Cat House

[dixie_yankee]

The five cats of the apartment have been demanding more space. I suggested that they get jobs and buy a new place to call home. They reminded me that they don't get the concept of working for money. Working to catch a mouse or bird? Sure, they understand that. In fact, the newest addition (whom we have named Q-Tip) recently made a bird explode in

Oh my goodness! Congratulations!

Our four cats use their DMC to make us give them health care. I think they like the house we're renting. Between diabetes, crystals, and routine maintenance, we probably could have been paying off a house... but not now!

Congrats!

And if you have in fact bought said house -

SUCKER!

Ah, the joys of home ownership.

So, you exist or not?

[dixie_yankee]

Yup,
I do somewhat exist...
So, the deal with the house fell through; the sellers either got cold feet or, more likely from what we experienced, were insane. We were disappointed for a few days. Then we went looking again...And found a house to make an offer on. Our offer was accepted the very next day. We must've offered too much is my guess. However, Lisa and I both were willing to pay what we offered and the house appraises for more than that, so... no harm, no foul. We close the end of May (we still have this apartment leased until the end of July - sigh) That will give us 2 months to rip out the carpet and install bamboo flooring and do any other thing we want to the house before we -have- to be moved out of here.
So, Squishy, what is up with you? Did you get the job? Are you still a state employee?
