Well, the first step on the way to owning the house is complete. The previous owners and myself have come to an agreement on a value that we are both comfortable with. They are leaving me the fridge, stove, two sheds, all the drapes and curtains. The inspector will tell me if there is any trouble with wiring and the such. I already know it needs to be painted, but we have an early possession date and I would have time to do that before we moved in. All in all a very good deal for the area of the city and should be worth substantially more once it is painted and the velevet wall paper is removed. Not to mention the completion of a brand spankin new school only three blocks away. and Arianna's friends even live close by, Now the hard part, to make the deal work at the bank.

well, the early results appear to point to a minority liberal government. That is probably better than a Stephen harper Conservative majority. The conservative party is just a little too far out there on some of the issues. I saw another house yesterday, very very good location, nice yard, nice garage, new windows, old cupboards, old velvet wallpaper and very old paint, flooring ok, but would need to be replaced at some point, very nice layout though, new deck and big insulated and gyproced garage. Hmmmmm, what to do, what to do. I will have to decide tommorrow, if I want to put an offer on it or not.

Well, today was indeed an interesting day, starting with the crazy neighbour incident, the red light i drove thru, the interview from hell and finding out the person with the house I want to buy wants more than I am willing to pay. Thank goodness tommorrow is a new day!!!! Oh, yeah the interview from hell was for a job which pays more than I have ever made in my life, somewhere between $53,000 and $55,000.00 dollars.

I put an offer on a house today, hopefully it will be acceptable to the current homeowners, as it is a cute house with the right amount of space for us. We will need to put shingles on but I guess that is allright, since the inside of the house has been completly redone.

Tonight I will be overseeing the all Candidates debate for the Federal Election. I wonder if I shall be more enlighted once the event is over. I doubt it, my choices are usually based on who I won't vote for and then whoever is left is who gets my vote. The process of elimination I believe it is called. Tomorrow my real estate agent is back from his trip out of town, I am quite excited actually about looking at the house that we found tucked away in a quiet area of the east flat. Well tommorrow will tell if the inside is as acceptable as the outside.

Aah the rain, and more rain, and more rain. It was certainly the weekend for rain. Just a little too cold to really enjoy the camping experience, even in a camper. Crystal didnt seem to mind though. Now back to the city, back to work, back to looking for a house. I wonder how the job interview will go on Thursday. It is indeed looming closer. Well, I suppose in three days I will have my answer.

For some reason today has been Thursday for me. It has been Thursday all day, in fact I've told many other people today was Thursday as well. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that I have an In Motion meeting tomorrow which I am trying not to forget about. The meeting to make the masses move, a program to make us all fitter, reminds me a bit of the old participaction program. Just a new twist on the title. We shall see how the meeting goes tomorrow (the real Thursday), so far I have been less than impressed with their marketing tactics and less then impressed with the local coordinator.

I have a job interveiw next week. Director of Administrative Services Cooperative Health Centre. I cetainly hope the fact that is has such a long title means that is has a bigger salary.

Tommorrow the high speed and max are finally going to be connected. No more tying up the phone line or dealing with the slow pace of dial up. yay. I've sent my resume off today to a new more lucrative position. The deadline for applications is tommorrow, so if they are interested in interviewing me it shouldn't take long to hear from them. fingers crossed

There is only thing in life that is certain and that is change. Change is constant, why is it then that I feel so stuck at the moment. Stuck and unable to change certain things, unable to move forward, provide a safe environment or to enjoy the things that we do have. Why is it that everything seems so hard at the moment. I think I need some uplifting and motivational reading. Perhaps flow and synchronicity can be returned in harmony. ???

Why do you suppose our society has conditioned us to believe that people must exist in partnership. Partnerships where one individual is continually forced to put up with the obnoxious behaviour of another human being. To assist them in their search for ?? happiness? satisfaction? is futile, simply because they prefer to be unhappy or one wouldnt need to assist them to find what they dont want to begin with. Obnoxiousness should be considered an official form of abuse. It is certainly annoying. But then the bottom line is, we all have choices to make and we must deal with the consequences of those choices. Perhaps time will come when a new direction must be chosen, it is unfortunate that often the choices of one individual will have an affect on many.

I have a tooth ache, imagine that, you go to the dentist to fix your teeth and then they hurt when you get home. hmmm. I'm tired from listening to the neighbours try to kill each other in the middle of the night and we missed the hook up my high speed max tv internet guy again today. I think I am going to officially complain to Sask tel about the inefficiency of their tv/internet business. Do they think the whole world revolves around when their men can go to your house and hook up your internet or what!! I think the tooth thing is making me a little testy perhaps it is time to publish this post and take a nap.

Well, tommorrow will certainly be interesting. At one, I am scheduled for dental work. yuck, yuck and double yuck. I could use more sophisticated language to describe how I feel about that, but I think the point is made. Although later in the day I will have an opportunity to look at a house. One that is in a very nice location, close to the school and not too big. The creative thinking will have to come in to play, if I need a down payment, if I can qualify for zero down that is one thing, but coming up with 5% is another.

Well, who is the fishing expert now. The only one to catch any fish this weekend, waalah, me ha ha. I managed to land a White fish at Little Bear Lake. The camper is cleaned and ready for the summer, now I just need a truck load of groceries. Next weekend will be grocery weekend.
