~3-17-05~ It figures!!!!

yes my luck!!!! i should really know better!

well the realtor came over tonight to get our house up, well either monday night or yesterday sometime, someone else bid on MY house with a contingency!!!

it was accepted, so now they cannot accept 2 contingencies. i was so flippin pissed i just wanted to break down crying. i did good though.

he kept telling me not to worry, it didn't mean anything. well, i know my luck, and i just KNEW that this was going to happen!!!! i just rather it had been like a week or so before i put my house up, not 1 fucking day!!!!

now my only option is to hope that my house sells before the people who bid, and then i can still make and offer and pray they accept it. but hell i don't know what those other people bid. and you can't find out cause it is confidential.

and i was going to offer very LOW. at least start out low. i mean that house has been up since september!!!!!!!

i'm just very disappointed. and i know i kept telling myself if we don't get it, it wasn't meant to be, and that meant there was an even better house out there. so i am still looking....and NONE hold a candle to that one.

THE KITCHEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh the plans i had for that kitchen!!!!!!!!!!!

to top it all off, after he left, my child turned into satan child! my lord was he bad!!!!! maybe he sensed my being upset and was trying to get my mind off of it. but it sure didn't help!!! what did help was that he is so damn cute!


did i tell you all that he had a sty on his eye?! well that went away and looked great, but today he woke up and his eye was all pink!! what the hell?!?! i mean it didn't seem to bother him at all. he wasn't rubbing it, it wasn't runny....it was just red! so hell! i don't know if i should call the doctor or not. i DREAD taking him there. the last time i took him to the doctor's for his regular deal, he ended up SICK! all the freaking germs in that place.....i don't get what the point is of having a sick waiting room and a regular waiting room, there really isn't a wall or ANYTHING seperating anyone! we all use the same counter, and breathe the same air! i just don't want to take him for something minor like his eye, then get something worse! i'm gonna see what it looks like tomorrow and then decide.


the plumber is coming over tomorrow to start the work i want done. a good thing is that i was checking out the pipes down there and it looks like there is a hot, cold and drain capped off down there. which is perfect!!!!! now all he has to do is uncap them! woo-hoo, hopefully that saved me $600, he quoted me to do all of that.


and did i tell you all about the drywall deal?! i originally had planned for a bigger laundry room/half bath, but the guy i spoke with on the phone quoted me $1500!! NOT!!! so i called some other guy and he came out. i told him all we had to spend was between $500-600. so we made it a bit smaller, and he quoted me $650. so i called the guy on the phone back and gave him the measurments to see how much he would charge..........$1140!!!!!!!!! HELL NO! how is going from 8x20, to 5x12 plus NO door only less $360?!?! so needless to say i called the other guy back and told him to come as soon as he could to do his thing. it just sucks that he can't start it for 2 weeks!!


i stated on our listing of the house that we weren't showing it til the 4th. so hopefully everything will be done by then. hell i don't think we will have everything packed and stored by then! this shit sucks!!!! especially now that i have to FIND a damn house! it wasn't bad when i thought i already had one, and had one less thing to do. now i am afraid my house will get a bid, then i will have to find a damn house...and i don't want to be rushed!!!! and of course NO other houses are even appealing to me now. i want MY house damn it!!!!!


i'm sure i have some tv shows to bithc about, but as you can see, lately i have actually been in bed at a "some-what-decent-to-me" hour, so i need to get off here and get to sleep. if grandpa happens to show tomorrow, i'll write more in the morning. good-night!
