Snails - Response on Threads Part 8

[daleron]

Good morning y'all

So, my mom's house in Phoenix is under contract, with closing scheduled for mid-october!!

My construction hasn't started (argh) , but i think i have the contractors identified and starting next week i get to jump through the financing hoops. I think it won't be done by the time she's ready to move here, but we'll figure something out in the meantime.

Good morning CES

Oh boy

Good morning, Gracie and CES
CES, sounds like you're in for a ride. Buckle up!!!!

Yep....lots of changes. they'll be good ones. I think my mom and i will do well together, but it'll take just a teensy bit of adjustment. i've been living alone for 15 years and settled in this house for 10 of them. She's been on her own for 3 years, and in the house she's been in for ~ 20 years. The construction will make the change easier (for me) , as will the fact that we'll use much of her furniture, because it's nicer than mine. We'll both have a combination of familiar and unfamilar stuff, though she'll have a lot more newness to deal with.

Sounds like it will be just fine once the dust settles....

morning, ces and gracie!

@CES - if it gets too crowded with construction and second occupant send your mom a bit north for a couple of weeks!

 

[SilverBear]

... send your mom a bit north for a couple of weeks!

I will most certainly NOT take her in.

(No offense, CES.)

 

[AttyPops]

I assume, it almost goes without saying, that she loves dogs...
Sounds like a great life-change for both of you, CES.

Good morning snails.

So Dale, tell me more about this new PV.

 

[classwife]

Good morning
Florida seems to have a bit of brightness this morning...not full sunshine, but not gloomy !

 

[Katmar]

Good morning, Atty and Classy . @classwife , glad the worst is over and sunny skies ahead!

Good morning Atty

It's not actually a "new" PV, just a ProVari that has a dragon etched on it. I've looked at them many times wanting one but now that they are in the 30 dollar range and with an extra 10% discount off that I could no longer resist

Good morning

It was a lot brighter earlier this morning; cloud cover is heavy right now.

 

[Flowersoul]

No wonder the cloud cover was heavy; pouring rain!!!

 

[CES]

morning, ces and gracie!

@CES - if it gets too crowded with construction and second occupant send your mom a bit north for a couple of weeks!

I'm hoping to rent the house across the street for a couple of months - we both agree that it's too much for her and her kitties during construction.
Otherwise , I already have 2-3 friends that have offered.

I will most certainly NOT take her in.

(No offense, CES.)

no offense at all Bear- besides you're way too far north.
