RE: Black Thumb Chronicles : Gnome Crazy
Even cool ninja gnomes will not make me a gnome person XD I'm not actually even much of a garden person but if we ever get this other house (which is looking a bit shaky atm :S) I have plans for how to make the front yard look nice once we throw the aquaponics and stuff at it (the aquaponic frames do the job beautifully but are not the prettiest).
So I'm anticipating more pics of the gnomes you add to your collection and getting presents for you is going to be easy now? XD
Ry!!! Whats the go with the house?!!!
It's Mercury Retrograde again now.. Remember how I'm like don't sign contracts during the retrograde which I did anyway and paid for it - remember all the delays and last minute shit I had to deal with? That's what happens when you sign over the retrograde period...
So perhaps its best things have slowed down a bit? It's on between March 23 to April 15.
back to gnomes.. really?? not even the solar one? all those eyes in the dark... :D
The aquaponics idea at the front yard sounds lovely. Im still wanting one but I cringe at the maintenance upkeep and all that. :(
I don't know when these things are DX
So basically what happened was the house we were looking at reduced in price (yay!) so we kicked into high gear (we'd been kind of slowly muddling through the process) and got a pre-approval and then...estimated sale prices and valuations for our house came in a lot lower than expected (we're zoned R60 but there's not many other R60 blocks for sale in the area so my friend who is a REA and my brother in law who is a valuer priced it in the range of the surrounding R30/40 houses) so we may not be able to afford it after all. We're waiting on Keystart to tell us what the valuers they sent around have to say and then we'll see how we go I guess.
And no. Not even the solar ones. Because as amusing as little glowing eyes in the night would be it will probably give some of the kids that would be visiting and having sleepovers nightmares forever XD
Yikes!!!! Sucks about your house Ry. I hope the Keystart people has good news for you, but at least you guys are steps closer now than you were months ago!!
Just cross fingers it all works out and in perfect timing.
LOLOL could imagine kiddies running in terror from the garden...
There's goes the midnight easter egg hunt idea... ;)
Well if we moved to the new place there's a pool house that they would be having sleepovers in which is relatively self-contained (it has a bathroom with a toilet and you stick a fridge in there with drinks and snacks and they'll be set for a night) and if they're telling each other ghost stories and suddenly those bloody eyes come on at night, it would be pretty funny for me but maybe not so much for them XD
I'm just going with the flow. If it's ours we'll get it, if not then we won't which will be fine even though I'll be annoyed about the time spent in the effort XD
