The sell continues, but we own some dirt now

Last week we had someone offer on our house it was cool, but not, because they offered $20,000 less than we were asking. We counter offered and they couldn't afford it. Then a few days later they can back with another offer because they had borrowed some money and this time it was a good offer so we accepted. We were under contract and set to be out of our house by March 25. Well that sell fell through because the people found out they were not going to qualify for the first time home buyer tax credit so we are back on the market. We had 2 showings the last 2 days and have 2 more Friday and Saturday. My house has never looked this good for this long and it is really wearing me out. I only have four to six more months that I have to keep doing this and then I can take my house off the market and hang out here for 2 to 3 more years at the most, unless I really get anxious to start building my new home. Why do I say that you ask? Well as of yesterday we are under contract to own a lot in West Jordan. We put an offer in last week. They counter offered on Monday and we accepted the offer yesterday and gave them our ernest money today. We are very excited!!
