sad

for the first time since i moved in i am thinking about moving.

i just don't want to deal with them anymore. i love my condo just i just don't want to deal with these stupid intrusions anymore.

plus i don't like how polarized the whole place is.

my home is supposed to be emotionally clutter free and this is making it not!

However, I bet I won't move, since I just decided to take advantage of ikea's sale this weekend and buy more kitchen cupboards.

OH DUDE i forgot about the tax sale. does that end today?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2005-04-15 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
lol

no, it starts today and goes through sunday. with my mom's discount we will get 21.5% off! yay!

this weekend i want to do a lot of work on my condo. i am going to get a new backsplash and redo the kitchen cupboards and paint my livingroom wall. i am sick of that not being done.

i need a handy boy, serinia is not a good helper.

we are going tomorrow about 5ish cause that is when my mom gets off.

she is getting my dad a discount card, so soon we won't have to wait for her.

i wish someone would come to the meeting with me, sigh.

That's the best thing to do though, if you're wanting to move, do some superficial upgrades to make the place look better. Putting $5000 into cosmetic improvements can result in up to a $15000 increase on the sale of your unit.

LOL

you mean i would have to put some woodwork up? :P

i am pretty sure that when i do finally sell this place i will be getting a little over 5 times what i bought it for. at this point there is nothing that i haven't completly redone.

Nice!

I'd be looking for a new place though, seriously... it sounds like an extremely hostile environment.

i wish i could just move my unit. i love it, i have made it to be exactly what i want and when i close my door nothing comes in.

it isn't always so bad, i just was shocked that i was avoiding going home. sigh. i worry about my cats there. it is stupid.

anyways, if i was to move, i would buy a house. with a yard and more rooms.

Ooooh! Put in a backyard pond, and enclose the yard so the cats can go out and watch the fishies!!!

you haven't seen my plans for my kitty condo in my condo, have you?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2005-04-15 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
i have to scan them in. that is this summer's project.

ok, i am getting a lawyer to look at the bylaws, that will help me feel a lot better. i should have done that many years ago.

[identity profile] sharya.livejournal.com 2005-04-15 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Good! I hope you'll hear some good news :)

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2005-04-15 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
who knows what it will say but i will like to know what certian things actually mean. sigh.

[identity profile] sharya.livejournal.com 2005-04-19 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude. I'm having Condo problems now.

How much did it cost for your lawyer to look at your bylaws and offer advice?

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2005-04-19 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
well, i didn't actually find someone but the going price seems to be 300 dollars an hour.


however, i found a lot of stuff on the internet about canada's laws before the US ones. what is the issue for you>?

just move to florida. its awesomeness!

[identity profile] bertine.livejournal.com 2005-04-18 02:43 pm (UTC)(link)
moving florida is a little over the top for a solution for this problem.

plus i would die, i can't handle the humidity for long.

Hi,

I sent you an email, but it would be good if you could call me at work, so that you can talk to one of the attorneys. He said he would like to talk to you further. 612-339-1601, ask for Tiffany, although I am sure I will answer the phone.

Tiffany

Awesome, it'll be a couple hours but I will when I get away from my desk.

You rock.
