Well, that settles that

Yesterday was a beautiful day as far the weather was concerned so I decided to putz around in the front yard weeding and watering my flowers after we picked Iz up from my mom’s. As I was watering I noticed our neighbor across the street and decided to be friendly and see how things were [...]


Goodbye glass, melancholy sighs

Don’t you love the dramatic title?
You know, whilst medicated I do a damn good job staying on the positive side of the fence. I know I like to complain and be a smartass about things but on the whole, I roll with the punches anymore. Maybe it’s age or maybe it’s better living through chemistry. [...]


I’m beat

Ugh. Last week sapped my energy and I’m still trying to catch up. We had something going on every day and add to that taking my mom to the ER Wednesday last week and then again to the doctor this past Monday and you have an exhausted mess in me.
I’ll start on a nice note [...]


I’m an idiot who is going to hell

I hadn’t heard anything from the builder about my revisions so I thought I’d email him to see what was up (not that I’ve been in any hurry to do anything for reasons I’ve discussed before). I went back through my Sent folder to find the email I sent him at the beginning of the [...]


1 in 54

That’s the amount of homes in foreclosure in my state. 1 in 54–up 30% from last year. The country’s average? 1 in 250-something (or something close to it). This scares me for good reason. I don’t know if it’s so wise to build because of the housing market and that makes me sad. I was [...]


Cloning is good

I’m ready to lose my lunch over the fact that I seem to be getting very little done at my mom’s and we need to get it listed and in shape to show. We got a copy of the first CAD draft of the house and while it needs some tweaking, it wasn’t bad. I’ve [...]


Builder Meeting

After much dawdling, I contacted the builder so we could get together and move forward some more with the house plans. He came by yesterday. We were supposed to close on the lot on the 25th but I knew there was no way we would make the date. It’s not a big deal because he [...]


More planning

Monday we have an appointment with the builder to discuss moving on with design. This means we’ll be getting into the nitty gritty of things to submit to the city both to close on the property and to get our building permit. After that it’s on to putting my mom’s home up for sale. The [...]


Exhausted

I’m so fucking tired I can’t stand it. My sleep study isn’t until later this month and after that it could be a month and a half before I get any relief from a CPAP. I’m tired as hell when I get up and I don’t think I can ever remember waking up refreshed. Today, [...]
