Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I'm begging prayers -- this was the fourth house we made an offer on, and our third contract (the first two fell through). We're supposed to close tomorrow at 2 p.m., and I won't be at peace until we have the keys in hand. Money/debt issues are an anxiety trigger for me, and I'm trying not to have a panic attack sometime in the next 24 hours. Thank you!

UPDATE: Closing has been delayed until Thursday or Friday because of a few last-minute snags, one of which means Chris and I have to drive to Roanoke tomorrow morning (8-hour round trip) to retrieve an *updated* VA Certificate of Eligibility. We may also have to get a power of attorney so that I can sign everything for Chris because of the schedule change. [We need an "I'm pulling my hair out" emoticon!] Please keep praying...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

UPDATE #2: We were supposed to close today (Thursday), but hit yet *another* snag half an hour before closing. We may be able to close tomorrow, but it will probably be Monday. At this point I am not holding my breath. In the grand scheme of things, this is really not a big deal, just a nuisance, and I feel like such a baby for being so stressed. Could you please pray for my dh and dc, who have to put up with me through all of this? Thank you!

Many prayers. We were in a very similar situation at our closing 2 years ago and prayers got us through!

Oh Wendy! Praying you through this one! Try to focus on the wonderful weekend you will all experience in just a few days with this all behind you and keys in your pocket.
