Emma and I left Wednesday to fly back to Granger to meet the movers. We have leased the house and our renters will be moving in next Monday. Here we are waiting at the airport with Starbucks in hand.
At the moment I am waiting for the moving van... it is FOUR hours late. I'm a bit frustrated. I can't do much cleaning or painting when there are boxes and furniture strewn throughout the house.
On top of that, our lease agreement still isn't signed because the renters wanted their lawyer to review it. Their lawyer finally got back to our realtor today and they are asking to write in that if they want to purchase the house at the end of the lease that they can purchase it for almost 20k less than what we're asking right now for it and that we will apply all of their rental payments toward the purchase price. WTH? That's a year away! I'm not prepared to lower the price that much when we don't even know what the market will be a year from now. I'm really aggravated right now... can you tell? What if this blows the whole deal? I know, I know. "What if" should not be in my vocabulary but after several years of too many of the "what if's" actually happening, I can't break the habit.
What, if anything, is aggravating YOU today? Please... take my mind off of this for a few minutes.

I'm aggravated with SSI today...we signed Lora up for SSI about 2 years after we got her diagnosis, mainly because we wanted he to be "in the system" already if anything happened to us. But, we've never gotten much per month, mainly because our housing is paid for by living in a parsonage...anyway, we were notified last month that her payments were going up from just around $100 to $336 per month and we were actully really excited about that because we were trying to figure out how to pay for drop-off preschool...felt like it was an answer to prayer, etc...
So, we got that amount for one month and then yesterday received a letter from SSI saying that they had figured it incorrectly and it was back down to right at $100...frustrating...
Wow - that rental agreement doesn't seem like a very good deal for you. A lot can happen in a YEAR! Yikes. What did you decide to do?
Oooh - I'm so sorry to hear about Lora's SSI. :( That would certainly frustrate me too. I hope you still find a way to send her to drop-off preschool.
What's aggrivating me? Well, my husband lost his job 5 weeks ago. THEN he got the shingles and was unable to even look for a job (he was in serious pain, contagious, etc.) NOW, he's getting better and looking very hard for a job but...the job market has TANKED around here. No seems to be hiring civil engineers. SIGH. I know it will be ok one way or another, but man. It is very frustrating. And extremely worrisome. And scary.
