Rumba Rue Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 It's happened! It's a go! Whoo- hooo! My big news: Boats and I will be moving sometime in November if not sooner to our very own HOME! Yup, ,we bought a home in San Marcos, on the borderline of Escondido! Actually, it's a manufactured home in a Senior Park (55 and older), 2 bedroom, 2 bath, good sized kitchen, with a sun room, 1608 sq. ft. (the sun room is not included in that measurement -as it was put on with no permit). There is a wonderful view of the mountains and a great breeze comes through! AND, my friends Dawn (who I share a vendor booth with at the Escondido faire) and Tony live just up the hill off the same road- just a couple of minutes away! We are right near the Clubhouse that is huge that has a big kitchen, tv room, billard room, gaming room, meeting room and library. The jacuzzi is indoors along with an exercise room. The pool is only three feet deep along the sides and five feet deep in the center- at least that's what we were told....at least it's a pool. Personally, I'm looking forward to some peace and quiet, with no loud parties til all hours of the morning, no burglaries/car break-ins/damage, no drug dealers, no south of the border types who have absolutely no respect for anyone else that live around them, no car alarms (do you know, there hasn't been a single day in the 13 plus years I've lived in this apartment, that some car alarm hasn't gone off!) I won't be needing my china cabinet, because there is a built in display area in the dining room,and we just gave our big oak entertainment center to some people down the hall, because there just isn't a wall big enough to put it. With so much room, we actually don't have enough furniture to sit on, with the exception of our futon that acts as our couch, I guess we will use some of our chairs we use for events, including our camping chairs....lol..... The only thing I am not liking is the foot feeling good plush WHITE CARPETING throughout including the bathrooms! We will have to take the carpeting out of the bathrooms and I suggested just putting down some peel and stick tiles till we can afford new flooring. I truly got sticker shock when I started checking on flooring.....whoa! To put vinyl or laminate throughout I was looking at damn near 9 grand! I think we'll have white carpeting for quite some time..... We got the home inspection today, most was in good condition....there seems to be a question about the plumbing as water isn't coming out of the shower head in the first bathroom and there's wetness under the house (which sits on piers); the foundation people come out tomorrow to check that and they will actually fix the foundation if it's not level from what I understand and see if they can figure out where the water is coming from and we have a plumber inspector coming out on Thursday to see what is going on. Hopefully this will be something the seller will have to fix, as the water heater had been leaking and that has now been fixed. We were also told the roof will have to be replaced in about 5 years or less...... Buying a house is a real eye-opener! It's been a rather stressful time, more for Boats than me....I'm just packing boxes..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barber-surgeon Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Relaxed and much the better/happier for blowing bloody hell outta some targets. The mate and I went to the local gun range and proceeded to give the people there a show on the use and 'accuracy' of blunderbusses. Knocked over one target and the lead spatter that was melted into the surface brought a smile to me lips. 'Twas a sight, 200 grains black powder and 10 .50 cal roundshot down the muzzle. Yes, we live-fire our weapons...to keep our hand in for repelling borders, ye understand. "Don't worry, it's not My Blood!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Mermaid Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 CRAPPY!!! It's almost midnight, I'm still at work, and I just found out the girl who has only been at my job for a year is now making more money than me. I've been working at this place for almost 5 years and I always get excellent reviews, work my butt off, take on extra responsibilities and I'm a team player. I think I might just be getting screwed! Actually that can't be, if I was getting screwed I might enjoy it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
