happy new years!

Mr. Bojangles is doing well. He makes me happy.
I love him. And I think I make him happy too.

I have a lot of new projects in my mind for the New Year.
I swear I'm going to get the junk room cleaned out, painted, new flooring and trim put in......and make it a place for me to call my own.
Sound selfish?..................OK........ I'll share it with daughter and kitties.

And even if it kills me I'm going to organize all my important papers.
I bought a filing cabinet months ago.
It's still empty.

I called the condo realtor people and asked for my earnest money back. The contract has expired and I don't wish to renew or continue it.......I felt kind of bad. She was a really nice lady.........
The bank lady was kinda bitchy when I told her I did not want to pay to continue to lock in my interest rate.........she locked it in for free for 3 months. That was nice of her........... I thanked her, again.
She said she'd be sending me a refund for the appraisal/inspection money I gave to her...at least I think that's what it was for.... ..................so two checks coming back to me.....YAY!
I think the contract with the realtor listing our house ends some time this month. I'll be relieved when the sign is gone.
I'm looking forward to spending time on my deck this summer, and to planting flowers and vegetables in my yard.........and in planters on my deck.

I think I was ready to walk away from this house.............but I'm kind of glad I'm not gonna be......

I have a little trip( very little) with boyfriend coming up........it was my Christmas gift to him. I think it's going to be fun.......we're both looking forward to it. I'll tell you about it when it's over......

Main thing I liked about this post is that Mr. Bojangles is doing OK. I was worried about him. Hope you have fun on the trip.

I have a filing cabinet, from the years I had a business, all the papers from a business sold 17 years ago are still in it and all new stuff grows on a mountain on my desk, what falls on the floor gets tossed in the garage.

Once a year I clean the whole desk off, most of it also goes in the garbage, yet life goes on just fine.

I think if I ever sell my place that I'll be my own realtor, sold my last two places that way and it went just fine and saved me a lot of money.

But it's not likely I'll ever sell it, I'm comfy here and it's free and clear.

* Go to the Grand Canyon

Been there, done that, a couple of times.

* sing one song with nephews band

Now that's a hard one, I'm good at karaoke but I suck trying to sing with a band.

* Be a beachcomber by the ocean for a month.

Ah, well, that's my lifestyle.
