January would have come and gone and we would be handing the keys back now on a house that would now be worth ?$1.4.

The future does not look good. If you watch Glen, then it looks atrocious.

Hope isn’t the problem though, it is a process of futile waiting. Hope keeps you going, NO change is the frustration.
The colostomy patients who have the hope of an anastomisation of their intestine live with expectation. It is expectation that is the most painful.

I have been waiting to buy my home, hope is fine in small doses, but reality may have been even more painful.

Those who have bought their home pre 2001 should just be grateful that no surgery was necessary in the first place and not be disappointed that the doctor refused to improve the cosmetic appearance of their abdomen.
