Yesterday I spent the whole afternoon at the doctor’s office with Kitty because her tonsils are basically touching AGAIN – I think it’s time to get those babies yanked out! Since we are right in the middle of Tennis, I guess it will have to wait until this summer…fun, fun.
Anyway
Today I’m a little broken hearted.
I signed a Letter of Intent for my perfect space yesterday and this morning I found out that another “realtor” had an LOI in an hour before mine and I will NOT get my space. Tear :’-(
Why were there two people from the SAME small management place handling one space? Don’t they communicate!?
Ugh.
This place was perfect…
So now what?
I am discouraged…
I am confused…
I am a little heartbroken…
BUT!
I will NOT give up!
Period.
I just need to work out a few things…
I know I still owe you all before and after pictures – I have not forgotten! Just been busy…shhhh!
I do have another item on my agenda now. I am officially house hunting. We have outgrown our current house – not by people – but by “things”. We have no room for our trailer, RV or our Ranger. And since we live in the middle of town, we keep getting notices that we can’t park these items in our side yard or on the street. It sucks!
Among that reason, I received a postcard in the mail that we had a High Risk Sex Offender move into our community! Oh yeah! I am putting this out there! By my community, they mean literally down the freaking street!
My girls walk home people! (Of course they LOVED this time alone and independence!) I can’t have this! When I googled the sex offenders in our area, I found that there are 3! Count them THREE of these types of people in that same complex!
Keep in mind that I don’t live in the “bad” part of town either! What really pierces my heart is that I don’t feel it’s safe for the girls anymore. Not to mention – them walking home together and staying alone for an hour before I get home. (This guy’s particular offense was burglary WITH a sex offense! )
Now, I have to change everything! And I’m heartbroken all over again.
Why would you let a “HIGH-RISK” (their words – not mine) sex offender out of prison or on the streets? Can someone please explain why they are not in some mental hospital or rehab place? I pay enough taxes to support them being AWAY from me! Huh? Anyone?
So now I am house hunting – which makes me a little happier. I know that I can’t smother my girls and take away all of their freedoms, but that is exactly what my protective nature has done. Not only that, I feel that I am smothering myself because I refuse to even go to the grocery store alone without them! I hate it!
I am a ball of nerves, irritation and anger! We HAD a really good system and schedule going that was beneficial to everyone – not anymore!
What is soooo bad, is that I can’t control any of it!
I.Can’t.Control.ANY.of.It!
And yet my whole family, work and LIFE have been affected!
MY KIDS ARE MY LIFE! (okayyy, Mr. Strong too...)
So I will remain a little heartbroken…until the things that I CAN control are completed and successful.
:'-(
Where is a magic money fairy when you need one? "Poof! all of your debt and burdens are gone and your new house that you picked out is bought and paid for! Voila! Enjoy! Your family is safe now!"
*sigh*
