8-25-2009 Worry

There seems to be a lot of bad stuff going on in the lives of my friends lately.

So today, my worries revolve around them.

I worry:

• That they will handle bad things as terribly as I do.
• That they won't know how wonderful they.
• That they won't know how valuable they are.
• That they will feel guilty over things that they have no control.
• That they will bottle their emotions and it will affect their health.
• About how the lives of their children will be effected.
• That their children won't know how wonderful they are.
• That their children won't know how valuable they are.
• That their children will feel guilty over things that they have no control.
• That the bad guys in each situation won't get what's coming to them.

We are meeting today to accept the seller's offer on the smaller but better neighborhood house.

I am excited but I did lose the 'discussion' over which house to purchase so I am strangely disappointed as well.

We have a very busy 2 months ahead of us. Throw in a house purchase and move and things are going to be CRAZY!!

I am worried about:

• See 8-21-2009 Worry
• Packing
• Moving
• Unpacking
• Wallpaper removal
• Painting

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. No worries today!

Should I be worried that I have no worries?

And why do I constantly mis-type worry as woory?

I am going for a long bike ride today. I'm aiming for 30 miles.

So I worry about:

• Having a flat tire.
• Having a flat tire in the middle of nowhere.
• Having a flat tire in the middle of nowhere and not having any cell reception.
• Having a flat tire in teh middle of nowhere and not having any cell reception and notice a really angry dog coming toward me.
• Getting chased by a dog.
• Getting chased by a dog while pedaling uphill.
• Getting chased by a dog while pedaling uphill and it causes me to wreck.
• Getting chased by a dog while pedaling uphill and it causes me to wreck in front of a car.
• Not being able to go as far as I want.
• Not being able to go as fast as I want.

We are still house shopping. It has finally boiled down to this - for about the same price, we can have space or location. I'm leaning toward space. Vol Fan is leaning toward location.

Either place will be fine. We don't plan on staying in this house forever. We will be building our home on property we own just outside of town. Why we are not building now is a whole other worry.

But since we are not ready to build and we will be first time home buyers, an $8000 tax credit is pretty hard to pass up.

So I'm worried about:

• If I convince Vol Fan to see things my way and we buy the larger house, I will feel responsible (and guilty) if the housing market continues on its downward slide and we can't recoup our money.
• If Vol Fan convinces me to see things his way and we buy for the better location, I will hold him responsible if the housing market continues on its downward slide and we can't recoup our money.
• If I convince Vol Fan to see things my way and we buy the larger house, I will hate it and wish for the better location.
• Interest rates.
• Mortgage payments.
• That either house might be a money pit.
• That my house will burn down.
• That my house will get swept up in a tornado or flood.
• Termites.
• Roof leaks.
• That I really have no eye for color.
• Or decor.
• That my landscape efforts will look like crap.
• That my carpet will get stained.
