The girls have 21st century paper dolls – these use plastic clothes that cling to the dolls by static. You with me? Think Disney Princesses with cling-on clothes. (I know – Klingon Clothes is funnier). ANYWAY, I’m changing Saralyn’s diaper today – at the AAA office where we were getting passport photos made – and [...]

7 Houses. That’s how many separate properties we have made offers on over the last 18 months. How many of those houses did we get? None. We are back offering on the little cabin in the woods. Again. Third time. 4th Realtor. New price. Bank owned. Let me sum it up – we are offering [...]

Rejection

He who owns Potential House called last night and rejected our offer. Not even a counter offer was offered. He looked at our ridiculously low offer and said, “We can’t afford to take a loss right now.” Who can afford to take a loss ever? However. They are smoking crack to think that they will [...]

Well – I’m stressed. You? Throwing caution to the wind, Tony and I went ahead an made an offer on the Potential House. It’s weird to bid on a Buy Owner house. I had to find a form myself and fill it out to make the offer, and then I went over to the sellers [...]
Roseola

I think Saralyn has Roseola. She’s had the fever that comes for three days then goes. Now she has the rash. From what I’ve read, that’s the pattern and it is the #1 cause for fever in children between ages 9 and 12 months. Elly had the fever a week ago and the incubation time [...]

Me and the electronics are gonna throw-down in the exercise yard. I’ve killed three computers, a cell phone and a squirrel in the last 6-weeks or so. I’m telling the judge NOT GUILTY by reason of incompetence. I didn’t mean to be the end for any of these devices. The first victimwas my office computer. [...]
Square One

There will be no new house for us. To sum up, there were some issues of the neighbors and them encroaching on the property, the strong disapproval of my father (who has many a shabby property that he’s patched up on the thrift, so he knows some cheap workmanship when he orders sees it), and [...]
We found a house.
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged bids, House hunting, real estate, Realtor on September 6, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I didn’t think it was going to be like this. We’ve found a nicer than we expected house in a good neighborhood with the right school district for less than we wanted to pay. About 25K less. We kept asking the Realtor if the house was haunted or something. She says there is no check [...]

Well, we went. And the theme of the day was NEW. First thing this morning, we went to Eleanor’s new preschool. It was nice. They really seem to have worked out this whole takin’ care of little ones thing. I’m now the mother I have always dreamed of being. I even have a hang tag [...]
