Delay in Escrow

We are one day behind in the closing of escrow. First of all, we had to deal with the nightmare of a landlady. Secondly, the home insurance agent was out of the office and didn't send in our paperwork. Lastly, the earthquake knocked down the phones and fax lines at the title company. So instead of getting the last loan documents signed yesterday, we will *hopefully* do it today and send it back in. We are stressing and hoping we close on Friday, August 1st, and not Monday or Tuesday. Who wants to pay the interest on a whole month if you don't have to?
