Stop the world, I want to get off...

Do you ever have times like this?

I'm tired of trying to find the right people to call to do the job that needs to be done.  The Internet is wonderful... as long as you don't really, really, need something important... RIGHT NOW!

Then when you do find the someone to do that specific job... they either don't do that job in that part of the state (?) or they just don't return calls.

This would be a whole lot easier if I handled conflict better... I'm not one to rock the boat or be nasty... I'm way too patient and understanding.  And when things aren't going my way - I'd just as well go take a nap... except my room here isn't dark enough really to give you that 'I'm hiding in a cave' feeling.

Buying this house... is getting to be a pain.  Trying to schedule all the various inspections that need to be done... and those bring up other questions that lead to other inspections.  I'm sure it will all be worth it in the end... but boy oh boy am I gonna be ticked off if this place doesn't pass the various inspections or the sellers don't give some concession for the work that needs to be done.

Yes - Thank you for pulling over... I'd like to get off right over there...
