tomorrow i will be summoned to complete my part in buying a house. the man who is selling the house i am buying is in london, and i signed the contract about 1 week ago, and it was then flown to england (only originals are valid, and not faxes or scanned images). i was terrified because the house remained on the market before his signature was inscribed on that document, and i worried that someone else may make a much better offer than mine in the mean time.

the real estate agent assured me that the document would be in sydney tomorrow (monday), and that all i had to do was sign one part of it which completes the deal.

once that happens, the vendor can not change his mind.

i had 2 houses before that were taken away from me. one because of my sister and the other because of the council.

my house in pymble was deemed not mine because i could not prove that i paid for it (my sister was very thorough in getting that house to be deemed part of my fathers estate). my parents went guarantor for me when i bought it, and i had a good job, and i gave my mother the money every month to pay for it, and i eventually owned it, but i had no official documentation because my parents did not know my sister was such a ruthless b***h before they died, and i did not demand any legal paperwork from them because i trusted my parents.
i had to leave there because my nephew was a psychopath who broke in all the time and woke me up with a knife to my throat demanding i give him money.

so i bought another house (i still was being paid very well all the while), and the local council eventually reclaimed it because they said they needed it for road passage, and i had no say and they paid me pittance for it. i then found a place to rent (here) and i have been looking for another permanent house ever since, and i have found a house that i know will never be resumed by any council, and i am happy that i will be moving there in 35 days.

my sister made sure i got nothing from my fathers estate which included the house i bought at pymble.

i was adopted, and there were other reasons (like i was a disappointment because i was psychologically inadequate) which i may challenge when i have the money to do so.

whatever. i am so glad i will never have to pay rent again.

Sister finally left after visiting for a week. Now peace, quiet and purple nails.

Today was a good Saturday!

you put fur in trees for birds? thats an odd thing to do but really nice.


It's next making season! They line the nests with fur to keep their eggs and hatchlings warm. It's better than throwing it out, if some little animal can use it for their young.

What a wonderful thing to do. I'm going to do that too from now on when I brush my kitties. Their fur is very warm just holding it in your hand. Birds could definitely benefit in the cold weather.

Someone asked about what a page filled with numbers, t's, c's, a's, and g's was, with predictable consequences from my annoying tendency to continue explaining more and more and more and more of what interested me.

Surprisingly, I found that I could tell that the listeners (or victims, perhaps?) became bored based on the current draft of the Social Theory concerning facies, but not before they backed away with their words (in hindsight, also implying that it was too much). Perhaps, the only potential downside for me is that one of the listeners is interested in psychology and seems to have read most if not all of the DSM, judging from comments about characters in movies and what condition they may have portrayed.

It is ACTUALLY SUNNY here today. That never happens, especially not during the winter.
