Well, I bet few people had our problem.  We were packed to move, and the
people buying our house backed out at the last minute, even with a $10,000
deposit.  It turns out that the people buying their house dropped out at the
last second because prices were falling so fast it was worth losing their
earnest money.  Since our contract had a condition that they sold their
house, and since our real estate agent kept giving us false good news, we
were stuck.  We had to unpack from the move to show the house in a day, and
then repack a couple of months later.
