- Got two contracts on the house in the same week.
- Signed one that was contingent first.
- Got the non-contingent second and kicked the first girl out.
- I felt bad, but who puts their house on the market AFTER they find the house they want to buy...I think that's weird, but everyone has their "tried and true method."
- We have our inspection for our house today and we're going to do a walk-through on the property we want to buy as well.
- I can't wait to see it again, but I also don't want to get my hopes up again.
- We are just not as psyched since getting screwed.
- Since there has been a lot to do around here, I am feeling some guilt.
- The Crazies have been watching a good amount of TV lately so I can just get.things.done.
- They are so interested in everything and have so many things they want to "help" with, but I just need time to finish things and stash shit that I don't want potential buyers to see.
- They don't get it, but I feel bad.
- They are happy with TV, but I am not.
- I know it's temporary, that their brains won't rot over a few weeks, but I'm a good mother, but I just wish they weren't sitting in front of the boob toob.
- Does anyone else call it the boob toob?
- Our vacation to OBX was incredible...we're thinking maybe 2 weeks next year (I wish...).
- Still debating kindergarten next year.
- School starts for the Crazies tomorrow. I'm excited.
- I've graduated to doing photo books for our "life events." Does that make me a bad person that I don't want a million pictures around (or in my case, sitting in their envelopes with empty photo albums sitting next to them taunting me)?? Oh, and scrapbooking??? Fuhgeddaboudit!
- Our neighbor across the street has been awesome helping take care of Dog while we're doing showings and going away and having inspections. Thank God...I don't know what I would do otherwise.
- Thinking about getting a new car amidst all of these other changes. Not because I just want one, but b/c Husband's is about to hit 200K and it might die soon. I know I'd die if I traveled 200K.
- Feeling guilty b/c I'm not working and all of the financial burden is on Husband.
- Also feeling guilty b/c if I don't send the Crazies to kindergarten next year, it will just be another year of him shouldering all of the finances.
- I want to go back to work, but it will depend on what their teachers say this year.
- I do miss adult relationships that don't center around Mom's Night Out, going to the gym, what's on sale at the grocery store, and wondering how some Moms are so skinny.
- Although, I wonder if my brain has melted while I've been on this hiatus.
- Maybe I don't feel as guilty about things as I thought I did...maybe it's just the television. Maybe it's just today. Maybe I'm being too hard on myself. Maybe I still need my blog to be my therapist!!!
