A Series of Unfortunate Events

I feel like we are characters in this series.  We lowered the price of our house substantially and immediately got an offer.  Then the buyers found water in the basement which has NEVER happened in the 8 years we lived there.  The pad is completely soaked but there is no sign of water anywhere else- the walls and ceiling are dry. That carpet was only 2 years old. Weird-- we really needed that house to sell to be able to afford this one.  We'll wait and see what happens.

Then church was CRAZY!!  Our ward is so big and growing weekly-- there were quite a few people who had to sit in the foyer it was so crowded- it takes about 30 min. to pass the sacrament to everybody--  we tried to figure out the seating for our primary program-- we have so many kids-- the chapel was practically full of our kids-- most the classes have 10-15 kids in them and there are 2 of every class except Sunbeams has 3 classes-- anyway-- it was CRAZY and nobody will be able to see the kids in the program because there will be nowhere to sit and there are so many kids that it is just impossible to get them all in a place where they can be seen.  Anyway- the worst of it is that after I picked up one of my 2 year old twins from nursery, he took off ahead of me and I couldn't call him back, get his attention or follow him because the hall was packed FULL of people I couldn't get around. My girls came up and I sent them after him, they came right back and had not seen him at all.  I told them to keep circling the church and I went outside-- a teenage girl was carrying him up the outside steps and told me she had found him in the MIDDLE OF THE ROAD outside.  There are just too many people for that building.  We are awaiting a split, but it keeps getting put off.  I'm not sure it's safe to take my little ones until the split happens. 

What's next?
