oh patience

We've signed many documents and are under contract to buy the house - but the seller keeps listing it on craigslist. Maybe that's normal but it just makes me uncomfortable. The only delay we've come across has to do with the appraisal, which should be completed next week. I'm weary of the process and ready to put some space between us, lenders, and sellers.

The Mamavan Saga rolls on and on... The mouthpiece of the service department, Ken, tells me (when I pester him every other day) that "the parts are not all here yet," and "I've ordered the parts, hopefully they'll get here next Monday, then your car will be done the next day," and "we found a new problem we didn't notice at first so we had to order another part..." Puh-leeez.

5 eskimos will fit into a Ford Ranger but you won't see a smile on any of their faces. Especially not after 37 days.

Ford should loan you a car until yours is done. Cite safety concerns.
