I Love Citi!


Subject: BROWN SS APPROVAL 124 DEER PARK


MAKE SURE FULL ARMS LENGTH, FINAL SIGNED HUD AND WIRE CONFIRMATION COME
STRAIGHT TO ME UPON CLOSING TO EMAIL OR FAX 866 421 4408

I know that my frustration with my inability to break through to some sort of resolution personally with Citimortgage might have jaded my former posts. With a lot of help from an experienced realtor, a patient buyer, and a full moon, we received some good news today.

Chatting with an old friend (he was kind), I was struck at how jaded and judgmental I was feeling towards an institution. What a waste of time. Today I am grateful that Citi didn't take its time approving our short sale. We will move by June 4th, unless something changes. Nothing is a sure thing.

It is amazing how one can be lead by her feelings!   Today, I feel fine, like I weathered a small storm. Thinking about it, nothing has changed.

Now, to find some boxes, a place to live, and a new plan.
