mixed feelings atm...
we bought a house. correction, mom-and-dad-in-law bought a house for us. they wrote us a check, we pay them back. it looks smaller from the outside than it really is. 2 bed/1 bath, eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, laundry room, screened porch and 1 car garage off the back with room for 3 more cars outside and alley parking
i heard from one of my numerous cousins today, he joined the army and will be in ft. leonardwood for basic training in july... his sister didn't reconize my number and called to bitch me out for trying to steal her boyfriend or something. had i not been in the middle of sfk with my hubby i would have told her to mind herself when she doesn't know who's on the other end of the phone, but i was too busy trying to concentrate on 2 things at once - something i'm getting progressively worse at. i ended up telling her to call me back in about 10 minutes when my cell phone minutes were free and going back to my game, but we died anyway
and no one ever called back. figures... i didn't call back myself because i was getting too pissed off about the whole thing and as rude as she was i don't like making my cousins cry and i would have been mean. i don't put up with that shit from them, especially since they know better
my excitement about the house is winning the battle over my irritation at my hag of a little cousin though, so i'm off to go match paint for my baby boy's new room
edit: rather than make a whole new entry i'm just adding to this. my paint-matching was a huge success, walmart has the perfect colors for what i want to do in that room. i wasn't feeling the thrill at first but now i fear i'm going to go insane with happiness before the closing date. i gotta get in there and paint! and pull up the carpet so i can have wood floors!!
