Have you ever had a day when things just didn't seem to go as planned, so when it all comes tumbling down, you can do nothing but cry until you're utterly exhausted? Today was one of those days for me.
Our offer, which we had hoped was accepted, was not. I came home this morning to find an envelope tucked by the front door frame. When I read the letter, I was crushed. The counteroffer is almost 40,000 grand more than we had originally offered. I'm not sure how we are going to pull this one off. It has put us in a pickle, to say the least.
I know that we can present an offer again, but to be honest, I would hate to think that we are trying to take something away from them. I know that isn't something I should think about, but I can't help it.
We've come up with two options. We either have to sell our present house straight out to our daughter and her fiance, or we cash in my husband's 401K plan and hope for the best for the future. Selling to them outright instead of doing the rent-to-buy would be difficult, if near impossible.
But enough house talk..
Some people annoy the piss out of me. You know the type of people I'm going to be writing about. The ones who say ... "I know you better than you know yourself".
You know what I say to people who make that claim in regards to me? Go piss off!
There is this person who I used to like quite a bit that is giving me grief. I don't need any grief in my life. At the present time, I have enough, thank you.
He's questioning my faith in God. He's questioning my belief, and making it seem like it's wrong of me to feel the way that I do.
I haven't talked to this person to great lengths in a few years. I've changed. I'm not the same person that I used to be. My way of thinking is different. My views have changed. I see the world through different glasses than I once did.
It angers me that he would take this superior, know-it-all attitude. I don't understand where he gets off by trying to question what I do with my life. It's my life. I am not his wife. I am not anything to him. I answer to three people in this world. Me, my husband and God.
Do you know what his problem is? His problem is that he fell victim to the "you snooze, you lose" syndrome.
He had the chance to be with me. I was with him before my husband. He didn't want to commit or even say that he cared deeply for me. I ended up marrying my husband instead. I made the best possible choice, too!
I've reached a point where I no longer wish to associate with him. I just don't need the aggravation. I don't need to explain anything to anyone nor should I be put into the position where someone tries to get me to explain.
He had his chance to love me. He blew it!
I suppose that's all I have to say tonight.
Men suck and so does buying a new house! I just wish all this sucking would lead to a magnificently powerful orgasm.

even though I apparently suck, I'm sorry you had such a crappy day......
