I just got an email from my realtor...Here is what happened. Some people want to buy my house. (Yes, the ones my neighbors harrassed!) But there is a catch. Apparently, when the woman was in Jaden's room, he (bless his heart) told her all about how he had three snakes but the largest one is missing somewhere in the house. Well, apparently this woman is deathly afraid of snakes. She refuses to make an offer until she knows what happened to Merle.
I have had a heat lamp and pinkies around the house for weeks. No sign of merle. I think she may have went into hibernation in the AC vents or headed for the heat outside. So, finding Merle isn't much of an option.
I really really need to sell my house because Escrow closes on my new house August 13th. I cannot really afford two house payments at once.
Soooo, I need to make up a lie.
I was thinking about saying that Merle died and we didn't have the heart to tell Jaden. But then, I feel like that'll jinx me.
Or maybe tell her that we sold Merle to make room at the new house and didn't have the heart to tell Jaden.
Or what?!I am not good at this stuff. What should I say?
