Silence

Pissed off at people. We worked our ass off from 8 until 1pm just to have the showing cancelled. BUT on the plus side the house is immaculate? I mean like eat of the floors clean. Oh well. Less that has to be done next time. We've just got to sell this house. Dropping the price on Friday if need be.

Had leftovers for dinner. Took doggo for a walk around 9:30.

We made a big decision yesterday. We were laying out how things might look in the new house. Furniture, design, etc. We have decided no tv in the living room. Only one in the guest room for C's dad. We honestly both had a "can we do this?" moment when we decided. Like yeah, screw it. Upstairs is for living, downstairs is for media. We're going to have audio up and down, but no tv up. We will have a tablet in the kitchen, but that's it. Curious to see how this goes.

Scream. Bad. Since 3:20am.

I am not functional right now. I have been up and down for 3 hours. Not happy. People coming to look at house Saturday. Too much to do.

Still quiet.

So...

We bought a house. 182. Up 7 from my offer, down 7 from the listing. Everyone wins. Now begins the hard part. Selling ours, packing, and moving. Almost 8 years I have lived here. Time to start new memories and new chapter. I think we're going to be happy in the new house. We shall see. I am knocking 90k off my mortgage debt so that makes me happy. House is almost the same size. Different neighborhood for sure. 8 miles from work. BIG ass kitchen. I am excited and terrified at the same time.

Silent for now. Yesterday's didn't last. It came on when I was throwing up from my meds. They ripped my stomach up. Hopefully no repeat of that today.

Worked on my database. Made dinner. Took Sandy to vet. Soft tissue sprain. She's on bed rest.

Finally silence.

Also finally cool weather. Slept with the windows open last night for the first time in months. Felt good. I need a sweater this morning.

Happy birthday to one of my oldest and dearest friends.

Went to urgent care yesterday. Got antibiotics for the cyst on my back. Did laundry. Kept the dog as inactive as possible to help her llimp. Hoping to get into doctor today. Made pork tenderloin for dinner. Watched a documentary. Had a good Sunday. C's work schedule is fucked because of the upcoming holiday. So she has to work today. Bullshit.

Still nothing on the house.

Silence so far

I have a bump on my back. Going to urgent care at 9:30am to see what the hell it is. Did laundry yesterday day. No news on anything.

Screaming. Day 6.

Put another offer in on a house. Hoping to hear about it. Listed ours. Got my database at work. Huge milestone on my project. Going to build it out starting Monday. Friend came over, made pizzas together. Had nice night. Laundry and packing today.

Screaming. Yesterday's silence didn't last either. Turned into scream about an hour in.

My realtor is taking me on a video tour of a house at 11, I told him I am not driving this weekend. But this might be a solid one. It's a flip, and I know what they bought it for back in April. They are looking to make a quick buck and get out. I am having him check specific things and if it passes, we offer low. 

I finally got past a major work hurdle yesterday. I am getting a database today. That changes everything. I am excited to get it all setup.
