Last night during games, my friend that works at the YMCA came in to talk before she went home. When she left we hugged, which then had me getting asked by every coach, player, and several parents that know me if that is my girlfriend. I guess the rumor mill will be spinning non-stop now.

I could make one too - I just thought the design was awesome!

Let it. Not your problem unless you want it to be.

Nope. They are treating members unfairly. Like I said, they've never done this before to those who have deserved the same treatment and there is nothing in the bylaws stating they can. It seems like the Chief and the Board are just doing whatever they fell like.

No contracts after today. The one guy who wanted to put a contract on the house without seeing it was turned off by the junk that is behind my property, down the hill, and in the woods. The old lawnmower he complained about specifically is down the hill and behind my neighbor's property. My relator told his realtor she would call the HOA and inquire about having it removed, but the way these people seem, they probably already moved on.

or maybe they just simply did not like the house and was trying to find a polite way to tell you

I had about 9 potential buyers request tomorrow, but with the 100% chance of rain all day, I asked my realtor to take tomorrow off the list and try and get everyone out on Sunday. I'm not going to keep my dog in the car for 10 hours out of the rain in some parking lot (middle SD has to work tomorrow and I'm sure after today, she wants nothing to do with watching another dog) nor do I want people tracking mud and wetness into the house. We only have 2 scheduled for Sunday, so hopefully that wasn't a mistake and they all reschedule.

My stress is going sky high now. I told my wife not to take my blood pressure at all.

I also told the realtor that we can only do one day each weekend since we need a day to do laundry, clean house, do shopping, and make lunches for work.

Feedback on issues helps a homeowner out to correct things.

I took my Son to Buffalo Wild Wings tonight for burgers. He said he no longer wants to play baseball as it is too boring to play. At least it took a year this time before he made me right again.

I hear that all the time from kids. Honestly, I have to agree with them. There is a lot of doing nothing during a baseball game.

That is the same complaint he had during two seasons of T-ball, 1 season of machine pitch, and 1 season of kid pitch. It's why I was very surprised that he wanted to play fall ball.

The oldest SD got in her, what seems like millionth, car accident tonight and my wife went racing to help her. Her Dad was supposed to be helping her buy a new truck on his holiday break for heading out for his next job.

Calm down and think about baby birds and butterflies.

That should help!

The only thing that will help is signing paperwork to sell my house at closing.

My wife sent me a photo of the oldest SD's truck. It is on it's side against a telephone pole with the roof dented in. She wasn't hurt, but is probably going to feel it tomorrow. The road is icy already. A witness helped her climb through the passenger door to get out. The vehicle is totaled.

Got up early to shovel the driveway and help my husband get out the door for work. It didn't start yet. I thought we were waking up to a lot of snow for some reason. I even got him a new brush for his car and ice melt.
