[b]ARGH![/b] Grr! I need more damn boxes! I'm freakin out. I'm stressed, and i just wish we could pack everything up now and get moving [i]now![/i]

We haven't set a date yet. The house we're buying passed attorney review, we got the inspection done and everything. It all came out clear, we were just advised that we needed a new rough laid out, because around the back where the trees are and around the skylights it could start leaking soon. Around the skylights the seal that was put around it ontop of the damn shingles is wearing away, normal with skylights, it just needs redone, and the shingles on the back need redone because of the wear and tear (we got lots of trees! wee! ^_^ ) so yeah, the god damn realtor on the other side is taking their time getting back to us on that.

Stupid bitch is suppose to go to the people and say "You either take so much off the house price for it, or pay so much up for the roof (like half their way, half ours) or just say screw you basically" And the damn woman is taking her time. We had problems with her before and our realtor ended up having to call the house owners, lol, they thought everything was fine, they didn't know she wasn't returning calls. She got so pissed, just because her sellers found out she wasn't paying as much attention as she should have been because she's one of those that likes the million dollar houses <_<

So yeah, we're waiting on that then we'll have a moving date i guess. They have to be out by the 21st of decemember though because they signed the papers saying so Cool But still it's annoying me.

We're packing up minoer stuff though. Like the bread maker, deep fryer, the big ass kitchen aid mixer you see on food network, ehhh, fancy Rolling eyes Mom and dad with their kitchen gadgets. And then things like ornaments on the books shelves, desks, photo frames, some books, dvd's etc etc etc.

I need more boxes! Grr! They threw away a lot of them for things. You through away boxes when you order something online from gap, not for the bread maker and s**t like that when you plan on moving in the next year or two <_<

I need to go into school this week and ask everyone to bring in any boxs they might have. lol. I think i'll be making some stops around my friends houses this week, or anyones in general.

Sorry about the stress and all. You'll get over it. You're a strong gal *pats you on the back* Very Happy

...As for boxes. Check out like WalMart and such. They get loads of boxes and would be glad to get rid of some.. I know our Asda does Smile

Walmart sucks balls! I refuse to get anything from there, it's such a piece of s**t place and i hate it for all it so called stands for.

Target is my bitch Rolling eyes I'll be dropping by there and some places soon actually. But i'll be busting my friends and teachers asses for some to. More or less smaller boxes to put bits and pieces in and then them into big ass boxes for when the movers come ^_^

Gray! Ship me over a bunch of boxes you bitch! Just break them down so they're flat and i'll put them back into shape and tape the bottom and s**t.

Costco always has a mountain of boxes. Mostly for putting everything you buy in, but that's never stopped mother dearest from buying one or two cheap things and taking a pile of boxes. Razz

Oh yeah! We always get them to put inthe back of the truck for when we go shopping, so things don't go rolling around the back of the truck and everything is kept in place, lol.

I don't remember seeing them with 6 sides boxes, just the open ones missing and top and s**t. You know? Do they have the actually boxes and not just those open ones?

It depends. Sometimes you can find a whole bunch of the boxes they get stuff like display models out of or other things that came in a full box, instead of just the flat boxes cans n' whatnot come in. Grocery stores are even better if you call ahead and ask them to save some boxes for you or ask if they have any they haven't thrown out yet. Schools usually have a whole giant recycling bin for cardboard, too.

Hmm, note taking. Thanks babe. Half the stuff i know but the way things are they just go blank from my mind nowadays you know? Argh, i'm constantly having to ask the stupidest questions lately, makes me feel retarded Uneasy

The other day i paused when i was asked to give my signature...in the middle of writing it...i actually had to stop to think... :wacko: [i]busssssssssy![/i]



But yeah, i'm starting to find things to sell to. Things i'll never use again or want. Saves me having to pack them up, and can go towards my down payment for a car, which i desperately need! Sad So if anyone wants something, ask me, i might be selling it.

I'm selling so old books i got, real nice condition, i only read them once, never let anyone borrow them, and kept them after i read them in boxes in my closet nice and safe. f**king R.L Stine, lol, not the goosebump stuff, the older books. But yeah, good for present for any younger siblings really. ^_^ And i'm going to be selling a mini disc player, and more Uneasy

Help me raise money for a car! *is crying out of sanity*

Ah, I always have trouble, stress or not. Apparently my name starts with an M. :huh:

If you have any really old books, check n' make sure they're not worth anything. When my grandma died, she had a huge book collection that we sold in the estate sale and found out a few months later the same exact books in the same condition were going for hundreds on Ebay when we sold them extremely cheap. Grr!

I dunno how old the ones my grandmother had were. We didn't think they were that old. Hardcover fantasy books mostly. She had the whole Pern series n' stuff. Still kicking ourselves for not realizing they might have been worth something. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

[quote="ragingflea002 (Flea)"] Where ya movin to, Lasher? Stupid question, mebbe, but no one tells me anything. [/quote]
Stanhope, New Jersey

It's a more rural area than i am now. It's up in Northern/Western NJ, more so than i am now although i'm very much East here in New Providence. And it's even more mountainous which of course i love :wub:

It's a nice house as is, but not much suited towards our taste and how'd we have set things up. So once we're in and over the next two years there will be some major changes probably. We use to have this really nice garden in the UK with rose bushed everywhere, and all sorts. My loved doing that. And my stepdad made a pond in the back garden and bought my mom these Koa/Koi? fish and all that. So alot of the landscaping i think will improve. And Andy reqired our entire house himself to and him and his best mate redid the kitchen. Tiles, cabinets, counter tops, floor and all. He's a real handy man.

Past three years in this apartment, he's not be able to do anything like that. So he's gotten use to sitting on his ass everyday Laughing Mom and me make jokes he'll have to get up and do things once we move ^_^

And i like enterior design so i'm going to be picking at them for my own reasons. And although i'm not into gardening are hardcore handy man work, i always help out so i'm handy around Very Happy And just so you know sweetie, i don't think a lot of anyone new where i was moving, half my friends at school aren't sure. I just go around talking about packing up mostly. lol. I might have mentioned it here and there but nothing real official.

Here's a picture, i have a front view but i don't like it, they left the front so plan, It need more plants and shrubs <_< But the half side view with the two car garage is good Smile

lol @ Slet & Gray. you smartass, the current owners have two little kids dick wads. You should see the play area they got outside. If they leave it, we're selling it, if not *shrugs*

And the garage on the left actually will be mine i do believe once i get my car Smile It's right under my bedroom, and i don't think my parents would want to hear the garage opening real early in the morning or late at night underneath their room while they're trying to sleep. lol.

So yeah Razz i'll be parking either mazda3 in there if i ever get the money for a damn down payment <_<

Carter! AH! I might be moving then! Sad I'lll see what's going on okay, if i'm not busy hawling ass all over NJ, i'll drop by in the city and we'll hang out. I'm not sure if i'll be able to pull it off. Why don't you people come in the spring or summer when my schedule is open. Winter is buck ass crazy for me :wacko:
