Are Moo Moo's And Boo Boo's Doomed?...Part 5

Just back from the gym - Oof it was tough!

We got 2 new interns and they asked if I was the instructor :rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

HARDLY! I am guessing since I was the first one in the room and they wanted to say hi that was the easiest way. LOL
 
Oh and I posted a couple of updates to my Hawaii (pre) trip report today!! Almost done with it now...
 
Sounds like my weekend - with shopping for my husband for vacation - LOL.




Also, buying a house is super super annoying

All of our shopping was of a grocery nature.

I hope buying a house is more of a pain than building an addition. We got the date for our hearing with the heritage committee. July 8th. :headache: Talk about a long wait! As the contractor said, now it is in God's hands. We'll just have to wait and see.

lol, I dunno, yours sounds worse. Plus it's a mess. How long will it take??

The first step is getting past the Heritage Society. Supposedly since they made the neighborhood a Historical District not one second story addition has been approved, so we have to wait and see.

The contractor says that it will be six months, so I estimate nine months. I also use the same math with the $'s quote! :lmao:

Yup that math sounds about right. What a pain!!!!!!!

I've got to say... with the buying process... the seller wanted a quicker close but SO GLAD we have the time now. This is not going easy.

Have had a little bit of news since then - nothing huge and figured I'd keep the drama down here (I hate feeling like a drama queen). A few other annoying things going on in general too, one I guess I will mention now...

Can you BELIEVE my husband got a juror questionnaire from the district court? Saying he is being considered as a potential juror? And right before another trip? NOT AGAIN!!! :sad:

Alison - July 8th? :faint:

I second that! July 8th?! My goodness! I'm sorry this is such a process for you

Yup! pretty insane huh? I think this is just the beginning because if we are approved the process will be even more involved. We will have to jump through every hoop during the process. Each and every little thing will have to be approved from the bracing of the second story to the electrical and windows. I think it will be very annoying. However, the improvement we have planned is pretty awesome!

I get a bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub, we have a closet with what they call "his and hers" wings, but they will be hers and hers wings. Fran is going to get a walk in tub like you see on TV and there will be an elevator and a dumb-waiter. Plus there will be a separate wing where Olga can live and we will stay every other night and our guests can stay. I really hope that they approve this, it will be much better than any place we could buy.
 
Oh and I forgot to mention that we have to give notice to the neighbors about the construction. The withchy neighbor next has vowed to fght us every step of the way

OMG sounds amazing! Who is Olga?

Geez! She will get hers...
 

Oh yah, a couple months ago we were over there out front talking and when we said something about the addition she vowed to fight us. Ever since then she has told every workman who has gone over there the same thing. We used to be friendk y but now we haven't said a word to each other. Funny thing is she wabts us to trim a tree over there and my answer is "once we get our addition, we'll trim the tree!"

OMG sounds amazing! Who is Olga?



Geez! She will get hers...

Olga is my dead FIL's cat. She was a one cat household kind of cat when he got her. When we brought her to our house she preferred to live outside in the rain rather than be in the herd. She has her own 2 bed apartment now. It's connected to our 3 bed apartment. We own the building and connected the two bottom floor apartments to make one big house. The apartment where Olga lives is our "guest house". PIO stayed there when she visited last Fall and Olga was very sweet and lovey dovey to her on her second night.
 
Ugh I spent all morning "upgrading" my work PC to windows 7

Anyways... what a sweet kitty! But what happened on the first day?? :)
 
Hi y'all! I think I'm finally getting caught up for work and home after almost back to back vacations. Remind me not to do that again! What was I thinking?

Also, buying a house is super super annoying
Hugs! It shouldn't be such an ordeal, but often it is. May it all go smoothly from this day forward!

:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: I had a co-worker who had inlaws with a huge house on the Battery in Charleston. She used to joke that they had to have permission from the historical commission just to use the restroom in the house.

Bad neighbor! Naughty, naughty! We had one of those when we lived in a gated community. Not only did she want to control what we did on the outside of our houses or in our yards, she wanted to tell us how we could decorate on the inside of our homes too!:sad2:

I feel your pain!

Olga is a beautiful cat. So happy that she and PIO got along on the second day. Now I'm curious as to how she and PIO got along on that first day. popcorn::
