{Repost From Late Last Night}
Well... we just got back a bit ago. We drove up to New York. We got to pay for the boat. It was exciting. However, we never got to go out to the boat. By the time we got there, it was like 2 in the afternoon. Then the seller talked to us, (to my husband but I had to stand there), for like 4 hours; and he really wasn't talking to me. When Alan left the boat, (one of the seller's other boats), the conversation was gone, and when I tried to talk I was talked over. It was so frustrating. I mean he's a really nice guy. He's offered to let us use his other boats to get our boat ready. And when we were leaving to get food, he offered to have us over to his house to have a BBQ tonight. But we needed to get going, Alan needs to work tomorrow and with my social anxiety the idea of going to his house and being basically forced to talk to his girlfriend for who knows how long had me freaked! What am I supposed to talk about with a non-boating homeowner from Queens in her 40s? She seemed cool when I met her but not that cool, and no offence to her, but for me to hang out with a stranger, we need to be long lost soul mates.
So, next week we're going to need to go up and get her ready to come down. And if we wanted to we could stay on that guy's other boat. It's a 50 something foot power boat... It has more luxuries then I'll ever have... dish washer, washer/dryer, refrigerator, stereo system, tv and dvd... Now I have some of that but this place was crazy... but there's a good chance that we would get things working by the second day that we could just stay on our boat...
And my brother-in-law wants to come up to see the boat next time we go. He's super cool! He's done some small budget indie movie stuff. Did a short that got into sundance festival a couple years ago. He almost had an entry for this year too... He used to run a club/art gallery in Barcelona Spain. He's just a really cool cat! And I love his fiancee too! I couldn't find a cooler chic-e for him!
Now if I could only find the girl of my dreams... and be the girl of her dreams... and the family and life of her dreams...

So, today I'm back to cleaning house. This place gets so messy so fast. And also today, we need to give the car back. But on the upside, one of my daughters is going out for a few hours. My MIL has been taking my 7 year old to a kid's yoga class on Wednesdays.
This weeks schedule:
Today: Cleaning and Kali's Yoga (and also the new Ghost Hunter is on).
Fri-Sat: The girls are going to the sitter's for a b-day party. (Alan works)
Sun: We're going in Delaware for my sister's b-day (Alan works)
Mon: Kali is going to Grandma's till Wed, (she's got an eye DR appt on Tues and her Yoga on Wed) (Alan works)
Tues: We are supposed to go to NY
Wed: Kali is supposed to come home, but we'll be in NY, (We need to see if she can stay the extra day of go to a sitters)
Thur: We'll come home
Fri, Sat, Sun: Alan works
And the 31st is Alan's b-day we would like to have the boat down here or have be bringing it down. I want to have a BBQ the following friday for him, (June 3)... but I don't know if or how late he'll be working.
This month is being... interesting...

Corsair, She's a cutie. LOL! Alan is open to others being in our family. He's also in love with her, too, but we're not limiting ourselves to her... she knows how we feel, and has made her choice to keep us as friends and that's it.
pixiygurl, it was really frustrating when he did that. He is a mechanic and has been working on boat sail and powerboats for 10 years... but still! He's a nice guy, but not someone I could really hang out with. I'm glad that it's him that we're buying a boat from, and I'd love for him to see the boat when we're done making changes to her, but I'm looking forward to not feeling like I'm being talked around too.
tilpacer, I know that proverb. I believe it is Chinese. And I do have to admit, it fits my life well, it is... interesting... LOL!
Aaronsrod, thank you for following the continuing adventures of... "oh my god what is that!" LOL! I'd love to make it out your way sometime...
