The Watched Laptop Screen Never.....

I am not sure how to end that!  I know it is 'the watched pot never boils' but I am not sure how to adapt it to watching the computer screen, refreshing every few mintues, just to see if an email or two come in.

Why?

Today is the day we wire the money for the new house.  It has to be done prior to closing, and since closing is Monday, it needs to be done today.

I have not done anything like this before.

I have never had this much money in my account before either.

It makes me nervous.

One thing is I really dislike being caught in the realm of someone else having to do something before I can.

For instance I need the email from the title company to send to the bank so they can process the funds and wire them. For me to have the email it has to be sent to me.  I have contacted our realtor several times,  She  has contacted the necessary people.  The emails have been sent, she has been told.  However, they have not been received.  Why?  Turns out the email address she gave them had a missing character and the emails were not going through.  In the meantime Karen is asking where the emails are so she can process the action needed.  I can't sent them to her until I receive them and there is nothing I can do about it until the people on the other end do what they need to do.

It's something like not being able to lay the carpet until the work is done on the ceiling and the cabinets and that can't be done until something else happens and the carpet people are ready. 

Stress.  And all of it is out of my control.

Geesh!

In the meantime I guess I can enjoy looking at our balances in our savings and checking accounts for a while longer.  All that will change soon....maybe.

Back to watching the laptop screen.....
