Another day goes by

Well we got closer than ever today, and still did not close. We were told that as long as the documents were at the title company by noon, we would close today. This time, the documents made it out of the bank and to the attorney's office. By late-morning the papers had been cleared to go on to the title company so we could close. However, there is one (and only one, apparently) person in the attorney's office that handles sending completed files to title companies. She decided to leave for an early lunch today (without sending our file) and didn't come back. No one there knew where she went and they couldn't track her down until well after 1:00. By the time she got everything sent to the title place, they said it was too late to get everything ready and that there was no way we could close today.

We are scheduled for 11 in the morning. I'm not holding my breath anymore.
