Wednesday, So excited, so scared....

     It looks like the first offer and counter on the house was not excepted, so they are onto our offer, which is full price with a cash out so now I am scared and scared and  well scared.

    Hubs is not full on happy about the move, and I don't like that.  I think it is very important that when you are married to someone that on big decisions like buying a house, having another baby, purchasing large items, both of us should be square on. Unfortunately Hubs does have a real no change in my life condition so even moving a picture from one wall to another is trauma for him.  We need a smaller foot print and as he wants to get some toys to romp around in the woods we need someplace to store them.  This place has a one car garage, and a three car carport plus a huge cement pad to hold a trailer for said toys.  (Hey Sluggy is Dan up for another razzor ride?  We will check the weather this time)  I am putting my foot down and buying this house if possible. Also this is a much smaller yard and it is flat apposed to our 1/2 acre on steep levels.  Our taxes and water bill will go down, along with our heat.

     It will put us cash broke, which is scary for me, but I will work hard to replace this and we still have savings and more than enough coming in every month with our retirement and ssi.  Now we will still have a small cash savings, but not as much as we had before.

     If this goes through we still have to finish painting the house and the house is in no way show ready, so I am waiting to see what to do next.

     In the mean time Hubs is at the eye surgery place having his eyelids lifted.  He was approved for this by our insurance.  He is have trouble seeing with the skin that comes down over his eyelids.  He has also lost 20 lbs which probably does not help.  Do you have fat under your eye lids?

     I made masks yesterday and I have two wedding dresses due out Friday, as it is really rainy out I have no excuse not to sew.  I need to go through the house with hubs and start making it show ready.  I will make Lil sis come over this weekend and help me with a few painting items in the kitchen.  We also need to do major cleaning in the yard as we have not been allowed to take anything to the land fill dump, during lock down.  They are not open so I foresee a major dump run in my future.  Plus we have to really clean out the garage.  Yikes, I am getting anxiety just thinking about the work involved.

     The surgery center just called and Hubs is ready for pickup.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
