Updates! I'm finally all moved in to my house. Phew! Closing was ridiculous and I'm glad it's over. Now I can just worry about mortgage payments and insurance and utility bills. I put my mailbox up, which was ridiculous, too because I had to dig a 2' deep hole that still wasn't deep enough, and in the process I cut a snake open, which made me kind of sad, so I buried it with dirt so I wouldn't see it. [Once when we were little, my sister stabbed a snake with a small hand-held garden shovel, and I cried and told my mom because the snake had babies. It was one of the FEW times she actually got in trouble.]
I love my house and I'll post pictures soon. Milo has such a great time in the backyard, he runs around and around and around and around. Wednesday I'm having an estimate done for a new fence, so hopefully soon he'll be able to run around the backyard more often. House training is going better with him, but not perfect. He is only 3 months old, though.
Boy stuff, eh. I guess it's ok. He works every other weekend, in addition to M-F, so I only see him every other weekend. He lives about an hour+ away and is hard to get on the phone. We'll see what happens.
I'm also watching Big Brother 8 - when I remember - as well as catching up on Seinfeld. I'm on Season 4 right now. Other than that, nothing new. Just settling in and raising my puppy. Pictures soon!
UPDATE! Sorry, so much going on. Like your life was drastically impacted by my lack of update.
HOUSE: Closing has been postponed until Monday. I had to send them my divorce decree from Monday [I'm officially single] and THEN they needed the quit claim deed that gives him sole 'custody' of the house. So on Friday I had to run around doing that, which is a story of itself because they wouldn't take it, I had to redo it and get it re-notarized blah blah. PLUS the underwriters didn't get the paperwork to the title company in time for my 4pm closing time anyway. THEN my realtor calls and tells me the underwriters want a termite inspection. WHY WHY WHY DID THEY WAIT UNTIL THE VERY LAST MINUTE!! So he calls me again later and tells me if the guy does the inspection on Saturday that I can close by Monday at 1pm HOPEFULLY which I hope is the case since my new refrigerator, washer, and dryer are coming on Tuesday. I'm all packed up, pretty much, and ready to go. Oh, and I'll be getting between $500 and $700 back at closing. Yee haw.
MILO: Milo is growing growing growing and he loves to hear himself bark, and he barks as loud as he can. I'm trying to teach him diminuendo. He is still mean but is also very sweet.
DATING: I met a guy that I like A LOT, but things have gotten a little off because 1. I found his MySpace page and it said he was GAY, but then he found out it was a crazy ex who put it up. I believe him because he had told me about crazy ex way before I found his page. 2. He doesn't call when he says he will. But he's coming over tonight so hopefully this weekend we'll get centered or something. I'm hesitant now.
That's about it. Just waiting, waiting, waiting and cleaning up poop.
Lookit what Golfwidow gave me:
So now I'm supposed to pass it on to five other Rockin' girls who blog, which should be fairly easy because I'm pretty sure all of my favorites have one.
Kristy who writes about her feelings, work, thoughts, and men with such clarity that I feel like we're on the phone. Plus she introduced me to the dating website where I met Guy3 and may be on the way to a very nice relationship.
Laurie because she kicks ass, literally and figuratively. She's been through a lot of crap, yet manages to avoid sinking into self-pity. Plus she's got a cute and sassy little girl.
Jessie because she has two cute little girls and she went to see Morris Day which makes me insane with jealousy.
Kim because she is hella funny and her son can shoot some dirty looks, plus that hair pulling thing.
Tuluum for her raw emotions and funny bits, furry bits and yummy recipes.
