I'm discouraged because I didn't get the house finished yet. Saturday is the Easter Egg hunt in the park across the street and there will be so many families and I won't have the sign up. So frustrated. There are just not enough hours in the day to do what needs to be done. I'm not physically able to do what I used to be able to do and that is making me crazy too.

Don't need hugs, just need to cry somewhere.

I can see why you feel discouraged, Laura.

Both boys have been unhelpful. #1 isn't even here and he would likely come if I asked, but then he would fight with his father. #2 finds one excuse after another and is little help. Grrrr. I tried to get DH to let me help scrape shutters, one of the last things on the list, but he won't let me because it is too hot and it is physically very hard to do. So I do work work instead and feel like a bum.

Laura, perhaps put the signs up anyway> Things maybe do not need to be perfect before the signs are up, especially if there will be a large audience for them.

msbelle isn't wrong. And I am sorry you feel discouraged, Laura. Want me to come kick both boys in the butt?

Yeah, I have to push the real estate person now. 3 day lead time on getting the sign post! They put it up Monday. Just give me the damn post and I will put it in.

I figure she can handle the calls and just tell them that the contractors are finishing and schedule appointments or take names for later. I just want the sign up.

Laura, I'm sorry. Getting a house ready for sale must be a giant pain in the ass.

I got up early today to have my hand controls serviced because they were being kind of wonky. Picked up pastries because I was supposed to hang out with the lovely vw, and as I was pulling into the gas station near my house. The hand controls disconnected completely. I'm livid, mostly because no vw and I feel like such a flake and an awful friend for blowing her off at the last minute. But there is nothing I can do other than have my car towed home and have TCG drive it back tomorrow.

Yeah, I can have the sign, but the post won't be installed until Monday. My fault because I knew the timeline, but still want to weep. DH is all 'we're not ready', but I just need this behind me. Hopefully the painting gets done this weekend. I am in the camp of putting up the sign and just tell people that call that it is being completed and will be available to be viewed on whatever date. Ugh.

I should be doing stuff instead of being on line!

Oh, sj! How frustrating. Obviously vw will understand, but I understand why you are livid.

Realtors down here put up signs in yards with a add on that says "Coming Soon"
