Hi everyone I hope you are all doing well. If something bad happened, I am very sorry.
So, I have been in the bowels of Tucson it's like 110 in the shade we are having a heat wave. This has been my first moment of like, not so exhausted I could not thing, trying to get set up, do things and it's been HORRIBLE. The first day I nipped all the weeks in the backyard (you need a nipper to like do it, they are as big as small trees and often have revolting things in them like funnel web nests so you have to hit the weed very very hard with the nipper in order to like make sure the spider is gone, also you find half dead birds in them. It was the worst. But the pyro me wanted to prove my worthiness and stuff, so that I could burn weeds holy goodness.
I have not had that opportunity yet but I did totally throw out my back (and even expected it) I even got a weight lifter's belt from Walmart to help with that issue. It did, but not nearly enough dude.
So yeah this afternoon has been a bit more child our contractors (whom I kind of hate, because like, well, they left my bathroom like an Elephant had taken a great big dump but I begged him to build stairs even though I SWORE to the husband they would be locked out of the house as like, they were evil, evil Men. He said I couldn't. Then our realtor was like, "Well I could send a handy man dude, only like I finally said to the husband, "You know, this is a manufactured home do they not MAKE them? As it turns out for us, rathe cheaply and efficiently and there will be no framing, just post digging (digging a post sucks, I plan to not put my best effort in AT all LET the husband do and con......g. Etc.
So , I got my job offer yesterday, Yay yay! I am very excited except recruiter dude said I could have more time and my husband pointed out, YEAH we could make it there the night before and then like, freak and spend all night unpacking and that would not be good. So, the recruiter also said I could extend it a week. Which I *SO* am going to do, because that seems ,you know, saner. Something about fixing up my very own house brings out the nut in me. Like this a.m. (I have not been pulling my weight in the am,, really) I spent all morning cleaning the washer, dryer and then anything washable including the inside and outside doors . It was not good.
But the place is starting to look okay the dang husband finished painting the outside, so that's cool. I think some trash junk hauling would be in order but I guess you do that last. Things are getting clean. Job offer moving forward. I would say I would be on her more but the husband gave me special dispensation to do yoga and I was like, "Dude, you need to dispense me in an hour I mean ibuprofen must be taken, tens unit must be used.
I loathe all this stuff, but husband was like happy with my fixing of the steps situation and he is laying down so HEY. I think between us we will get this done in 10 days OMG I Hope in 10 days.
I may or may not be on here, I make no claims. I have so much to do and my normal morning so far is spent groaning and trying to toughen up, as well as stretch and drink enough coffee to be like, remotely sane.
I'm gonna go easy on the yoga. Possibly. I think the husband may have fallen asleep from relief from the step situation. Okay, so I gotta pour concrete. That's cool. At least I am not framing and measuring crap. Also ,relief on the job front so yay!
Happy happy etc .Hope you guys are faring okay. I may read back a few pages. LOL
Later,
Anna
