harbl encouragement thread

yeah i'm going. closing is august 9. i guess i should do radon inspection too but i don't want to pay so much right now and can do it later?

when is housewarming party/sandbox fap

after i buy furniture when my tax return comes in? i'm gonna need another bed and a couch for a sandboxer. i need to do some work on the deck. today i was looking at couches and stuff on the internet. so expensive! i also brought my old couch out for bulk trash. it was an ikea love seat i got on craigslist for $100. did i mention this house is 888 sq ft?

a house that is all yours is awesome no matter what the size!

oopsie harbl i almost flag posted you when trying to bookmark a thread over on ilks

glad to have an east coast address

harbs if u get any weird mail addressed to j. petricio esq. just file it, i will be around

i can't wait till you arrive!

the house needs a new roof so i need to see if the seller will do that :(
also i am single now so i guess if i move this will be a lot of new things at once to overwhelm me :/

oh dear harbl

sorry harbly

it's what i wanted i just didn't think it would be so hard. i hate that feeling when it's too quiet and there's so much noise in your head! i'm going to the laundromat to drown it out. i'm so glad i have my own thread on this sandbox for my encouragement.

will you have a washer and dryer in your small house?

aw, sorry harbl :(

yeah i'll have my own washer and dryer. it all depends if this guy agrees to fix what i want him to fix!

i'm going to be ok. sometime. haha.

aw sweetie, you are surely going to be okay..

harbl, you are a grand one and you have my best wishes and highest hopes and ongoing infinite encouragement. and i love the sound of your fingers crossed dear little house, i love little houses the best.

how now, girlie?

i am talking to my realtor this morning. stressed.

thinking good thoughts for you and your little house

the guy says he will do a new roof but won't fix any other thing. i'm not going to walk away over less than $1,000 in mainly non-urgent repairs and he knows it. so i'll take my new roof and just quietly stew.

you'll be stewing under a new roof yes? that's wonderfullll!!!!

injustice is injust, but roofs are good. and now it won't rain on your head!

I am so excited for you, harbl!

i'm excited now too. the stuff he won't fix is not a big deal, the house is super old. i need to think about movers. also i need advice what to plant in the box in front. it's about 4 square feet and has an awkward rose bush in it and that's it. i want kind of a rain garden type thing that doesn't require much weeding.

i am v much in love with the idea of awkward roses come springtime tbh

i stopped by to take a picture of it to show my mom because i asked for gardening advice. there are a couple other awkward plants there that i hadn't even noticed.

lol

um, i know what i'm talking about and you don't

my closing got moved from tomorrow to next wednesday but i don't care too much. also the lender just remembered to tell me i can get more free money for being a state employee so i'm going to be able to buy a little furniture. i drove by it last night. so cute. ughhhhhhh i wanna move!

when are you gonna

i'm not sure i didn't really get movers yet or tell my landlord i'm moving. i guess i need to do that now.

good luck!

i hope your little cat settles in quickly and isn't too indignant about the upheaval.

closed. haven't even begun to think of moving. oops.

hurray harbl!!!!!!

So excited for you!!!

Yay!!

whoop whoop!!!

harbl are you moving yet?

i think i'll move monday august 26th. i moved some stuff in this weekend. i met my neighbors, some old lesbians. and also someone who lives down the street. she appeared to be a mennonite.

i have to tell you this funny cute story

i like to get mail from the jail and read other people's mail. it's like a compulsion i have to read other people's mail they get. i don't know what it is. i like the different kinds of handwriting and bizarre ideas and funny grammar. anyway today i got three letters in one envelope. they were all clearly written by the same person but they were signed with spanish names. each one was asking for the same thing in slightly different words, like please help me i want to plead guilty but i have written letters to your office and no one responds. so having gotten no response from the district court office somehow they got my name and had someone write letters to me for them. or it's possible it's one of my clients at the jail helping some people who can't speak english.
