I had an extremely eventful last 24 hours, my head is spinning. I don't even know where to begin.
Well, I will begin with the thank you's and well wishes! Cadet, it's even much nicer than the picture! Party at my new house!
I am getting my own home inspector, absolutely. I should also be out of attorney review at the end of the week. When I was pulling up to home yesterday my landlord texted me he wanted to meet with me. I knew my house was under contract. So, he handed me some BS letter from his lawyer which holds no water to vacate by Oct 1st. He did say his offer still stands for the 5K. So I decided once I know I am safe, after I am out of attorney review and the inspection is done, I am going to give this offer: Take the 5K, be out by Oct. 15th, those 2 weeks being rent free. This will give me time to do my renos and move. I think he will take it.
I am not taking much money from my dad and stepmother. I withdrew from an IRA I had from an old job. Took the penalty. Set aside money for taxes. It was advisable by my father and my accountant. They will help down the road with some expenses.
We will see how things go today. I am pretty excited and I am just trying to keep my fingers crossed that the other shoe doesn't drop.
Now, my "love" life:
HC texted around 8pm last night " How's your week?". I did not answer until this morning with a "very eventful." no response of course. Bandguy ended up being able to get together last night. So we had a date. Turns out he is even better in person than he is on paper. So cute, so smart, so sweet. We HIT IT OFF. He even texted me first thing this morning and our date is still on for tonight. Don't worry guys, I didn't sleep with him. Did we kiss? Oh yes. We even cuddled. And I had the saddest realization. HC and I never cuddled. And I am a cuddler. I realize we have no physical contact outside of sex. Anyways, we seem to connect more and be on the same level, wanting the same things, he likes keeping in touch and is excited to see me again tonight for our originally planned date. He is a real sweetheart. I can tell you, he is a long term guy. Not a player.... and does like having a girlfriend. He grew up in a family that was very close with parents who have been married for 56 years. I think he is still getting over what happened though. he accepts it, but can't wrap his head around it. I get that.
This is a weird position for me I never imagined being in. I don't even know what to do. HC does not communicate at all. After a week he asks me how my week is. I say "very eventful" and he doesn't even bother asking what happened? Just radio silence. If I cut it off, I want it to be because it isn't working, not all because I am interested in someone else. Bandguy is going to be away for a long weekend. HC has not asked me out. And I am not asking him out.
What the heck do I do? This guy, on paper at least, because I don't know him that well yet, is kind of exactly what I am looking for. But I can't jump the gun. But if I was asking God for things lately, I would almost think he is plopping them in my lap. FINALLY. Too much seems to be going RIGHT in the past 24 hours, it is scaring the sh!t out of me.
Waiting for the other shoe to drop.
