sometimes i just cannot understand the actions of some people.
if you yourself dont do it this way, why do you make others do it?
yes suggestions are fine, but not in the "im just saying this for the sake of a conversation" way. which is why im thankful for the current busy workload, it saves me from all these incessant chatter. i have my own ideas and i want to do my work thank you.
i know im stressing myself unduly over the house matters. but if i dont research now, nobody will do it for me other than my boy. since im available to research after work, why should i leave it as an impromptu job? i may not be free in the nearer future when the time calls, so i have to be prepared first.
this is my character. plus we dont have freakin loads of money to just find an ID and leave everything to him. we dont have a mum who lives with us so she can take care of the kitchen matters, the fridge the washer and part of the bills. everything is on us.
take it as it comes? the good and not too expensive contractor wont come sauntering your way if you dont look for him. you cant find him if you dun read. initiatives have to be made. im making them now. this is my way of doing things. im not going to look for 20-30 contractors/ID just to compare quality and prices, but i cant just settle for "the contractor below my house". hell, if im going to spend at least 15k on the freakin reno, it had better not be a lousy one.
on another note, i totally have no respect for bummers. bummers who come to work just to look for newspapers of the day to read. no papers? surf net. no internet? do something, act busy on the phone. what little achievements they have, they speak and walk loudly so everyone can hear. hello, stop complaining abt your low pay if this is what ure doing. u do monkey, u get peanuts.

its supposed to be a happy thing, yet, why am i so stressed over it?
we have spent months looking for it due to our stringent requirements. and finally when it comes along, we are doubtful.
money is the root of all evil, yet without money, things are slow to materialise. everything needs money. even though we are getting the flat below valuation, the cash we are paying up front is already hitting 10k. the agent's fees, the deposit. all cash.
and all we're getting is an empty shell, which needs little by little savings to make it into a real home.
im so stressed with all the upcoming payments. we're not downright poor, but how come we have problems with getting an out of town at one corner of the country's place?
i seriously need some space. and some air.
