I wish! We could have started any time since I have been off the pill for quite awhile but I didn't want to be pregnant in WDW..esp. if I am lucky enough to have a rough bought of morning sickness. I tend to hold a lot of stuff in and block it out...so then it all comes pouring out at once. I went from crying over the ugly pink room with craploads of clutter in it to my gma dieing to my dad and the house to money worries. I guess that is what makes me a woman!
My friend told me that the other day!!! I can't wait to go. We are going to FL in 12/08 and 1/10 so I will have to make a special trip to Universal that Jan. DH has been dieing to go anyway!!!
Know anything about stenciling?? Do they even sell Mickey Head stencils?? Hmm.......
He had a realtor come a few months back and told him he had to paint a few rooms. There is also NO carpet in the family room. Just bare rough plank floor. My mom had pulled up the rug b/c our old cat had peed on it an then she got sick before they bought new carpet. It is hideous..not even hardwood. Just planks (I think the room used to be a garage) I still have to email his DGF and see if 2 weeks is really what he is thinking. Sometimes he has a warped sense of reality. He thinks the house can just "poof" go on the market but we all know it can't. He knows he will not make much ont he house, if at all. I think he plans to get 40K less then what it is appraised at b/c it needs sooo much work.
Nice idea to meet with the realtor as well. I also trust his DGF to tell me what the deal is.
Thanks Peeps for being there for me. You know I jump on here for a smile before I even call a friend. For some reason you guys seem so honest and non-judgemental. I just want you guys to know I appreciate it.
My DSis called me tonight. I told her about the house and she broke down. She has emotional problems and is just getting her marriage back together after dealing with a drinking/drug problem. She has a 2 yo DS. I love her but she is very unstable. MUCH BETTER then she was before she got help. Anyway, she just broke down. Saying when DD sells the house she won't have a home to go back to anymore. She was hysterical about missing my mom and how she never got to meet her son. It was heartbreaking. I know she is upset that DD has moved on so fast (started dating DGF 18 mon. after my mom died. They actually dated in high school too while my mom and him were broken up for a few months!!) Anyway, it's just so hard. I am the glue that holds this family together (like you Punkin!!) and I am sick of it. I feel like she is weighing me down like an anchor. I know it sounds harsh but it's just hard to hear the same things over and over. I give her my advice (she is seeing a therapist) but I don't think she hears me. I know she just wants someone to listen but it's an emotional rollercoaster for me to be on. I am just getting my life heading in a direction I have worked VERY hard for and it seems like everyone is pulling me back. She says going thru my dad's house is hard for her. I told her it is for me too but we have to do it. When I told her I am going to sell a lot of mom's knickknacks and stuff she got upset. I said we aren't selling the memories..just stuff. Stuff my mom would say is junk and to get rid of! She is 7 years younger then me so a lot more immature in life. She said she has a ton of guilt b/c she was a bad teenager (and she was!!
) and has all this guilt for being hard for my mom to deal with. I told her she needs to forgive herself (there was a great lesson on this on Oprah Friday!) but I know she isn't ready too. I am rambling...it just helps to get my thoughts out. Too make a long story short it is just hard b/c I feel as though I am being mentally drained. It's just hard. As soon as I can get through this house stuff I know a huge chapter will end. Thanks Peeps.
It even died when I tried to do a scan with the antivirus thing 
Things get so emotional when cleaning out a house after someone has passed away. My husband does it every day and he has cleaned out his own mother's house after her death. You're so right about the nic-nac stuff....it's just the material things, not the memories. I hope that things improve when the house is sold. 
I experience this whenever I eat more than a happy meal at McD's or Wendy's, etc. If it happened all the time - 
Yep, had that happen and swore I would never eat those again!
and 
The 150 capsules would last quite a while, long enough to see if it was really making a difference or not at least.
There is also a great play area, enormous aviary and birds of prey display. They also do special events, last week they did jousting!!!!
