[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT house

Sun Aug 6 14:38:44 UTC 2017

Someone tried that with me when I moved, but I told him I had no more money
and I only paid what he had quoted me. He said he didn't know I had so much,
and I pointed out that I told him everything I had, and it wasn't my fault
that he sent two girls to move me in. They  can't lift as much, and they
tried to charge me by the hour. I think I would report your realtor to
someone, because there are very strict guidelines to classify something as a
bedroom. It's also suspicious that they wouldn't let you come back. I would
have said, no coming back, no  sale. They would have changed their tune in a
hurry.   
Hope  you get all your things brought in soon.
Jan

Hi Cindy,

How is the house hunting going?  Have you found it and moved?

If you read my post from last night, you know I was scammed.  Remember I
said storage on the second floor with 3 bedrooms on the first.  I kept
asking to go through again, but was told I had to wait.  I went in 2 days
before the closing, and guess what?  There are only 2 bedrooms on the first
floor.  I asked the realtor where the third bedroom was and she said on the
second floor.  I said, "what in hell are you talking about?  Nobody in their
right mind would think that unfinished space is a bedroom."  I've been taken
with nothing to do about it.  I am trying not to say I hate the house and
what it represents, but I do.

I am trying to make the best of it.  My handy man is installing a stacking
washer and drier in the corner of my kitchen.  This means he has to do
electrical, plumbing, and venting work.  I have given the main bathroom to
the cat.  There is no good place for the litter box without going up or down
steep steps.  

The mover charged me almost twice the amount he estimated.  Then, they put
everything I had in the storage pod in the garage instead of in the house.
They said they would come back after convention to put the stuff in the
house.  When I called to schedule this, the owner kept trying to make it my
fault.  I'm still trying to get the stuff into the house.  

When I got back from the convention, I could barely walk.  I limped badly to
and through the airports.  The guy that helped us was already pushing
someone in a wheelchair, or I would have taken that option.  I will
certainly be in better shape next year if I go, because I will know how much
walking is necessary.

Needless to say, I haven't had time or energy to work on any craft projects.
At least, I know where the craft bins are.

So, I hope you are extremely vigelent when you buy your house and move.

Take care,
Bernice and the sweet Octane.

Okay, Bernice, I am calling on you to send up prayers for us. We have
cleaned out and sold our lake house and are in the process of doing some
remodeling and packing up our house to put it on the market (hopefully in a
couple of weeks). We had one place that we put an offer in for but then
backed out. Another place that we really wanted, the older lady is having a
hard time letting go (apparently her kids have been after her for three
years to move in with one of them) and really liked her place and it was
priced right but she doesn't know when she will be ready to sell.

So, now we are having to start the looking process over. It is difficult to
find something the size we need, in our price range, and within paratransit
range.

Cindy

It is a cape, but the upstairs isn't finishe all the wayd. It has a floor
and walls, so it will be good for storage.  Off the kitchen there is a
fantastic family room with windows on 3 sides and a sky light.  The sun was
pouring down through it when we were there.  Most of the windows are bay
windows with room to display lighthouses.  The master bedroom has a full
bath with a standup shower, not a tub.  That's okay because with my awful
joints, I never get down in the tub anyway.  There are 3 bedrooms.  I will
make one of them into a laundry/office.  The livingroom has a fireplace with
mantle for more lighthouses.  I can't wait to start packing and getting back
in there to see where I want all of my furniture.

Thanks for asking.

Thanks, there are so many tings that have to fall into place.  It is like
building a structure.  If one block falls the whole thing collapses.  It is
looking good for now.

Hi Bernice,

I am so happy for you!! God was obviously listening to your prayers. 
Selling a house and purchasing a new house is a big job and apparently you
were up to the challenge. I do hope that moving goes smoothly and that there
are no major repairs that need to be done on your new house.

Lots of luck to you and I look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Have a great day!!
Cathy F
