A friend who was formerly in the real estate market came over last night to assess what needs to be done to our place before we sell:
- New carpet in both bedrooms
- Paint my room
- Stain my bathroom cabinets
- Make my bathroom “girly” (his words, not mine)
- Finish various paint jobs around the house
- Clean out the garage
Now the rub is that I’m gone/occupied for the next three weekends, and immediately after that Roommate and Fiance are gone for three weeks. We’re not going to have much time to do this before then. So we won’t be on the market before November. The thought of staying here through the holidays and beyond strains my sanity. Furthermore, if Roommate and Fiance are really shooting for preggers next month, and we’re going to be in this place for a while, we need to have another talk. Starting a family and all that is great if it’s time for you to do that, but I really don’t want to live with the drama that is a Hormonal Pregnant Woman. However, I don’t have the socially acceptable high ground here. Society would frown on my attempting to deny a couple the right to procreate just because I don’t want to live with that. But considering neither of us can leave this place at will, we should probably hash this out, ‘cause, you know, that was never part of the deal.
If I were of the histrionic persuasion, I’d be tearing my hair out about now.
