Very Bummed
Family, Food, Fun, Life, Love, SchoolI just got shitty news. I was looking through our real estate database at work.. and my grandma and grandpa’s house finally sold. I’m so devestated about it. For those of you who don’t know the story.. my grandparent’s passed away last year 1 week apart from each other. And my family has been in turmoil ever since. They were the only reason my family included me in anything.. so after they passed away there was no longer a need to have Chelsey around. It’s pretty fucking sad that I have to find out about the house getting sold AT MY WORK and not from my family. Shit they didn’t even call me and tell me when my grandpa’s funeral was going to be.. I had to find out by reading the paper. Nice huh?
I can’t randomly drive up to the house anymore, crawl over the gate and cry on the porch. It used to be my favorite place in the whole wide world.. I’ve written school papers about my love for that house. There used to be so much love inside it. I grew up there, my height marks are etched on the hallway walls. I had weekend sleepovers there up until I was 18 years old. And it never changed. Whenever I needed to get away from life, I called grandma and grandpa and told them I’d be over in 20 minutes. My grandma and I would stay up until 5AM playing board games and eating junk food. God I miss those days. The best memorys of my life took place in that house, and I will forever cherish them. Hopefully the family who purchased it will cherish it just the same.

i can just imagine how u feel chels. if my grandma were to sell the house i would simply feel like life sucked a big one. it was hard learning that my gramma was getting married but shit selling the house woulda been a million times worse!
I understand your situation.
My grandparents died a couple months apart, and we had to sell the house. I used to love going there and staying overnight, so that my parents could do their fighting in private.
I hope everything works out.
I’m sorry to hear that the house sold, but I guess it was inevitable, right? Perhaps this is a chance to find another place to work. I’m not saying that what you had wasn’t sufficient; sometimes we just need a change whether it’s for better or worse.
I dunno what I’m talking about. I ramble a lot. But at least you got to spend time with your grandparents. A lot of children now don’t have a good relationship with their grandparents and you do.
Okay, more babbling.
Anyway, try to cheer up. ^_^
:[ That’s awful that you had to find all of this out from your work, rather than your own family. That’s a beautiful house and we can only hope that they treat it with the best care and love it just as much as you did / do.
aww swets, that is horrible to find out like that.
awww chels, im sorry to hear that.. :sad: the house looks really lovely tho.. its really nice.. i do hope the new owners take good care of it now aswell.. take good care chels.. *hugz*
