Sep. 21st, 2010 03:54 pmSo the house is on the market. It looks like SWMBO will have dropped a couple of thou on the house: we'll be lucky to get 495K. All the houses we're looking at cost about 700K (+/- 50k).
According to the Estate Agents we have about 6 weeks window before the market shuts down for Christmas.
Tomorrow Madame has taken a day off and her parents are coming down from St Neot's, then we're looking at 8 houses in the area between Dulwich and Camberwell. Bliss. My cup doth overflow.
On another note, in the past I have been able to force myself to do things I would not normally consider: like climb mountains, have sex with the wrong people, try out strange and dangerous drugs, etc....So how come, fourteen months off fifty, I can't make myself practice my guitar? I look at it, take it off its stand, read about guitar, advise other people on the instrument, think about it....but when it comes to doing practice it is just beyond my powers of concentration or application.
I wonder, has the time come to put down the instrument, if not for good, then at least for an appreciable period?
