Finally!

Well, after all the crap that has gone on this past week, I finally got the keys and can start moving in. Thursday my stuff gets delivered as well as the appliances and the couch. I guess I'll paint on friday and over the weekend. Or maybe next week. I'm tired so I'm going to watch some tv or read now.

Signed!

Well, we finally signed all the paperwork. Tomorrow afternoon we get the keys to the place after the money is wired over. Kind of weird that I have to wait for keys since last week monday when we went over to see the house with dad the seller was offering them to me. Oh well...Now time to get other things done. Bleh.

still waiting

I called him at 9:15 am since my cell phone has been dropping calls in Aunty Debby's basement. The only thing I got removed was the property taxes. He also has to remove the house insurance since they can't only collect house insurance. Apparently they can separate the two but they can only collect property taxes on their own. Weird. Anyway, he's also calling the title company to get the $50 funding fee waived since he had given them instructions initially to do so. And the overnight/express delivery has nothing to do with them sending the docs over to the title company but rather the fee for the title company to send them to the bank. And the same goes for the power of attorney. He said I have to file that with the title company. And apparently they let the credit union know long ago that they needed my transcripts and that it was the CU's responsibility to relay that to me. Seems a bit BS and scapegoating but what the hell, blaming others is always easier than admitting one's mistakes. They're still both on my blacklist.

Speaking of a blacklist, I have Cracker Barrel (cause they just have bad food) and the state of California (cause they have no welcoming signs or thanks for visiting signs). Actually, I was quite impressed with the State of Texas and their new rest stops. Very nice and clean. In fact, the nicest I've seen yet! Okay, gotta go.

waiting

Well, after waiting out the weekend to air my grievances with the loan company, I discovered that they don't even open until 9 am! So I left a message with the guy I want to complain to and so now I wait for him to return my call. I think I'll give him 10 or 15 minutes to call then I'm calling again. Meanwhile I'm really cold...It's only 50 degrees here.
