frustrated, tired, angry, and want my life back
Comments (4)I understand this may not help you at all, but please know that you're not alone. I'm in much the same place with my Mother. please seek a POA with medical benefits. Try to make him see you are his only support but you need the power to make his life easier. We are basically stuck with a few hundred acres of land that we are too worn out to farm, ours free and clear, but she won't leave her 3 acres.We'd like to put the farm life behind us and travel but can't even consider it. And one of the funniest things is when she was driving she went to the nursing home 3-5 days a week, to eat lunch with her friends. Now she won't even entertain the idea. Some tough decisions are going to have to be made for both of us. Good luck, I know for a fact it was easier raising 3 year old twin boys then it is raising a parent....... keep us up on your progress, all of us are learning every day. simple me...See MoreSo frustrated - remodel is stalled before it has even started!
Comments (1)Yeah but the construction drawings will force you to be far more specific. Not only will your estimate be more accurate but you may avoid cost overruns and schedule delays with a clearly done set of construction drawings and specifications list. I hear you on the frustration thing-- seems like everything takes longer and costs more at every turn. Plan, plan, plan seems to be the most consistent advice we got. Good luck!...See MoreNeighbor Parks Has Car On His Lawn for My Open Houses!Frustrating
Comments (21)time2sell, I had a situation like that with my last investment property that I sold. The guy however, was doing it it kill my sale. He didn't like my buyers ethnicity and his wife even made sure I knew. He started parking all his cars in his front lawn, playing his country music very loud and doing little things just to try to scare my buyers off. There was no HOA so there was not much I could do. Luckily my buyer never said anything and the deal closed quickly. There is some sweet irony to this story though, my buyer apparently did notice the cars on the lawn, but interpreted it that it was ok to park on the lawn in his new neighborhood and started parking one of his cars on the lawn. Last time I drove by the house, he is still parking his car on the lawn. I guess the neighbor that thought he was spoiling my sale, actually started a new trend for the neighborhood. Serves him and his wife right. Time2sell hang in there. Focus on selling the house and not the jerk neighbor. Its juvenile and probably will have little impact on your sale. I also understand your not wanting to say anything to your neighbor. If the guy is this much of a jerk, he'll just be thrilled to know it bothers you....See MoreMy paint color has turned peach!
Comments (17)In my post in baths and also in decorating forum "my expensive new bathroom is ugly" I just posted about how my painter painted the entire bathroom Kilim Beige including the ceiling and it is definitely pink or peachy pink. It was greenish going on, greenish in the fan deck but it is definitely pink on the walls now. I am sick about it because it cost a fortune to paint. I will have to wait until husband goes on a business trip for at least four days so I can get in there and try to fix it because he has also said "it stays". I have already been to the paint store so if you don't want fleshy toned color stay away from Kilim Beige by Sherwin Williams....See MoreSuzieque
