In one word, how do you feel right now?

Post Reply New Topic

I feel so many different ways. I feel eager and excited to begin work on a nonfiction book about a real haunted house.

I feel annoyed because as I am trying to relax here on WP my wife is snoring loudly, and the TV is on loud because if I turn it off she will wake up and I will be annoying her by typing.

I feel angry because the job I loved at school was taken away from me last year (that I invested $7000 in to teach) and now my new job at school causes me great anxiety.

I am tired of this boring winter in southern Ohio---boring boring boring. Can we at least have a big snow???

I feel frustrated by my new computer because I can't get used to the offset keyboard---it has number pad on the side.

I feel sad because I found an inexpensive historic house (about the oldest in the city near me built in 1822) and I would love to own it, but my wife wants no part of it. Am I the only one that loves historic things? And now I don't think I care if I owned it or not---I feel sorry for the old house.

This house has such a history. It was originally used as a hotel for the old canal that ran past it to the Ohio River. The house is registered as an historic landmark. I wish I could buy it. The payments are affordable to me, but I have no support here to do it.

I think I am needing something to happen in my life to make it alive again (my job is wearing me out). I need to get my book written. But I will probably run into stumbling blocks with it. A true account of a haunted house??? Yes---a haunted house. But I am going to push myself to write it. No one will stop me.

Sorry---just realized it was the one word thread. But I don't want to erase what I wrote.

One word?

Frustrated

What is "inexpensive" I'm often some what dumfounded by what you can by over on the cheap say $100,000 or so here you'd by a toilet 1.5 hours from a major city (if your lucky)

Things can't be that bad over their can they?

My location (Arizona). Three bedroom, two bath. 2000 sq ft. In good condition - 50k-80k dollars in the center of Phoenix. In poor condition probably as low as 25k.
5 bedroom, 2 bath homes 2000+ sq ft out of the city for the same price. East of us in Tucson housing is cheaper, and rent is cheaper....
I puchased a home for 50k. Its down to 32k (and I probably can't sell it for that). Appraised value is something like 21k which simply means my taxes dropped way low... $350 mortgage, $40 every 3 weeks for electricity. I couldn't imagine all you people paying 100k for a small place.
I'm considering buying a second property and renting out my current home (condo), to offset the cost of my bills.

Ah, and one word.

"Awake".
