Holy Invasion

The duplex that we live in is currently up for sale. While I know these kinds of things happen all the time and I may not be the only on the planet going through this... but I feel invaded.
The duplex is actually owned by a family member of mine so for a couple less bucks a month we are helping to "manage it". All good and fine. Until now.
Between the plumbers, electricians and realtors it is no longer my place of residence. However it has become every hanymans garbage dump. I have pipes, screen doors, electrical boxes, poles, sinks and you name it left behind like I am a packrat of odds-n-ends.
We had a Open House today so my husband and I have been slowly picking up and doing that little bit of extra cleaning throughout the week. You know, wiping down the cabinets and FINALLY taking that little vent off the bottom of the refrigerator and attacking it with bleach. Last night ended with a mad dash of cleaning and this morning we were desperatly adding on the final touches of a house that no one could resist to buy.
We pack up our handy-dandy stroller with a mountain of occupying Bubba fun stuff and headed out for a couple hours while everything I own was being eyed and judged. When we had the all clear to come home I was very upset to find out that no. one. came. anyways.
Holy Mother of Christ! (As my husband would say.)
Selling a duplex doesn't happen in one Open House BUT ours has been on the market for over 6 months now. It is a great place, spacious with the best lawn on the block. I don't even think there is anything else to make better!
Pfft... maybe its all the "leftover crap" in the basement and garage. Anyone need some junk?

I'm sorry no one came!! that stinks! Unfortunately it's a buyers market now which means there's more houses for sale than buyers looking. I hope it sells soon for you! (and for a good price!)
