tuesday

I closed on the house yesterday.
Everything went as planned.
I called to put the utilities in my name.
For the gas and electric, no problem.
The water company says I have to download an application then bring it to
their office. I explained that I already have an account and have had one for years and years.
Doesn't matter said she the evil, angry, resentful, miserable water company woman.
So I fought with my computer and printer for an hour trying to get the damned application printed.
At one point I felt like the most incompetent, loser there has ever been. Eventually after some cursing and self-deprecation I got the darn thing printed.
Then I headed up to the new house.
There was a card from the seller wishing me lots of great times in my new home.
I tried to send her a text thanking her but my phone died while I was typing. I worried she must think I didn't appreciate her note even though I did! (sent the text later)
So went about checking the house.
While in the living room noticed a puddle of water. I couldn't figure out right away
where it was coming from.
Finally figured it was a minute leak from the glass pane in the front door.................and then I went from room to room and noticed anything and everything that was wrong with the house and I wanted to sit down and cry.
Why didn't I see it when I bought it and how can I get this house in order before boyfriend comes home, and how can I get the other house ready to sell.
 I feel in over my head.
