Trying to buy a house, seller agreed to everything we had in a contract other than the 10 vs 7 day option. We wanted 10. Now that they agreed to the 10 day they want to come back with wanting 4k for some non real estate items that have been in the contract (fridge and entertainment center). First world problems.
Found a new construction house we love. New flood map in August places it in flood zone AE where as today it's in X.
I'm just ready to give up on buying.
This happened to the house that I bought in December 2016. We are 100 feet at the most from the levee and not under levee protection? WTF? Because of the fact that we were X and they changed it to AE we are slowly over the next 15 years getting a price hike. So the first two years it was $450, last year it was $500 and I am assuming it is going to go up again next year. Depending on the cost we have discussed getting one of those land surveyor people out so that they can do that bullshit to submit and state that we are not really in a flood area, we are protected by the levee and we are above the flood levels. Whatever it is called (I have it with my deed and shit filed away) costs about $500 but I think if it actually keeps us in a lower flood zone then it is worth it.
EDIT: Oh and house hunting sucks and I am sorry that you are having all these bullshit issues.

Yeah, I think you're talking about an elevation certificate. We have one from the foundation construction that says we're 2.7 ft above the base flood elevation. But then you have to get ANOTHER one on finished elevation to lower your flood insurance.
We'll get the lower rates too because we'll be grandfathered in, but our 5-10 year plan has us back in Louisiana (home) before our parents get too old. So I'm mostly concerned with what moving into AE does to property values.
First week of December I looked over at our dog on the couch and she could barely stand herself up. I took her to the vet the next morning and they said they don't see an ear infection, but it's probably a deep ear infection. After two weeks on antibiotics and a steroid she got a little better, but still not fully recovered. After another two weeks she's not as bad as she was, but still very wobbly.
Called the vet to bring her in, the referred me to someone that specializes in neuro. It's more than likely a brain tumor (estimated care in the 3-10k range). And I don't really know what to do with myself. This dog is mine and my girlfriends child, she's always been there for us and the sweetest animal that's ever walked. I can't really talk to friend about it because they can't see me cry. And I can't talk to her about it, because well, she's more upset than I am.
Grrrrrrrrr
Follow up on this. Dog's still around. She's loopy and kind of off balanced these days, but she doesnt even realize it. I know the stuff is like snake oil, but all we did was take her off the meds both doc's had tried for her and feed her CBD in her wet food every night.
I'm really not a believer in miracle cures like this, and I'm sure our time with her's still going to be pretty short lived. But she's back to her happy self now. And whatever caused her turn around I'm unbelievably thankful for.
Flash floods warning and dreams about my house flooding, only to wake up to enough water in my house to ruin my morning. My closet was wet, behind the bed was wet and Evelyn's closet was wet. We filled up 4 garbage bags and used 5 towels. So little, but so big of a pain in the ass.

So annoying airlines can adjust your flight schedule months after booking.
Have a wedding my wife is in on Saturday before Labor Day, a wedding that I am in the next day - 450 miles apart. Had a late flight booked for Saturday night, and I receive a notification today saying our flight out will be leaving two hours earlier than planned. Back to the drawing board.
5 days till closing and a mistake on my loan officers part looks like it's going to cost me 1300 dollars.
About to delay closing and use another lender.
I lost a house do to something similar. I was approved for the $0 down payment (some shit within the state) and he fucked up my shit, right before everything was to go through and we ended up losing financing and the house because of it. I ended up switching lenders (my new lender was amazing) and due to the delay the funding for the $0 down payment funding had run out. Luckily I had money saved and we didn't lose the second house but man, that is some shit right there.
Hopefully everything works out for you and you will just be in your house a week later.

Ugh. I hate it. And I wish I could just work with one person and they could deal with everything else. I've got a chain of 3 or 4 people all in on this and it's kind of annoying not knowing who point is and who I'm supposed to be talking to who about. Sometimes person A responds, sometimes person B, sometimes someone I don't know gets copied?
We had a set amount we were comfortable to part with to get in the house. And because initial estimates were so low we decided to contribute more. Now I'm basically gonna be pay check to pay check for a little while because the new amount basically empties my savings. And I have to buy a frige, which is the least fun thing to buy (other than tires).
I'm just trying not to show my ass too much, but I really just want to scream at someone I'm so upset about it.
Missed my flight to Los Angeles tonight due to, wait for it, a drawbridge. I waited 45 minutes for 2 barges to pass. Now I’m out $1000 because I had to rebook a flight tomorrow since JetBlue same day change policy applies to calendar days and not a 24 period.

Yeah that does suck. I'm sorry. We had to buy a fridge also, it was not fun and those things are fucking expensive. The one we got us noisy. The ice machine makes all sorts of noises. Don't get that one, it's a Frigidaire.

I’m so mad
That sucks
I assume Logan
Yep, got caught at the Chelsea bridge right before my parking lot. I’m now in Terminal B waiting on a Kelly’s Roast beef

I've never gone in and out of Logan, and at this point probably won't unless it's international.
I contemplated flying Alaska from Logan direct to PDX, but (a) it was more expensive than taking Southwest from somewhere else, and (b) nobody we know is willing to bring us to/from Logan

Ha! Thanks and noted. I'm actually between a Frigidaire and a Kenmore (which is just a rebranded LG) right now. Guess I know which way I'm going!
Just got ripped off for Cage the Elephant and Beck tickets. It was bound to happen eventually
What happened?
Found someone selling on the Facebook event page and when they got my payment they made excuses for why it was taking so long. I threatened to call the police and they blocked me. I'm more sad that I can't go to the show than anything else

That's pretty shitty. I put a curse on them. They're going to have a really bad week.

Solo parenting tonight. In the midst of cooking dinner and defusing a toddler breakdown, I knocked the blender carafe, half full of green shiz, out of the fridge and all over the kitchen floor. Nothing like cleaning up thick smoothie full of glass shards while trying not to burn Mac n cheese and stir fry.

I’ve played a few softball games for a friend’s slow-pitch team the last couple weeks. It’s nice to play again but after last nights game I’m starting to realize why these teams have such a problem getting enough girls to play on regular basis: The guys.
Don’t talk to me like I don’t understand the sport that I have just told you I played competitively since I was 7 years old. Don’t tell the girl who is your catcher how impressed you are that she knew to take her mask off to make a play, she is clearly an experienced catcher who could make a pin-point accurate throw from her knees. Don’t tell your outfielders to move in only when the women are at bat (but also I experienced great joy when one of my male counterparts did move in and then the girl absolutely jacked it over his head and out of running range).
Another thing that absolutely blew my goddamn mind: there are modified-pitch leagues. But only for men. I would KILL to be able to play not slow-pitch softball.
So mostly I’m just mad that men have come in and taken the one sport I can still play at 32 years old.
Car’s in the shop. Got it towed yesterday but only by 3pm today did I get any kinda possible diagnosis. They’re honestly not too sure what the problem is, so I gotta try and pick it up tomorrow and drop it off at the Ford dealership on the other side of town. They think it’s electrical though.
There was a recall notice on a part that they never followed up on with me, so I’m hopin’ that will fix the issue. Either way, I have really started to dislike my car since he first recall notice I received.
Need this shit to get fixed fast though so I can get to work and my new school classes startin’ next week!
So today is my last day on Blood Moon. We wrapped. I had a new job lined up for Monday. Just got pushed 3 weeks and my offer got pulled. Needless to say, I might be freaking the fuck out right now.
My mom is hosting a family get-together next weekend. She's told the gf and I multiple times about it, over the last month or two.
Her sister and sister's husband are coming up from Florida. They're both pastors with some rather horrid world views. I've hated my aunt/her husband for decades, and my gf wants nothing to do with them either. My gf has two gay uncles, my aunt is wicked homophobic.
