Dazed and Confused

It's no wonder that RL doesn't know what to do to help us because we must be some of the most confusing clients she has ever had.  The problem is, we don't know what we want.  We thought we did, when we put our house on the market.  But the problem is that what we want is not for sale right now. 

Hey, did you know it's a sellers market?

Anyway - there is one neighborhood we like in Stepford*.  In that neighborhood there are 6 houses for sale; 2 are above our price range, 2 are in our price range but we don't like them, and 2 are foreclosures. So, if we expand our search we are faced with crippling questions such as:

• What are the school districts we are willing to send our kids to?
• Would we move into a non-acceptable school district and look into private school?
• Would we live farther away from work for a good school district and a nice house?
• Would we live in a less nice house to be close to work and in a good school district?
• Would we settle for a bad lot if it was a nice house?
• Would we settle for a bad house if it was a nice lot?
• Is it really that big of deal to go into temporary housing?
• How temporary is temporary?
• Why did we sell our house again?
• Would we even be sad if our house sale fell through?

Mr. Molly and I are truly dazed and confused.  So if you see us, please don't ask "How's the house hunting going?" or "Are you homeless yet?" or "Do you need any boxes?" because I will just stare at you with crazy eyes.
