It's been a few days? Yes?
Pffft.
You don't know. You haven't even missed me.

What's going on with the house?
Tears.
Many tears.
Much negotiating.
Many rough drafts of contracts.
Much butting-in from the Living in Sinlaws.
Little communication from The Bottomless Pit. Well, unless you're his dad. His dad seems to know more about my future than I do.
The whormones, the boundary violations and my own inability to commit to much of anything that requires a signature.... no good.
This is as big as it gets for me, people. I'm unwilling to marry my man, for many reasons. So buying a home IS the big deal.
Me and my portion of the checkbook still have fleeting thoughts of running away.
Our projected move-in date is December 1st.
And since the windows are not yet finished and the boiler is yet to be replaced, it's still not 100% final.
I could still move to Oregon or Phoenix or Dallas.

One healthy baby (booYAH, Mom and your crystal ball!) is due in May. ♥
MID-MAY.
Mmmhmm.
ThankYouJesus.
Pregmood? Still bitchy.
I've been giving myself time-outs. Locking myself in the bathroom. To seethe.
Last pregnancy I used to sit on the bathroom floor and cry and not know why I was crying and that would make me cry more.
Now I'm just pissed.
I thought about getting a spray bottle, like you would use for a cat that's climbed up on the table, ya know? But if I spray myself with it, that takes away the element of surprise.
That leaves The Pit.
And if he were to spray me with a spray bottle, I just may go Amber on him.
So there goes that.
Pregzilla will be here for a while, peeps.

The cuteness of The Cute takes my breath away. Daily.

I need to start packing. Don't I?

A girl from my 2nd grade class recognized me at Walmart.
Remembered my name and everything.
HOW in the HELL?

I suck at blogging because not only can I not keep up with posts...
I can't keep up with awards.
I've gotten some. And I appreciate them, like crazy.
But I suck at responding to them.
So bad.
And I've gotten tagged in stuff that I've started to respond to...
Then by the time I get around to it, I feel it's irrelevant. And then I stress about 'This was days ago. Should I do it now? Should I not do it? What do I do?'
Because I'm cray.
I also suck at SITS. I thought I was blocked from roll-call for not participating. My comments weren't showing up!
It turns out that I was linking to my last POST and not my actual BLOG and that doesn't WORK and no, I wasn't blocked from commenting.
Is that dumb?
Just say it.
YES.

We were going to go apple-picking on Sunday but our local orchard? Picked out of apples.
Yep.
WTF.

The Bottomless Pit's mom and sister got directions to the house. They drove to it. Peered in the windows.
They told me this. And they started describing the interior to me.
Hardwood floors! Big kitchen! It's cute!
And I was all 'I know!'.
And THEY were all 'How do YOU know? YOU'VE seen it?!'
***
I think I'll end on that note.

Well obviously you would sign your name and never ever go to the actual house--what are you thinking? You mean you just aren't taking the Bottomless Pits word for it?
Stupid people abound. They sound like they take the cake.
Fingers crossed that the house works out for you. Home ownership is a whole other world.
Contemplating a mortgage while crazy with child number two is something I thought only I would do.
We moved in when I was six months along, so I wasn't much help in moving.
Expect it to be a bumpy ride until the boxes are unpacked...it will get easier.
And The Cute will be young enough to not ask to "go home" after you move in - this is not fun.
Moving to Oregon sounds better and better to me!
Ooh! Ooh! Pick Phoenix! Pick Phoenix! (waving arms around wildly)
I laughed out loud about the spray bottle and how you would be taking away the element of surprise if you sprayed yourself. Just made myself chuckle again thinking about that.
You're living in sin laws sound almost like you are making them up because the stuff they do is so ridiculous! I can't believe they would think that you hadn't seen the house that you are in contracts to buy. WTH? Seriously.
And you at least blog on somewhat of a freqent basis. My last post was about my Daily Commute vlogs - on SEPTEMBER 17TH! I did actually record another one but then the editing drove me crazy. So I quit.
You mean Oregon, Phoenix, Dallas or AUSTIN, right?!? Typo??
Haha - you're a better woman than me for putting up with some of this stuff!!!
dude you are better than me on posting! Life gets away from us! I can't believe they think you haven't seen a house you'd buy (did they think it was wrong you saw it first?). Is this where you go - well, the Pitt and I were going to just buy it from the MLS, but our realtor was really insistent we go look. Can you believe the b*tch?
PS - I feel you on the whormones. I always found that even realizing the irrational thing the crying was related to (my period) was enough to make me feel more even keeled. I no longer feel this way. (sigh)
Pregnant AND buying a house????
You ARE crazy!!!!
But for reals, it hope it works out for you. And if you are anything like me, you won't start packing until Nov. 30th.
GOOD LUCK!
I am going through withdrawal! I know, I know - I'm one to talk, but come on! Scooby Doo, where are you?
Yes, please come back. You and all your sillyness are greatly missed.
You've been on my mind. Hope things are going well for you and yours.
Going cray cray without your updates.
Where in the friggedy frick frack are ya???!!! I'm the one who doesn't post for weeks (okay, months...at a time) - not you!! ;)
But seriously, hope all is going okay over there. :)
Hey girl! Hope all is going well with you!?
You obviously were unaware of the best way to buy a house. Buy it before you see it righttttt!? ;)
Ok so new term, when I'm feeling extra fat like I just finished my king size Butterfinger in 5 minutes, I say "I feel/look like Gary". Isnt that great? #teamgary.
Wait how can an apple orchard be out of apples?! I thought thats what orchards were all about? Anyways, hope you guys have a great weekend!
