Talked with the wife who's in conference with our agent, and we'd both forgot that the sellers are including a 1-year Home Warranty that will cover not only many of the small problems the house has that we were going to pay for and I was going to do the labor on, but it also covers the furnace if it fails.
If it does go kaputski, the warranty will cover the parts labor to fix it, or the entire replacement of the furnace if it's not repairable.
:-)
And the warranty can be extended indefinitely for $445 a year after the first year of coverage.
Huge relief!!
So she's signed the paperwork, and has already contacted our investment broker and told her to liquidate our holdings (will take 3 days to sell it off, and will net us about $42k) for down payments, closing costs, flooring, appliances, etc..
So as of now, we "own" the house (after escrow closes on September 9th)!
Saturday we go to a flooring company I visited a few hours ago so we can choose carpet and/or laminate flooring to be installed, and start packing stuff up here in the apartment.
We'll be moved in on September 16th, 2 days before I start back on chemo, and 8 days before my b-day.
:-)
Will be contacting my buddy to see about acquiring some more herb, 'cause it's going to be a doozy of a time for the next month.
But will be resting in our home soon enough.
:-)
that is so good doobie,and very happy the inspection man did his job,...I remember not long ago my heat exchanger went out,month after yr home Warranty.
house warming gift...

That sucks about the furnace, gen!
Always seems to happen that way, too.
There's got to be some kinda hex attached to warranties, I swear.
Well, we're going to run the heck out of the furnace this winter, even if we have to open up windows around the house to keep it running.
If we're lucky, it'll break before spring time so we can get it replaced and have the A/C unit installed at the same time to get a $1200 discount for doing both at the same time.
And if not, we'll extend the warranty and keep running the furnace until it does die.
;-)

Thanks Doob, I was just excited to post some damn pr0n finally! It seems when you take a break from growing that very first harvest when you start back up seems to take forever!!!

Peace

Seriously though... i Know what you mean. Seems like it takes 6 months.

Check this out... they found a new mammal species.

http://www.aljazeera.com/video/americas/2013/08/201381603148176643.html

[h=1]US scientists discover new mammal species[/h]
[h=2]Raccoon-like olinguito was discovered living in the threatened cloud forests of South America.[/h]
The long-tailed, orange-furred, big-eyed olinguito - said to resemble a cross between a house cat and a teddy bear - is the newest mammal and the first carnivore to be discovered in the Americas in 35 years.


Native to the high, misty cloud forests of Colombia and Ecuador, the olinguito is the smallest member of the raccoon family, according to Kristofer Helgen, a Smithsonian scientist who recognised it as a distinct species 10 years ago.

The "aha" moment occurred not in a South American forest but at Chicago's Field Museum, the creature's discoverer, Helgen said at a news briefing on Thursday.

"I pulled out a drawer ... and said 'Wow,'" Helgen recalled of his first view of a long-dead 20th century specimen, which had been identified as a related species, the olingo. "It was like nothing I'd ever seen before."

Helgen said the teeth and skull of the specimen were much different from those of an olingo, which is larger and has more prominent ears than the olinguito.

He said he could have published this finding in a scientific journal then, but in the interest of being thorough, he sought out colleagues to confirm the existence of the new species in its natural habitat.

Carnivores

Olinguitos are considered carnivores, even though they eat mostly fruit, Helgen said. These creatures have teeth that look fully capable of eating meat, he added.

They have thick, woolly fur that is brighter than that of the more drab-colored Olingos. Olinguitos are about .76 metres long and weigh about 900 grams.

Males and females are about the same size, and females raise a single baby at a time, the scientists said.

Olinguitos are hard to spot in the cloud forests of the northern Andes, which are thickly wooded and often shrouded in fog or mist with elevations of 1,524 to 2,743 metres above sea level.

Largely nocturnal, they spend most of their time in the forest canopy and are adept at jumping from tree to tree.

Helgen and his team closely observed the animal's habits and environment.

Andean cloud forests are considered unique ecosystems because of the variety of species they support, but they are being deforested to make way for agriculture, urbanisation and the illegal drug trade.

One of the hardest addictions we can fight, them cigs.
We're pulling for ya, and if you did it once, you can do it again.

Toking more of the herb sure helped me when I quit tobacco, too.

Well, it'll be nice to watch your new grow space fill up knowing that relief is on the way.
:-)

(and I'm digging you guys' vertical stuff)

Dang.
50-sq ft.
I'm going to be weighing all my options after we move into the house and I'm building my grow rooms.
I can only grow 6 flowering plants at a time, so might be going vertical after my current grow is finished, as it'll be too late to train them properly by the time we're settled in and I'm ready to build.
Thankfully I'll have you & whodat & jig & DST to steal good ideas from when the time comes.
;-)


*edit: I'm bushed, so gonna get some grub in me and rack the sack. Ya'll have a good night out there!

Morning from a brain frazzled DST......will be gald when this week is OVER!:)

Jig, I watched something on TV about the new discovery. From what I remember they actually found it in some museum somewhere and the discovery was based on it being labeled incorrectly!!!! that really made me smile, perhaps the scientist was a distant relative of Don Gin and T who is forever labelling things incorrectly:)

Hey, hey, hey!
The Doob here, or His Doobness, or, uh, El Dooberino (if you're not into the whole brevity thing), from Club 600 over on rollitup.org, man.
Just a quick vid of my little herb garden.
I've got six Black Dynamite girls going on, a Platinum Bubba x OG Kush, a few Casey Jones girls, and a re-veg of a tasty Extrema girl (the funky looking chick you see briefly in my cinematographic meanderings that really tied the room together, man).
Five more days until I flip the photoperiod to 12/12, because, you know, this aggression will not stand, man.
You know?
The groovy tune was done by my band: 600, and is called "We Need Bush".
While I do roll J's on Shabbos, I, like, totally respect other's who choose not to roll on Shabbos, man, 'cause, like, we all have our own trips in life, so, it's cool as a Black Russian, you know?

(*quoted from my new youtube channel that will here to for and hence forth house my cannabis vids)

How boring they didn't discover the thing in the wild. Still amazing there are mammals we don't know about out there.

Life is good my friend. I was simply putting some numbers out there.
Nothing like dragging out my words from 2009. Real funny to think me and Don got off on the wrong foot. We just don't communicate very effectively with each other mate.

DrD81... man you have been busy. That looks like a lot of work. And a job well done.

They reckon that most species that humans will discover now will be in museum archives, how boring....so even science labels things wrong!

oh, and the main reason they can discover them is because of advances in DNA, and being able to extract that from the dead mammals that are stored.....eeeck!
