Butterfly's new plan for success!!!

butterfly · 05-23-2003, 03:26 PM

Anytime sweetie! You enjoy your weekend too and get lots of rest!

butterfly · 05-26-2003, 01:36 AM

Dear Diary,

I'm so tired from working in the new house. I've painted Cory's room, the hallway, the master bedroom and tonight I painted the study... boy are my hands, arms and shoulder even more sore now! I still can't write without excrutiating pain, but I suspect it'll get better once I stop all this painting.

Haven't gone to the gym in weeks! I have been good about what I eat and I've lost a few more lbs of fat. Unfortunately, I'm sure the scale will go back up once I start this leg challenge and add more muscle.

Better get some sleep now...

Stacey · 05-27-2003, 01:07 PM

Dear Ann,
You need to REST now, and take care of your beautiful hands...no cooking/ no cleaning..put your feet up and make John do all the work..

Love,
your diary!

Stacey · 05-27-2003, 01:08 PM

We got the carpet last Wed... it looks sooo good!!! I painted the study Sat. night so now all that's left is the media room (aka formal living room) and the dining room, but I'm still waiting on the decorator to send her guys over to float & texture a wall in there that John took the old wallpaper off of.

~John & Cory both have finals this week... so now house stuff for them.
~Cory is going to Maine next week with my brother and John will finish putting up the new crown molding and replacing all the ugly old brown doors with new white 6-panel doors.
~The next week will be moving week!

Stacey · 05-27-2003, 02:06 PM

WOW!!! You guys are really making that house brand new!!!! I bet the carpet looks AWESOME!!!
Thats a good idea getting the new white doors!~ They will make your home look Great!!! Crown molding too..dang woman!!! I'm sooo proud of you!!! I LOVE my crown molding..almost didn't get it..BUT I'm sooo happy that I did!!!

I bet You cannot wait to move in!!

WoW Lots of studying going on in your home..I feel sorry for your guys~~ I HATED STUDYING!

Stacey · 05-27-2003, 02:07 PM

OMG~ I just saw this "Bitch handler" under your name.. I LOVE IT!!! Hell Ya!

Thanks for getting him back to studying, Stacey!!!

I'm too busy at work right now

I've got these training charts I've got to finish by Thursday... there are 100+ slides!!!

AND

I've got to finish creating the rest of the pages for our new website

...and all I really want to do is go home and snuggle with my honey

butterfly · 05-28-2003, 02:45 PM

Well, we told the realtor about taking the guy's offer of $345,500 if the buyer paid the closing costs and out realtor didn't think that made much sense... not exactly WHY he thought that since fade talked to him... so the realtor said to stick to the $347.

But then I thought about it some more and told fade I thought he should call the realtor back and tell him we'd take the $345,500 and the realtor said NO, he was getting some paperwork ready and was going to call us this afternoon. He suggested both sides make some concessions.

So, we are just waiting to hear back from him... wonder what these concessions will be???

Burner02 · 05-28-2003, 03:19 PM

hmm...I do not know...sorry...
but..if your realtor says stick to your guns...then you might want to do it.

butterfly · 05-28-2003, 03:40 PM

Here's the latest...

Realtor said to go with $346, we pay to strecth the carpet and they pay to clean it.

Realtor also said since they haven't sent an inspector out yet that there may be some cost of repairs there... way we see it is that the house is only 2 yrs old, what the hell could possibly be wrong with a 2 yr old house??? Especially since we had it inspected right before we bought it.

Only thing we disagree on so far is the closing date. He said end of July but we don't want to pay another mortgage payment so we said the end of June. Him wanting to close the end of July makes me think he's been dragging this all out on purpose just to get closer to that date.

Anyway...

Burner02 · 05-28-2003, 03:43 PM

hey-
wish I wasn't so 'green' with the career...so I could give you more insight....

butterfly · 05-30-2003, 01:10 PM

Very funny B... at that point I still didn't know if Prince would create the sub-forum for us or not.

He did... he's SUCH a doll!!!

butterfly · 06-01-2003, 02:16 PM

Dear Diary,

Found out at the party last night that both Jen and Carrie are pregnant! I'm so totally happy for both of them but at the same time I don't know how I'm going to get through this... all the planning, all the baby talk...

I can't let either of them know how much it tears me up inside, wouldn't be fair to them, I want them to enjoy their pregnancies and new blessings.

I'll be strong!
