Definitely Go! That will show him what you have to do in the house with Lilli when he is away and it will show him that you can be independent and strong! It's a perfect opportunity!

 

[SBB]

Go go go!!!!

Yeah, that's the hard part... the one on the busy street is beautiful, but is it worth the hassle and the noise...and we would be so tight for cash. being an older home we are scared the pipes could go bad or something, and we truly would NOT have any money to fix them.

The one in River Heights (the small one) is not my favorite, but could we fix it up and resell it for some good money...presumably. And with the extra money we save, we can redo the kitchen, landscape, etc etc..& we wouldn't be strapped for cash and we could afford luxuries...and it's on the SAME block as my mom and dad!

The Nibley one isn't huge...but nice size and attached garages are wonderful for our HORRIBLE winter weather. AND IT'S NEWer, so no worry about things breaking down, really.

Suz-we weren't really in a rush until recently. We are soooo house hungry. We feel so resentful paying rent when we can use it as forced savings once we are in a home...ya know? Building equity would be nice.

I posted and was like WOOOOOAH! I am not caught up....

 

[Onelildream]

Jess-might do him some good to worry about you! Maybe you could casually mention how much you;d like to "run away with him" lol. I'm only kidding you know...but seriously, not that I believe in an eye for an eye, but going on a trip with a man and having Joe watch lili, he might be a little more appreciative when you return

 

[SBB]

^^^ exactly!

I didn't know you rented. Still better to waste a bit of money and find the right house than be saving money and regret rushing into it. Nibley sounds like the middle one and least compromise to me..

I wouldn't play off the leaving with your friend thing as a bit of revenge though... it won't help the situation any to play those kinds of games as much fun as it may seem to make him squirm.
I DO like the idea of taking a break for you and leaving him to watch Lili (hey, didn't he just complain that you don't do enough stuff for yourself? lol!).
I wouldn't want it to interfere with counseling though.

 

[SBB]

No I don't think Make it a revenge thing at all. Just going for a week with a man and leaving him to cope might be enough to make him think a bit harder...

Hey Chell, I did not like the 1904 sq ft house at all. The next bigger one up is okay, decent size lot so the yard is nice. BUT the big one you showed first makes those two (the interior) look way worse.

sucky! wish you never saw the busy street house so you wouldnt be tempted!

 

[Onelildream]

so true, Casey. I just need to forget it. Hubs came home for lunch and threw in a few wildcards too. ugh!

 

[lisaf]

I sent Cat a FB message a few days ago just letting her know I've been thinking of her and hope she's ok.
She replied:
"thanks Lisa. We are hangin in there. Kinley had a really good day today. Say hi to the girls for me. hugs"

 

[kcw81]

That's good Lisa. Haven't heard about cat in awhile.

I donated some more milk today to this lady who just adopted a 1 week old boy. I guess she is taking drugs that enable her to actually breadtfeed a little. Crazy! But it's not enough and she doesnt want to use formula yet. She didn't talk too much about it- but I wish I knew the whole story! I think she might be single too cuz no dh or oh was mentioned. She had her dad with her. She might be gay. Anyway I wish I could have seen the baby!

 

[lisaf]

aw, good of you to help out! It feels so good to pass on the milk to someone who will use it!

 

[kcw81]

I know! And I hate to throw it out. How weird that she is lactating but wasn't pregs!

 

[lisaf]

lol, I'd think it was weirder if she was taking medication to lactate without a baby to feed

 

[Peach Blossom]

Chell, I agree with Suz, don't compromise for money's sake. Go with your heart. Your home is such an incredibly important thing that you don't want to regret your decision ever.

If I went away with my friend then of course it wouldn't be a revenge trip, but it might do Joe good to be on the other side of the fence for a while. If only it weren't for a while week... So tempted to go. Also a bit worried that if I do go and get drunk and seduced by the razzle dazzle of Monte Carlo that I may end up doing stupid that would make me no better than joe. The theatre is an incredibly seductive world to live in. When I was working actually in the theatre on the shows I was constantly tempted by many beautiful and handsome actors. I never wanted to do anything stupid which is why I took the job in the office. Less temptation. As pooh Bear would say "think think think"

 

[Peach Blossom]

There ate women out there who can lactate and don't have a baby... I watches a documentary once and this woman stimulated herself in to lactating and is now a wet nurse... Wierd just plain wierd...

 

[lisaf]

Could you go for only part of the week? I mean you can fly back on your own right?

The temptation aspect occured to me, especially because you are hurt and angry and may not feel much loyalty right now. If you can maybe minimize or avoid alcohol would that help?

 

[Onelildream]

Hubs and I talked more tonight. My brain is fried....but we might just buy a house that is cheap right now, fix it up and sell it in a few years... 5 years tops. Then we should have a better down payment for something else, or, who knows, we might move out of the valley... forced savings, something fun to do, and lots of money to mess around with if we go cheap. I just have to face that we cannot afford my dream home (right now) on a single salary... And I will not go back to work JUST to make a house payment...

 

[Onelildream]

yeah jess...if you go NOOOOO ALCOHOL!
