Wow, so Bob's place has been on the market for a week and there was already an offer on it. Kind of ridiculously low, but still when it was on the market before (2009/2010) it didn't get a single offer. I hope this is not a fluke!

I'm so glad to hear Scrappy's Mom's news -- needed something good today. Found out that my contract job ends Nov 1st-ish, instead of another 3 month extension due to budgetary cutbacks, et cetera.
It's not like I wanted this for a Forever Job (not that they have those any more) but it would have been nice to avoid the stress of job-searching and the uncertainty thereof for a couple more months right now. So I'm a bit situationally depressed much more than I would otherwise have been, I guess.

Yay for Mom of Scrappy!
lisah, probably not a fluke since mortgage rates are so incredibly low. It's why we're buying a new house and why we expect to have this one sold in less than two weeks.

I'm sorry, Theo. That's a gut-punch. Sending you speedy finding next gig, and may it be awesome in every way you want it to be.

Ah, Theo, I'm sorry. I hope everything pans out well, but how stressful. DO NOT WANT.
Scrappy, I am glad to hear the news about your mom; it seems very positive!
(Not really here, just checking in. Bye!)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yay for your good news, Scrappy!
I'm sorry about your job news though, Theodosia. I wish we could have a Good News Only day once in a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

God, right? Sorry, Theo.
I think the main woman on Call the Midwife kind of looks like my grandmother. I mean, obviously a bunch of it is styling, but I think she really does.

I thought she looked like a young Queen Elizabeth.

Yeah, I can see that.

Great news, Scrappy!
