Invaded….
So Saturday I went with N up to town so I could go to the apartment and continue cleaning/packing. Truthfully, I got about nothing done lol. Anyway, he got off work and we went to this little festival thing they had…stayed for a few minutes then left and went to Buffalo Wild Wings. Had some wings, some soft pretzels and many beers. Played some trivia and I got toasted…lots of beers. We got back to the apartment and I passed out…..slept on the love seat half the night lol.
So Sunday I got up. Felt fine except I had a killer headache and no aspirin in the house. N had taken the car to work so there was no way for me to get some. I made it until he came to pick me up for lunch/dinner. We had some food, stopped back at the store for him to finish up work then I drove home.
I feel so bad for him. His boss is working his little tail off. It isn’t hard work and it isn’t long days…..but it is when you add a minimum 1 1/2 hour drive each way. Driving wears a person out. The good thing is he has today and tomorrow and then finally gets a day off. She originally had him scheduled for every day this week also but we had to tell her to give him a day off lol.
They just got a new contract and had hired some of the people from the former company that had it. Apparently, those people are quitting because it is too hard…too much work. Yeah, that is why the other company lost the contract…because the people were useless lol.
Oh almost forgot….so we got home last night…put some stuff up….and didn’t do a whole lot. N was exhausted so he passed out. So he woke up in the middle of the night cause the dogs were going crazy…he went to check on what was up. He didn’t find anything and came back in….when he came back in he realized the bunk beds were gone.
His sister and brother-in-law that had lived with his parents and totally screwed them over, had one piece of furniture still in the basement – a set of bunk beds. Somehow…we had totally not noticed they weren’t there anymore when we got home lol. Anyway, so we realized the brother-in-law had been in the house….and probably gone through our stuff. He is crazy. Well we had noticed when we got home, the fountain tube had gotten knocked out of the fountain again and the pump had drained the pond. We thought the cats had done it….but after noticing the bed was gone, we think he probably did it. He is like that. It freaked us out a bit…N’s mom had said they had been locking the slide lock on the basement door then going out the upstairs door. We were lazy and went out the basement door…apparently the brother-in-law has a key to the door knob lock. So now they have no reason to be in the house. I think I am going to get a new door lock for the basement door….it makes me feel uneasy…like the one day we are both gone is when they decide to do it.
Then, we are living out on this farm where it is gorgeous and somewhat isolated. The problem is there is this old neighbor that used to help out N’s parents a lot. He is a nice guy….he likes to help. The problem is, he drives up here all the time…and is calling N’s mom and telling her we are never home. He doesn’t seem to get the concept that N WORKS a job in the city….he is NOT a farmer who is here all the time. AND he doesn’t get that I am in the house. I know N’s mom was outside working on the farm a lot but I am not her. I work from home..so I am inside on the computer. It just kinda defeats the purpose of living on the farm sometimes lol.
I am sure it will be better once it sinks in that we are here and we take care of the farm. N’s mom didn’t tell him that they were leaving. He thought they were going on like a vacation or something….she didn’t tell him they were actually moving. It put N in a bad place because he had to tell the neighbor…and we think it hurt him that they didn’t tell him. Obviously he still talks to N’s mom all the time….calls and tells her the cows got out or whatever. I mean we appreciate the help but damn…we aren’t teenagers lol.
Anyway…so that is my life. Living on the farm. Going to town tomorrow to hopefully get a puppy….can’t wait 😀
