so it's been a while since i've been able to provide an update - i have been incredibly busy.
honestly i don't feel like dragging out all the details so this is the short version of what's been going on.
we made an offer on the house that was finally accepted however the very next day the sellers withdrew the contract. the selling agent had listed the house as FHA however the house will not pass FHA. skip all the hateful words i've spouted since that news on what i think about that selling agent...the day following that the sellers came back asking if they installed electric base board heaters on the 2nd and 3rd floor (which is what it needs to pass an FHA inspection) would we be willing to pay for half of it. of course we said no. so then they called later and asked could we go on of they paid for all of it. we still were not thrilled about the idea because we were under the impression that we were going to have electric heat. met-ed is taking the cap off the rates; they're going to go through the fucking roof. our agent later explained to us that they're not going to be removing the gravity heat furnace and that the base board heaters they're going to have installed are going to have individual thermostats. this was better for us to hear - basically we just won't use them, and the house will pass the inspection.
friday we went in and signed all the updated paper work. our agent sent it electronically to the selling agent with 24 hours for them to respond. of course it's monday now and we've heard nothing from our agent.
honestly i'm not holding my breath. if they do it - we get it, if not - we move on. i'm pretty much over it.
work has been kicking my ass and so has the weather. i'm so fucking tired of all this fucking snow. and now i'm hearing there's a potential for another 12" to fall tomorrow evening. yay.
i think stress is starting to get to me; on top of that i'm closing in on my period. i know i've been a totally bitch lately and i just don't care. ha! i don't feel out of control bitchy - actually very in control. i've just lost a lot of patience and am quicker to let people exactly what i'm thinking lately.
well that's about all i feel like typing for now.
