a nibble, we finally got an offer on our Virginia house in February. (If you were following the Welcome thread on the Hidden Treasure forum, then you know I am convinced this was due to the Blessed Mother's help)

The closing is set for Thursday the 15th, yippee!! I would love your prayers for everything to go smoothly, with no last minute surprises. It will be such a relief to have this behind us!

I am praying daily for all of you who are trying to sell a house...I know what a burden it can be.

You got 'em, Lissa.
I'm so happy for all of you.

Wonderful, Lissa! It must be an enormous relief to have an end in sight. Praying that the Blessed Mother and good St. Joe will be watching over the closing for you.

I know all about closings and what can happen -- I will certainly start a novena to St. Joseph for you and the family that this all goes well and no problems arise.

Boy do I empathize, Lissa. I'm praying for the dullest, most uneventful closing ever.

Love,

Praying here, Lissa, for the boring, on schedule closing of your dreams.

BTW, can you post a link to your listing? I would love to see the place that I pictured you for so long. Actually, I guess I don't need the listing, just a pic
