I am PRAYING super duper hard that your tentative turns into an affirmative! I ADORE those lights!
Anne,
I swear I had a dream last nigt that you posted 'It's Mine'!! So it's like 6 am right now & I check you blog right away. It's an omen. That gives you a holiday weekend! Lisa
PS Yes I'm doing Debra's party Friday, can't wait!
gosh i can not understand why professional people can't get there s**t together i feel so bad for you and your hubby i would be going postal!!
Tentative as in maybe, could be, we're not sure, yes and no, we'll see, we're covering our a$$, time will tell, we don't have a clue...that kind of tentative? GRRR!
I'm keeping positive thoughts heading your way...don't give up the ship...or house! Pretty sure that just the way banks roll nowadays!
Debbie
Glad to hear of the date. Best wishes.
I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you!
Oh Sweet Anne....I know how frustrating this can be so I am keeping fingers and toes crossed for you that this DOES happen on the 7th!
Love,
LuLu♥
Don't let them get you stressed and discouraged - it will happen! Hugs!
It will happen-I'm sorry you have to wait now through the weekend. Grrr they are frustrating and it makes no sense! I know it's impossible, but try to enjoy the weekend....this too shall pass!

Hi Anne:
Thanks for the update. I remember a time, long ago, in a far away land, when a bank was a trusted institution. Now...not so much. I'll say a prayer for you.
xoxo
Donna
I hope all goes well for you! Good luck and enjoy the holiday weekend!~Hugs, Patti
Hope it all works out , hard waiting !!
Eunice
I have crossed all my bits on this - again! I closed on my house on the 7th of September 3 years ago after weeks of hassling with the bank - I feel your pain! It will all be okay in the end
I cross my fingers for you and look forward to the good news!!!
Zaira xx
Oh, Anne! I'm so sorry this has been such a trial for you and your hubby! We went through something similar trying to get the land purchased for the house we built...won't go into details...but it just wrenches you, doesn't it???
Glad they gave you a date! It will happen this time, I'm sure! And then, before you know it, you'll be in the house you love for 5 years already (us!), and thinking how amazing that time really does fly.....
You'll be in my thoughts and prayers...hope your day is wonderful!
Julie
Praying for your "tentative" closing to be a positive closing date !!

GOOD LUCK!!!!
I was hoping for a "FINALLY!" post today, but since we're discussing THAT bank, I'm not really surprised. It's sad that they've messed up so many lives through their shoddy paperwork handling & business practices that the new Federal Guidelines they have to follow give them yet another reason to drag their feet. It STINKS for those of us that play by the rules. I'm surprised that they're not blaming the Title Company for closing issues yet...give 'em time.
More prayers going up for you, Anne.
♥hugs♥
keeping the fingers and toes crossed for ya!
Thats great news Anne!Im so happy for you.By the way I love the right sidebar pic of the door and the key,just lovely!
Happy Thursday!
Yay! That's a good sign! ~Lili
Anne.... You and Mr. Twig hang tough!
Your dream WILL come true, one way or another!!
Yay!! WooHoo!!
I will pray they keep to their word. Have a wonderful weekend!
Lisa
Anne, I hope you can enjoy a fun weekend with Mr. Twig. Then fingers crossed that Tuesday goes smoothly. Thinkig of you ~ Sarah
I'm crossing my fingers and my toes for you. Here's hoping that everything goes smoothly on the 7th and you can hold the keys in your hand to your new home.

Hi Anne,
I will be visiting your friend Debra for her parties. Thanks for the heads up. I had not seen her blog before but it is beautiful. As is yours! Have a wonderful day.

OMG! What the heck?? This really shows how things have changed! When I bought my current house 4 years ago, we were missing a very important document that my loan officer failed to tell us we needed. They were going to call off the closing, but told me as long as I "promised" to fax it the next week they would go ahead. Whaaaat? Can you even believe that? Mighty trusting on their part since it was an income-proving document from me (it really complicates things when you work for yourself). Now they want your first born child and your right arm.
Ugh.
I feel for you. But I have my fingers and toes crossed it will happen on TUESDAY! YIPPEEEE!
I swear I will stand up out of my comfy chair and do a happy dance for you when it finally happens. ;o)
~mary~
I know you can't hardly wait! I know I can't hardly wait to see what it all looks like when you get in there and put your stamp on everything! Good luck!
TOT
So glad.... I bet it will work this time.....
I hope that both of you survive this.....I know how stressful all of this can be.. I am looking forward to an invite for a tour....
Love ya
Effie
Well... I know you have been dealing with them WAY too long and frankly my dear, I don't think they deserve to finance your dream home! I would be tempted to tell them to take a hike:) Hope it works out for you and that you finally get to close. Keep the faith!
Love you bunches! Hugs from Ganky!
Great news, girly, I know it will happen, I'm so sorry you have been done this way. What if you had packed up your entire house and scheduled the move etc, etc.? Makes me wanna go bop someone in the head! Thanks so much for the advance news about the party tonight!
big hugs and love,
D
Oh, Fi, I am joining the prayer team and for the finality of the whole thing.. I know you expect only professional people to treat you the best but when these things happen you begin to wonder..
Hugs,
Maggey
Glad to hear there's finally a closing date. I'm sure you've been on an emotional roller coaster. Hang in there!
Hugs,
Nancy
~*~Im hoping and praying for you Fiona!!~*~Blessings,Rachel~*~
Hi Anne
Thanks so much for your encouragement and I am sorry to see you have been going through a tough time also. Buying a house is never easy, I don't know why but the banks always seem to come up with something. Have I ever told you how much I hate banks... :)
Service is lousy and they act like they do us such a big service by using our money! Anyway enough of grumbling, the only and I mean the only way to get through this is by turning it over to the Lord minute by minute... Prayers for you and...
Blessings my friend
Rebecca
I'm going through a refi on my building where my store is. I keep getting one date after another with NO definate date. Hey, at least you have a real date and I have a feeling you just might see it all come together on that day!!
Take care, Sue
It's gonna' happen....I know it is.

OMG...buying a home is probably 1 of the most stressful events of a persons life. We've bought 3 so far & everytime I say "Never again, my heart just can't take it"! They make you act like a circus dog jumping through all of their hoops. lol Crazy makin stuff, right!
The 1 hoop I remember the most was somewhere towards the end of the closing on our very 1st house they decided we didn't show enough savings in our acct. We needed to have $10,000 sitting in there to qualify. We were devastated! I had a wonderful friend who had just gotten a settlement & I had to ask her if we could borrow $10,000 until we closed to stick in our acct to get the house...that's alot of money. Thank God she said yes & for a short period of time in my life we appeared to have a savings. lol
OMG....I feel for you & know that the bucket of gold will be at the rainbows end for you very soon, but for now...just keep jumping!!!
Smiles,
Susie
Just think how wonderful it will all be when finished! We are in the middle of a re-fi and and I also getting definate tentative dates. Blessings and prayers!
Good luck on Tuesday!!

Sorry it's not going as planned. My hubby sells real estate and the "hoops" he and his clients go thru...YEP...it can be difficult. Keep the faith..it will close!
Deb :)
Hoping tentative becomes Reality! Good luck and we are here for you always!!
My word! This is hard to believe. I just don't trust them a lick anymore.
Brenda
Banks...ick, gag, puke! I've worked in new home construction for 10 years. They use to throw money at people, now they act like you are stealing it out of their pockets. Morons. They don't see that they are the major contributors to all that has happened, including me losing my job.
Sending happy thoughts your way that they will get their butts in gear and give good, hardworking people the money they deserve. :)

Still praying for you....think positive. And September 7th is my 6 month blog anniversary so I hope Lucky 7 Design brings you some luck!
I don't know why banks jerk their customers around at the last minute. It is so traumatic. Here's to peaceful thoughts and a successful closing September 7.
HI Dear Anne! Bless your little heart! Again! Good news is good though!
Your friend is really good at making pretty. Lovely pictures and displays.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Tentative means there is hope, hope leads us to dreams, and dreams become reality! Tuesday is just around the corner!! Cheers to you and dreams becoming a reality on Tuesday :)
Wendy
(P.S. 2 days before our tentative date!)
Best of luck. I sure hope things work out this time. Praying for things to go smoothly from here on out. Have a wonderful holiday weekend. Love & blessings from NC!
Have a great holiday weekend and I'm sure Tuesday will be great news for you! September 7th...Seven is always a lucky number! Fingers and toes crossed for you!
Hang in there, your tougher than those bankers! I was 9 mos pregnant and the bank put our money in the wrong account (some strangers!) and we were trying to close on a new home. They were screwing around on us so I staged a sit in. Try to visualize a nine month pregnant woman sitting outside the bank Presidents office waiting for them to correct their mistake.... it took awhile but it was taken care of before the baby arrived.
LOL, I was a feisty gal back then. We closed our account with them after that.So hang in there! Hugs Sharon
Many prayers that it all goes as planned! I am so sorry they are so awful!
Hugs,Lisa
I've been keeping up with your "non"developments and praying that something would give soon.
I've now got my sights set on Tuesday, my dad's b'day, and I will be waiting for that message that it's time to start making plans to PAINT!!
XXOO, Jan
Hi sweet Anne...I'm so, so glad you have a closing date girl!! I can't stand all of that legal junk...and banks ARE the devil but besides all that, I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers that this will be a done deal!!!! I can't wait to follow your progress in your new home sweet friend ~ and you know I love ya more than my luggage but after painting our new house, I don't believe I'll have the energy to paint yours cuz I WILL BE DEAD!
hugs and love, Dawn
