APRIL 2005

 

 

FRIDAY APRIL 1ST , 2005

 

     It’s just Dyl and mom this morning, with Keith and Ian at the Museum of Science. I get him up at 0720, and he has his breakfast and gets ready for school. We head out to the bus stop at 0815 and he is off.

 

     Wow Mom is home alone. I busy myself straightening up the place and then start on cleaning out the bathroom closet. It is amazing the amount of expired medication you find when you do this.

 

I end up with another small bag of donations and a kitchen size bag full of trash. I shower and dress. Keith calls at 11:00. The bus will be back to the school at noonish, and I can pick up their stuff then. (They are staying to explore further and will come home on the T and I will pick them up at the Middleboro station.

 

I get their stuff and then head to Wal-Mart to do grocery shopping. (We haven’t gone in 2 weeks-house is getting bareJ) I get home around 130 and put the stuff away. Dylan gets home around 3:30 his usual time and asks if Ian and Dad are home. Nope, I tell him, but it shouldn’t be to long.

 

He does his homework, and asks to ride his bike, no problem; it may not be for too long, since Dad may call at any minute.

 

Well around 445 I call them, they haven’t even started for home yet. They will call when they get to Brockton on the train.

 

Dylan comes in around 530 (just a few minutes after Dad calls) and we get ready to go to the train station.

 

I was kinda disappointed they got home so late; I thought we could have a family evening, but that didn’t happen. Oh well.

 

Uncle lance called while we were out. He left me a message of Tony Stewart’s car doing his qualifying lap at Bristol. (He is there on my tickets) I hope he’s having a great time.

 

SATURDAY APRIL 2ND , 2005

 

Well it’s back to work for mom, and the weather is awful, but I’ll take it since it is NOT snow. It is expected to rain here for the next 3 days.

 

I had hoped to pick up the paint and the new doors for the exterior, but probably won’t get that done either.

 

 Ian has another sleep over party, this time at a friends house, for his birthday. so Dylan is an only child again.

 

Mom and Dad take him out for his choice of meals.. he picks Chinese food. while we are there he polishes off, 3 plate of the pineapple after dinner things (he saw them bring it to another table after their meal and his eyes lit up).

 

we head for home and order “Sharktale” on the On Demand movie system. ahhhh nice quiet night.

 

SUNDAY APRIL 3RD , 2005

 

     Ian said he would call when he wanted to come home… this call doesn’t come until 2:00, he had a great time, again the kid got no sleep, but once home he plops in Dad’s recliner and is out for 3 hours.

 

Dad and Dylan headed for Gramma B’s this AM to finish up the floor. so Mom has been cleaning again. and doing laundry.

 

MONDAY APRIL 4TH , 2005

 

     I place a call to the Sales Rep at the development to discuss the LARGE deposit they want. we get it worked out that it is only $1000.00 like when we bought our current home, since when we close we want to put almost 50% down.

 

And we will get an extension on the time to return the paperwork, since it is due in their office tomorrow.

 

     So I talk to Keith and let him know this, this is good for him too.. he will look at the papers in the AM and leave them for me to finish tomorrow.

 

 

TUESDAY APRIL 5TH , 2005

 

When I get home Keith has a question or two, about the house and I tell him I will call the Sales Rep and find out.

 

     I still haven’t heard from Valrico, tho I have emailed the HR department in Tampa and the Postmaster of the office I am trying to go to. No word from anyone. L

 

     But now I have 4 more posted as “In Review” which is a good thing. Even Keith has one like that… it’s in Orlando but at least it’s Florida.

 

WEDNESDAY APRIL 6TH , 2005

 

Finally got the results of the Blood work that we had done last week, I tried to get it on Friday but they still didn’t have them.

     The bad news is that tho Dr. S. is very happy with the results, we can not taper ANYTHING, this time; since the LDH reading climbed JUST out of the normal range. Fooey. Ian will be so disappointed. L Me too.

 

THURSDAY APRIL 7TH , 2005

 

Got a phone call from the Sales rep. he has our paper work and things are looking good. he answered Keith’s question about the home’s elevation (the design of the outside) he told us at first that we could not have the elevation B that we wanted because the house next door was to be the same house with elevation B but no bonus room, well Keith thought these 2 looked very similar, which is what they DON’T want. And sure enough, we CAN have it, because of that. J

 

 

What they wanted

us to get

The House next door

 

This is what we wanted and GOT  J

 We explained that these 2 look more alike than what we wanted even tho they were both B elevations

 

More good news, the local charity finally came and took all the donations away, we have a family room again. J

 

SUNDAY APRIL 10TH , 2005

 

The whole family spent the day in the yard, cleaning and burning, raking etc. Next is to trim the bushes out front and start painting the house (as much as we can until the windows get done)

 

Mom scooted out to the local Home Depot, and picked up the body and the accent paint for the outside of the house. I plan on starting with the dog house and then the shed and then the tree house, maybe by the time I get those done the *&*& windows will be here. After the windows go in Keith can finish the kitchen floor, and I can get that room put back together.

 

TUESDAY APRIL 12TH , 2005

 

 I receive a huge packet from Fed Ex.. it is 116 pages of options for the house. YIKES!!!

I look them over and it’s incredible. Keith gets home early, and after tucking the boys in, we look over the papers, briefly.

 

WEDNESDAY APRIL 13TH , 2005

 

Mom decided against working today, I am getting tired of 6 days a week EVERY week.

 

Well after the kids head out on the bus, it’s Keith’s idea to sit down and go through the options 1 page at a time so we don’t miss anything. YAAAHHHOOO! lets go. after a few hours and an additional $16,000.00 we have the house pretty well set except for the cabinets.

 

So I head off to the PC and book the 4 of us plane tickets to TAMPA to finalize all the options. see ya in a few weeks Dad.

 

I tell Ian when he gets home and with in 15 minutes he is back with all his clothes for the trip, and looking for a suitcase to put it in.

 

I’ll take lotz of photos of the model, so you all get to see it.
