the utterly overwhelming disappointment has faded a tad. buying a shit ton of stuff helps along with the check the loan office owner wrote us. we said "fuck it" and got a new bed, 2 night stands, and a gel memory foam mattress from thomasville. then we went to homedepot and bought a big stainless steel fridge with ice maker and a convection microwave oven. today we repainted most of goons room and went to ikea and got her a new bed, new bookcase, and new desk. if i can't have a new house, then fuck it, imma buy shit till it feels like a new house. i'm going to buy a load of pots and load up my patio with all the plants i had planned for the other house. belladonna, love lies bleeding in green and red, dill bush, butterfly bush mix, lilac bushes, lucifer lillys, dolls eye... i will make it awesome if it kills me.
scott will just have to put a small desk in the already tight living room BUT he's going to get a larger monitor which will let me watch interwebz tv in the living room. i'll SO live with that. i won't be able to take up oil painting like i wanted and xmas will find us with no place for a tree anymore but i will have to live with that.
tomorrow i have to mail off returns and hope i can recoup most of the money from the stove parts. i also HAVE to finish painting goons room. the guy putting new carpet into the condo will be out here tuesday to measure. wednesday, the new fridge and microwave arrives and theres some awards thing we have to go to for goon. thursday we find out if goon got into the school she wants. i've got boxes of bullshit every where that i can't unpack and have no where to put them... plus i don't kno what i'm supposed to do with luah and the guinea pigs and all of our stuff when the guy comes to install the carpet either. why is it when you're busy you're always "holy shit balls i'm fucking so busy i forgot to eat"? it never spreads itself out.
