I am writing a letter that someone has proof read and told me the was in the sentance needs to be were, but it doesn't sound correct to me when I read it with were. I wanted a second opinion.

When the home study got to her from Pasco there was only about three days left before the background checks expired and it was Thursday afternoon before July 4th.
