Jason informed me today that we maybe losing our site. The company that hosts the site has hiked up their price per year. We may be shopping around for something cheaper.
So….if you log on one day and we are not here, you will know why. We will keep you posted if we were to use a new host!
Seriously! At this point the damage done to my vehicle is roughly 5K, including the bent frame that the body shop and Nationwide plan to have fixed. Now they may find more once they start repairing the damage. The car is still not totaled. I am afraid that it will take another 4 grand to do so. Does that just seem ridiculous to anyone other than me? Can’t wait to get my bent frame car back! Oh! Can I please have it back? So, why haven’t they totaled it yet? Got me!
Yes, tis true; someone has smashed into the back of my Rav4. Car Go Bang made for an interesting week. Last Wednesday at about 5:32 PM on Rock Quarry Road an Italian man decided he wasn’t going to use his breaking system and used mine instead. I saw him coming I just couldn’t get out of the way fast enough and right up underneath of my car he went.
No one stopped. No one called the police. My cell phone? I left it at home on the counter. Now, some of you know how paranoid I can be at times. We all watch the news and see the freakish stories. I was terrified that I would be on the 6 o’clock news and not in a good way.
At about the time where I started loosing consciousness the man who so abruptly introduced his car to mine called Jason. Jason had asked me if I had called the cops. All I could say is no, you need to do that. I am glad he did.
The driver, with only a license to drive fleet cards and no insurance had asked me several times not to call the cops. Not that I could with having leftl home without my phone. I felt stranded!
My car did not look all that damaged however, the back doors do not open anymore. The muffler makes a beautiful put-put-put and the weather stripping on the front windshield is all wrinkled. I called the body shop today (the car has been there since last Thursday) and I was told the car is still not finished being evaluated. I am okay with that. I would rather them take the time and do it right. When I asked him how it was looking his exact words were, “Look’ in kinda rough” and I just couldn’t believe it.
We will be mailing out our new address cards within the next week. I will say I was able to get them super cheap thanks to www.vistaprint.com. They aren’t spectacular but they do the trick.
There are only 32 days until we close on our new house. A little nerve racking being that we have not sold our current home. The winds are changing. They’ve got to be. We currently have a distinguished unit house on the market; none other for sale in the neighborhood is like ours in looks.
Meanwhile at the new house a 24 ton AC unit was installed this week. Can you say BREEZY! I like it. The hardwoods in the living room, dining room and hall are completed. They look nice. We also have a driveway and sidewalk. Jason would not let me carve our names in the wet concrete. They look nice. This week, the builder will install a new cabinet in the kitchen (the one they installed has a gash in it) trim out the walls with toe kick, and complete painting.
This weekend we took measurements for our windows so that we could price some window treatments. We have a lot more windows to dress this move.
I have a final exam tomorrow for the CNA class I am taking. Before some study time today, Christopher, Justin, Granny and I went for a swim. I forgot how nice a pool is when it is 90 degrees outside. Our new neighborhood will not have a pool. Today, for a brief moment I thought I would miss it.
Our picture gallery is currently broke. Jason is working on getting it fixed!
In the meanwhile, our house does have siding, brick and shingles. This week on the builder’s agenda is installing the insulation and drywall. Yes, drywall already. We are still on schedule to close on July 26th.
Check back with us for pictures! Hopefully we will be fixed by the end of the week.
Gas prices are so high, we refused to travel!
We have no big plans this weekend. I had wanted to go to the mall, take pictures on the progress of the new house and watch some TV (not a lot….just a little).
However…..Jason has been feeling quite ill today so I have been sitting on the couch and making sure he is comfortable.
No one has asked to view the house in the past few days. I am beginning to think our St. Joseph is not feeling well too.
Happy Mother’s Day to everyone!
Today I spent the day with my mom. It is the 1st Mother’s day in seven years that we celebrated together. We shopped till we dropped, snacked at CPK and then shopped some more. My dad and his mother joined Jason, my Mom and I for dinner at Taverna Agora. An excellent restuarnt might I add.
We didn’t get to go and see the new house today, but 2 more flyers are missing from our box. Keeping our fingers crossed to sell the house sooner than later!
