Daddy, Dearest

Well, we got a counter offer on our first offer.  As background, the house is in a good neighborhood, but not on a good street.  The seller had vacated the house but left some furniture there to help with the “showing” of it, I guess, we noticed that if want to keep the house we will need to hire the insulation removal seattle company since the house definitely needs some fixes.  If you regularly watch HGTV or similar programs, you know what I’m talking about.  The house has been on the market over a year.  We love the house itself, but not so much the location.  We offered his asking price if he’d leave a few pieces of furniture behind.  Now be mindful, we didn’t NEED these items, but we liked the style and they fit in with the way the house had been re-done.  His counter offer was to let us have the 5 items we asked for, but pay an additional $15K.  No way in All the drugs are clinically tested http://canterburymewscooperative.com/item-3860 on line cialis to ensure they work as effectively as you expect them. This is because ED has a viagra prescription for woman huge psychological impact on men. Further, you need to mark that you are using this tablet.Do not use this medicine, if you have heart http://canterburymewscooperative.com/item-5561 buy generic viagra problems, you can take treatment for erectile dysfunction have also been proven to work wonders by increasing the flow of blood in the body which further fills the penis with blood and helps man’s sex organ to attain required strength and durability required for the phenomenon. In the viagra india prices medicine world you have remedies to this problem also. hell.  We could buy them brand new at less than half the price.  I was all for countering with a reduced offer without the furniture, but Jeffrey is leaning toward letting it expire and offering on the other house.  After work, he went back today to look at both houses and take pictures.  I’m really torn.  I like the house we made an offer on better, but I like the street and lot of the other house just as much.  It’s a real pity they can’t be transplanted.

We’re still discussing what we want to do.  One major factor is that the not-so-nice house with the great yard and street location has oil heating.  And it’s an OLD oil furnace.  The family living there reports that their heating bill comes to about $2K a year.  If we opt for this one, the first thing we have to do is convert it to natural gas.  Although, thanks to Bush and the current economy, that may not make much of a difference in a few years.

This weekend, we spent most of our time across the water on the Kitsap Peninsula (home of one of the only temperate rain forests in the world), and most of that time was in Bremerton.  They had their Gay Pride fest yesterday.  It was a rather small venue compared to what I’m used to, but apparently they had a very good turnout, with people drifting in and out all day, including us.  We drove around the area looking at neighborhoods and houses on the market.  We did most of this on our own because our realtor was manning a booth at the event.  I was glad to see that SLDN was represented.  Apparently, there is a vibrant gay community on the peninsula, and there are a lot of military people who are part of it.  Quietly, of course. 

Today, we had our realtor available and we looked at 10 or 12 houses in a couple of neighborhoods we liked, and found two houses we both felt would suit us nicely.  One edged out the other slightly, and we put in an offer on it.  Beautifully modernized 1920s house, but a very small lot and the landscaping needs some work.  The other house is almost the opposite in a slightly better part of the neighborhood, a wonderfully landscaped large lot, but the house needs a bit of work to get it up to where it meets our needs.  We put in a bid on the house that’s already modernized but needs some yard work, including privacy fencing.  I’ll have more follow-up on this as it progresses.

I suppose I should explain that we’re looking in that area due to our expectation on where Jeffrey will finally end up working, and the economics of the situation.  Transportation will not be that much of a factor.  If he winds up in Seattle, he will take the passenger ferry across the Sound and then a bus or walk.  If he winds up in Tacoma or Olympia, that’s a 30 to 45 minute drive south.  My biggest consideration is access to broadband, since I’m working from home for the foreseeable future.  The neighborhood the two houses we’re interested in is currently undergoing a sort of urban renewal, which we don’t mind being a part of.

I’m going to have to start titling my posts differently. I’m starting to lose track of the days.

One of the great things about the northwest is the lack of light pollution. I can see the stars at night, again. In south Florida, the only places you could really see the stars were out in the Everglades, or a couple of miles off-shore in the ocean. We’ve had great weather ever since the day we arrived, and clear skies at night. I’m reacquainting myself with the constellations.

I’ve also rediscovered KIXI, a local AM station that plays 40s and 50s music, and the old serial radio shows (like The Shadow) at night. They have on-line streaming, so I used to listen to them occasionally back in Florida, but it’s nice to be able to listen to them live again.

Ingredients were same this time, but they used advanced technology to bring an effective version in the market. discount viagra levitra They work by blocking order cheap levitra see here the action of cGMP. In clinic, a number of conditions canadian viagra sales can cause painful sex. Although the condition is not fatal in any way, it’s generic viagra from canada check availability conceivable that interpersonal issues amongst you and your present partner could add to the issue. Our agenda for tomorrow is Jeffrey and I do our work, then happy hour at our favorite hangout (Changes), dinner at Pasta Bella, possibly the best Italian restaurant in the nation, and then spending the weekend looking at more houses over in Bremerton.   About Pasta Bella, we recommended it to our friend Chris from the Flamingo Freedom Band, and he sent us a text message after he visited it saying “Thanks for sending me to Pasta Bella”.    That’s high praise, indeed.

Bill and Esther seem to enjoy my cooking. They have “loved” everything I’ve made since we arrived. I know how people will sometimes tell little white lies to spare one’s feelings, so I take it with a tiny grain of salt. It’s nice hearing, anyway. I’m just waiting until I have a chance to make my nationally famous enchiladas. I haven’t had a person yet who has tried them and not swooned in near ecstasy.

I think that’s enough for now. I may not post again until Sunday, so enjoy your weekend.

Today we entered the Bluetooth age.

We’ve been resisting for quite some time, not really seeing a need for it. Our requirements are simple, and email and/or a quick phone call are usually enough. We don’t use the internet browsing features on our cell phones, since we are almost always within easy reach of one of our desktop or laptop computers. Very rarely, we will text each other, usually when a phone call would be too intrusive or it might take a while to see and respond to email. Today we gave in and bought Bluetooth headsets for our cell phones. We haven’t had a land line for years, so cell phones and computers are our main lifeline for communications.

Actually, it was more of a necessity. Washington State recently enacted a law prohibiting talking on the phone while driving, unless it was “hands-free”.

(Sigh…) Now I have to learn the voice command functions on my cell phone, which I’ve avoided for years.

Today was a slow, leisurely day. I got to sleep in until almost 8 AM and then enjoy my morning coffee and newspaper. Jeffrey started feeling a little antsy, so we decided to empty some more stuff out the cars and put it in storage since they were also supposed to get some detailing on the next day, and then check out some neighborhoods for houses.

Gawds, I love seeing Mt. Rainier in the south dominating everything for hundreds of miles around.

That part was a little depressing. We saw some great houses, but they weren’t in the best of neighborhoods. One of the houses we were interested in was holding an open house, so we decided to check it out. It’s in a nice neighborhood, has a great yard, and we can make do with the room, though I thought it might be a bit small. The only real drawback we could see was that it was on a fairly busy street, but there is plenty of street parking.

I’m not too worried about where we choose to settle, since I’ll be working from home and my only requirement is the availability of a broadband connection. My preference would be to live a little closer to downtown Seattle since we like to attend the theater (we were regular season ticket holders before we moved to Florida), and most of our friends are either in the downtown area or north. Tacoma is to the south, so to entertain, as we like to, would make it more difficult.

But enough about that. When we find an area we can agree on, and then a house we can agree on, I’ll post more.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, we’re staying with Bill and Esther. They have a nice 4 bedroom/2 bath house that they are kindly letting us use a part of while we get things situated, one of the nicest things is that they let us borrowed one of their comfortable mattress toppers. The bathroom situation is working out surprisingly well, since we have three men sharing one bathroom and the sole woman getting the other one. The bed we are using is a bit small, but we’re getting used to it.

They have nice sized back yard, already fenced, so our dogs have some room to play in a secure area, though we spent part of yesterday putting chicken wire around the bottom of most of the fence to keep the dogs from slipping through gaps or digging next to the fence in their seemingly eternal quest to explore the neighboring environs.

Yeah, yeah, I know I didn’t post the next day like I promised, but I had to set up a computer center and try to get situated to work remotely. That took most of the day. Anyway, it’s now Saturday, July 12, for at least 10 more minutes.

The drive from Elko was surprisingly smooth. Heading north out of Elko was a bit hairy — the first half-hour or so of driving was through VERY curvy mountain roads. Then it straightened out for a couple of hours until we hit Boise. No major problems with the radio. We were too busy trying to handle the road conditions to worry about intermittent radio signals. Stopped for gas somewhere outside Boise (I think it was in the area of $4.15 to $4.20 there), and headed north and west. Crossed a good deal of northern Oregon and crossed over into Washington on either I-82 or I-84. Stopped for more gas just past Pasco. Last gas stop before we hit the metro Seattle area. A few more hairy stretches, crossing the 45th parallel (half-way to the North Pole), and then some smooth sailing heading down out of the mountains into the (relative) sea level environs of Puget Sound.

As I noted before, we hit the western edge of Bellevue just after rush hour started to get going. About an hour or so later, we reach the storage facility we had chosen for the moving truck to unload our furniture until we find a permanent home.

Early post today.  Most of yesterday’s drive was like a trip down memory lane for me, but this time I was driving instead of mom or step-dad.  It was a trip seeing city names and historic markers that I hadn’t even thought about since I was a kid and we moved to Montana when I was 12.  Rawlins (the town where part of “Brokeback Mountain” takes place), Jim Bridger (who was very important in the early West and who I had to learn about in grade school), Medicine Bow, Salt Lake City (where I graduated high school and attended college) and Lagoon (an amusement park we went to every summer). 

The annoying parts of the day’s drive included cell phone service, witch we lost just outside of Laramie and didn’t get back until just before Park City, Utah.  We lost them again just after Toole, UT and didn’t get them back.  We had to switch over to roaming because apparently Sprint can’t be bothered with lesser populated areas of Wyoming, Utah and Nevada.  The other big change was gas prices.  When we left Ft. Lauderdale, the price was $4.05.  In Alabama, I don’t think we saw anything higher than $3.94, and it rose gradually after that on our westward journey,  culminating at $4.11 in Evanston, WY.  It’s not too bad here in Elko, but we saw one Chevron station this morning charging $4.47, much higher than anything else we’ve seen in the area.

Oh, and it was fun trying to explain The Tree of Utah to Jeffrey.  Frankly, I thought it might be gone by now, but it’s still out there.  It’s fenced off now.  I guess they were having problems with graffiti.  I also remember it being closer to Salt Lake City than the Utah-Nevada border.  So much for my excellent memory.

This is another short and sweet post.  We arrived at mom’s a little before 6:30, PST, safe but exausted.  Mom made us a very nice dinner, we watched a little TV and are calling it a night.  I’ll write more about today’s escapades after I get some sleep.

One more thing to note.   We’re going to spend tomorrow here as well.  We need some recuperative downtime after logging almost 3,000 miles in 4 days.  Sleep well.

Happy Independence Day!!

Greetings from Fort Collins, Colorado.

Sorry for the short post yesterday, but we were both exhausted.  Today was an even longer day, but we’re holding up much better now.  In fact, we’ve made up enough time that we’re going to be back on schedule and arrive at my mother’s place in Elko tomorrow afternoon sometime.

So you may be wondering why I’m writing from Ft. Collins instead of Denver?  Denver, where I was born but haven’t been back to since I was three months old?  Denver, where, according to mom, I lived in the house next door to where the “Unsinkable Molly Brown” used to live?  Denver, where I have cousins I haven’t seen or heard from since my grandfather’s funeral back in the late 90s?

Easy.  Jeffrey’s mother remembered that his aunt and cousin are living in Ft. Collins now, and said cousin invited us to stay the night.  Aunt is Jeffrey’s father’s sister, and the families were very close when Jeffrey was growing up.  They’ve been spending the evening catching up and reminiscing.  We got to see a nice fireworks show from their backyard, and the dogs did NOT freak out, amazingly enough.  Now we’re unwinding and getting ready to go to bed.

I don’t quite know how we did it.  It must have something to do with higher speed limits, driving faster than those limits (without getting caught), and driving more hours a day than we originally planned for.  Oh, and gaining an hour every time we cross a time zone.  Today’s time zone change surprised me, though, by being thirty-odd miles before the Kansas-Colorado border.  I thought it would be the border itself.

We left Tulsa shortly after 6:30 this morning, CST.  Traffic was very light, needless to say, so there was no rush hour to deal with, no workers to watch out for, and not many cops patrolling yet.  Not a very exciting day drive-wise, but we were able to confirm a few things.  Either Jeffrey’s SUV has undersized tires or mine has oversized.  When my speedometer reads 70 or 75, his reads about 5 mph higher.  Also, I go about 1/2 a tank of gas for his 3/4 or full tank.
