Something else
I thought for sure, once we got in this house, we would stop talking about the process. I am amazed at how consuming the whole thing is. I don't ever care to move again, except for the dream of a rural monastic community, nothing ever would make me want to go through all this again any time soon, soon being at least 20 years. Old house not sold - lord have mercy. Now there is nothing to help camouflage the little mistakes that need fixing. Nothing a little elbow grease, some fresh paint and new carpet won't fix. I got some carpet remnants yesterday to install myself to make the rooms that need it look better. No, way in hell am I going to attempt stairs. I mean I think I could but not if I don't have to.
I now have the dilemma of the real estate agent doing enough to sell the house. I figure, friend or not, if there aren't enough people going through the house, of course no one is going to buy it. And if I have to pay so much money seems like a lot more should be being done. Hell, I don't know. I just want to lay down and sleep for like a week.
Well, with all the stuff going on our school time has suffered. They are doing art right now so I can do this. And there is several rooms of furniture in there that we have to work around. I reckon here in 3 years or so we will get it all together - I hope :-)
Peace to you all!!
