  • So . . . I'm alive.  I'm alive, but I've been very distracted.  Being a part of buying a house will do that to you.  I knew it'd be tough, but it is really stressful.

    I've been up and down this week, down more than I would like and have had some hearty cries because I've been sensitive to things that were said.  Let's just say I dislike DIY home improvement work.  That is the time I have the least amount of self-esteem in our relationship because I just can't seem to do anything right; to his satisfaction.  I don't want to do it if I'm going to get talked down to for not doing it right.  He thinks I should just KNOW what the right way is without telling me.  Friggin' frustrating.

    Sigh.  But, the good thing is carpet will be ordered soon, re-inspection done soon, new address labels ordered, and we get the keys 3/31.  Well, boy will get the keys and sign the papers.  I'll be out of town for most of the day.

    Sorry, this is really disconnected, but I just needed to vent a bit.  It wasn't fun crying at work today. :/

  • You're right, it's extremely stressful buying a house, especially when you have to do certain renovations. That's probably why our last 2 houses have been new construction....but the process is still stressful! It always amazes me how the most simple things can seem to throw a wrench in communication with our significant others. I'm sorry it has been so rough lately. I hope it smooths out soon!!

  • @ShamrockLover - Yes, and it's renovations at TWO places, and money money money talk, and yeah. He just doesn't realize the hurtful things he says and doesn't understand when I cry. Bah! At least MOST of the renovation stuff should be done, now we just have to actually DO the move. :P
