I Did It!

Yesterday I spoke to my father and told him what I want to do. Told him how I want to loan my husband the money to buy the property and how he would take a bond afterwards and pay me back. Of course my father wants to protect me and so he asked why my husband just doesn’t start off with the bond. Of course when I told my father about how paying cash for this apartment would give a large discount, he brushed off the discount and stressed how if things go wrong I could be left with nothing. In the end I sent my dad the emails about this place and he said he would look it all over and get back to me today.

After talking to him, I ended up feeling a lot lighter. Later today I need to follow up with my dad and get final answers. I stressed how I need answers asap and he said there will always be other developments and properties…I hope he realizes that even though there will be other properties, I am pretty sure the price will be much higher and maybe impossible to meet. Property in Cape Town is no joke.

Anyway so ever since my accident back in 2005, I have never been consistent with taking anti depressants. And whenever I hit rock bottom and put myself back on them, I promise myself that I won’t let myself go off them. But after awhile I do and think I am okay…until I am not anymore. But the last few days I have been taking them every morning as I wake up and I have been feeling like I can manage and handle all the turmoil that life throws at me. But damn am I so exhausted.

So on Monday we received the Smart TV that I ordered for our place. My husband is loving it and last night was so nice getting to fall asleep in his arms, which he watched TV.

Since Sunday my husband has been dishing out love to me. Non-stop kissing and checking up on me and been very attentive. I am generally not big on lovey actions and stuff but it is nice having him be like this. This is how he was when we started, but then alcohol happened and work asked more. He stresses how his #1 is G-d and I come right afterwards.

His family is coming down tomorrow morning for a few days, there is a memorial in the family. Anyway he has been trying to get answers from his family about the logistics for their stay; when they were coming, how long, who all is coming, what they need etc. He kept getting bits and pieces of info and nothing final until yesterday afternoon. He told his sister that we work and there isn’t much we can do, she told us last minute so it is a lil too late for us to change things around.

We were under the impression that they will be staying at us…well some of them, but thankfully my sister-in-law’s baby daddy is putting them up in a hotel. I am very happy to not have them stay at us, but all day yesterday I was wondering how this was all been paid for, when every month his mother and sister go on about needing money from my husband. Anyway…this weekend is about his family.
