I am a control freak

This is not new information. I have always been a control freak. I like to know what is happening, why, when and be in control of those things whenever possible.
That makes buying a house one of the most stressful things ever!! John and I are in the process of getting approved by the banking/looking at houses/praying our offer is accepted and it is making me crazy! Because I can't control any of it, all I can do is sit and wait and try not to have a panic attack (side note: it is not going well).
I can't control how fast the bank processes our application or if the seller accepts our offer and I am not very good at being patient!
As another side note, my control freak ways did make the actual application process with the bank go very smoothly because I had all the documents I need printed out and ready to give the mortgage officer which made everything super easy and fast.
I know all this waiting will be worth it in the end but in the meantime I am going crazy!!
