The Rainbow Rant (now with Unicorns)

So hubs tells me, at least a two car garage and a basement.... /head desk. There was a home I really liked online, he sees it today, gets excited then I tell him its under contract already and deflates. Well thats what happens when you keep wanting to wait. This week I'm on nights and next week he is. Guess we'll see what comes up. We need to have something by end of June or we're in our place for another 11 months... sigh.

If you don't put an offer in on a place in the next week or two, you are probably missing the window to move in by the end of June unless you've got some lightening fast loan and underwriting processing.

We dont need to move by end of June. We have to give notice by July 1st. 60 days. I dont mind having to move later it's just more expensive.

You should prep your husband to pull the trigger.

If it means you teach him things, teach him things.

my family doctor won't prescribe me birth control as she is catholic and it is against her beliefs. so now i am going to see a new doctor i have zero medical history with over lunch.

these doctors are supposed to be people of science. why is it so hard to put aside her personal beliefs and just write me the damn prescription?

[NikLR 13,227]

Keep your religious beliefs out of my medical concerns! Yeesh! That's ridiculous.

Good luck in finding a house.

Thanks! If we dont find it we don't. But I think we're both motivated. He just never does anything until it's in his face. It's a wonder we were engaged so quickly really. Lol!

kale chips

All kale the repeated advice. Where can these be found, and do they cost more than regular cheaps?

[...] there's a foot of snow on the ground with a layer of ice under it.

In comparison, the green lizards are again scurrying behind my front porch's light fixture.

Et...tu.....brute........

Latin's a dead language,

Once, it killed the Romans,

Tarklar's wallet in a vise

No, man; I do it by hand: I squeeze the nickel till the buffalo bellows, and I fold sawbucks so tightly that Alexander Hamilton gets ingrown whiskers, see man.

Mmmm....pork bun.....

No one has yet explained to me what a pork bun is, no man.

more pigs than people in Denmark.

Ecu's chief population groups, in order, see man:

1. Roosters

2. Dogs

Many. People

went to bring the little one to the Pedi this morning for his 1 month visit. He is now 10 lbs 6 oz, and 22 inches long.

He's a big little boy, si wee man!

I had lunch with J. She's beautiful, and wonderful.

It was my pleasure to have met her acquaintance.

Fotoes or it didn't happen, si and no man.

New water heater

A.O. Smith? Congrats, but why spend so much, huh man?

For a new State heater, including purchase, delivery, installation, and bringing the appallingly out-of-code stuff up to snuff, I spent a total of $Many ($589). Too bad that the plumber couldn't have delivered the heater himself, or we'd have saved $Many ($70), sigh man.

Oh no. Hope things get better for them. It's unfortunate that Mini-B isn't enjoying Ecuador, but I'm sure his age has much to do with that. Hubby really wants to acclimate our kids to Ecu from a young age, and I know he'd be really upset if they openly disliked it. I think he's afraid they're going to be "spoiled American brats".

Mrs. T-B. is no longer an Ecuatoriana, for sure, si and sigh man.

She was a lot calmer today, calling to say that Mini-B. was in a good mood and was acting normally today, and that perhaps he's becoming acclimated. She sent fotos of him playing trains in the dirt with his cousins or others. Maybe she can finally have a "Mommy's Couple-of-Hours Out" with her amigas, si man.
