How do I spell STRESS?

J-u-s-t-k-i-l-l-m-e-n-o-w

A-q-u-i-c-k-b-l-o-w-t-o-t-h-e-h-e-a-d-w-i-t-h-a-h-e-a-v-y-b-l-u-n-t-o-b-j-e-c-t

A-r-s-e-n-i-c-a-n-d-h-e-m-l-o-c-k-c-o-c-k-t-a-i-l

There are plenty of ways... of course living in TN the locals prefer to induce stress and it's wonderful side-effects by:

  • pulling funding a week before a home closing
  • having the second lending company claim they're having a "computer glitch" 2 days before the home closing thereby NOT providing any information to me or the title company
  • second lending company say, "We need ANOTHER appraisal" before we'll lend to you, cause the one we already paid for apparently isn't good enough
  • delaying the home closing by 4 days, thus screwing up the seller's move out schedule so he's still living there

And my personal favorite:

  • canceling the homeowner's insurance BEFORE the closing but having the notice delivered to the house I don't yet own, so I don't receive the notice until $^&*!@#% Christmas Eve - when, by the way, the seller was kind enough to let us stop by to show the place off to the in-laws and thus provide us with the happy news of "You're SCREWED - AGAIN!" via sealed letter. No Mr. Insurance Agent, please don't call us with this type of news as we'd prefer to get it in a letter 8 days before the insurance expires.

Happy Holidays!

Now where the hell is my hemlock?
