Kevin's Watch

congrats spring, for the A+

Thanks, Sarge!

I feel sleepless. It's a long Friday night. Fun fun fun

well, cautiously optimistic. the mortgage company says we are approved and sign Monday. i'll believe it when I am there signing, still time for something to happen...

(fingers crossed)

got yer back, sarge!

Had some seizures this morning, so day started off crap. Started collecting 40k miniatures again (Tau & Tyranid), and happy writing, so life ain't too bad.

I've had a nagging sinus headache for three days now. I am unsure if it is my spring allergies starting to kick in, a cold I picked up from one of the kids (though come to think about it, the kid with the "cold" shares the same allergies I do, so we both might be having allergy symptoms rather than a cold), or just a reaction to the crazy weather and all of the rain we've been having. Hanging in there, though.

Spring is trying to arrive. I just walked around the yard with my dog, and we noticed that the hundreds of flower bulbs I planted last fall are starting to sprout. It should be very lovely here over the next 2-3 months as the various flowers bloom.

Those who remember our visit with Fisty and DLB and Danlo in NYC last summer might remember how much my younger son loved the donut factory near Fist's house. With months of trying off and on I finally located one closer to our house than New York state. We went to that red state to the south, Ohio, last night to get hot donuts off the assembly line. My younger son was very happy.

I have been feeling nauseous the last three or four days. Back at work after 4 weeks leave.

Loremaster, hope your doing better now!

Feel better or else damn it!

I have a pre-employment screening with the electric company in the morning,I really hope I get the job.I have been at my current job for 7 years and I feel defeated everyday I have to go to it.I loath and despise it and it takes 100% of my better judgement and sense of responsibility to get in the car every morning and drive to the acursed place.I hate it!I hate it!I hate it! Anyway,wish me luck.And by the way today I feel ran down,tired,put out,over extended,in over my head,and used up.

Taught the boyfriend to snowboard today... he did really well! The cold kicked my butt however... I'm sore and my face is all red, but it was worth it to get him on the mountain!

Went to Atlanta with seven of my friends to a Gilbert and Sullivan opera called "Mikado." Pretty decent. Was my first ever opera.

One of the people with us knew a staff member, who took us on a tour of the Fox Theater. He showed us to this breathtaking open-air part of the theatre, really high up; was a stellar view. Had some great food, too. Now it's 1:17 AM and I'm sipping some decaf coffee. Heading to bed soon. So glad it's spring break!

Good luck SBG.

Thanks Baney and Duck!

I'm resting today! First day off in 8 days. 'tis good to oversleep.

well we have been approved for 62k. the house lists at 70k. we are talking to the realtor and another realtor today. maybe she comes down, maybe we move. damn it all.

sendin good vibes your way sarge and julie!!

thanks Lucimay!

thinking about taking the 62k and just buying a tent, keeping the rest.

sarge, if I've seen anything, it's banks and realtors puttin people thru the torture wringer with the house process, and one thing to watch out for is that the realtor and bank may be trying to dump a certain property on you, and are manipulating your credit limit...if they start offering certain properties that they are having trouble selling, pay close attention.....

did SBG get the job?

thanks esmer. we are going to offer the 62k. if she says no, but i have something else, we are smiling and going through someone else. will update when we know something.
