House hunting day…

Apparently, we’re still holding our breath today, as we were forwarded some things to fix from the anal home inspector last night. Things that didn’t actually need to be fixed. Example A, the tub in the bathroom drains slowly. Well buddy, we’ve used it twice so unscrew the drain plug so it sits a little bit higher and more water will go through it! It’s not plugged. I think that a little OCD is a prerequisite for that guys job. Anyway, we replied to the buyer telling her we “fixed” some stuff that didn’t actually need to be fixed, it was fine, and we’ll cross our fingers that she isn’t going to be a stubborn & rediculous you-know-what. Josh and I were so grouchy last night, we couldn’t sleep. he played video games to fuel the agression into another source. Me, i just stewed like usual. Now we wait.
Today, is the big house shopping day. Mostly browsing i guess. We’ve got a few reno options, no turnkey properties though, which could be scary, although an interesting project for May or June by the time we get back from Mexico, then China.
Our lucky lab got to go practice his beast stroke yesterday at the local pool, along with an awesome day of daycare. His first experience. He loved the pool as usual, and he gets to go one more time before he learns about his own private plunge pool at the condo in PV.
And, officially i guess i started doing some Christmas shopping yesterday, and might be able to get into the mood finally. All the stores are playing the tunes now. It’s strange to think winter is coming, as we’re leaving it for another summer, but yesterday (Nov 20th) was +13 here. Its’ been a pretty great fall. I shouldn’t really complain, and in fact its turned more into looking forward to warmer.
Exactly 1 month until we move in with my mom. And, 42 days till Mexico. I’m starting to dream in spanish. Things like, “this is my husband, he’s buying milk, eggs, and bread for breakfast tomorrow”. huh. weird. i’d better expand my knowledge a little bit because that’s not a normal conversation.
