I can't even with my BIL and SIL. She is out of town and BIL just decided to leave my niece at the family business today. They do not need to leave a mobile 1 year old in a HVAC shop. So now H gets to spend the day babysitting. BIL also just had her in a short sleeve onsie and pants. There is 3" of snow outside and their building is usually around 60 degrees inside in the winter.
Their daycare is open. They just refuse to get a backup and pay for someone to watch her.

I've looked at 4 house and I'm done. LOL! I could totally move into the 2 bedroom we found. It is move-in ready and the HOA's include use of the pool and park. It is overprice according to Zillow. Does anyone know how accurate Zillow's estimates are?

I think it really depends on the area. When we were selling our house in MA, Zillow was pretty spot on. If anything the estimates were on the low side just because it was totally a seller's market. A lot of properties got multiple offers which drove prices up.

In our area, Zillow is a good rough estimate but not accurate. We paid about $15,000 more for our house than the Zillow estimate and I still feel we got a great deal on our house. Zillow's estimate was just very low.
I need to go outside and get more firewood. I was going to make DH do it but he just informed me he also has a cold ... so man cold means he will be of no use to the house for the next several days! Effing man colds
There was a segment on the Today show or GMA yesterday about how man colds "actually are worse"...H was loving it. I was eye rolling.

I know! They did this in the summer when she was sent home sick from daycare. Almost everyone in the family/at their work ended up with pink eye.
Ew. No. Someone needs to have a come to Jesus talk with them! Not cool.
Yep. Their newest "plan" is to have her go to preschool early 3 days a week and have H watch her at work the days that SIL has to work so they can save money. Uhhhhh no. You should have thought about the cost before you bought a brand new truck and remodeled your house right before having kids.

I would look at the $/square foot ratio compared to similar houses. Our $/sqft is really low compared to neighbors and it makes us feel better.

Wow. How does YH feel about that? That seems super presumptuous of them ...

If your kid is sick you go home from work and take care of them. Not fucking expose people to their germs.
This makes me irrationally irritated.
Your kid, your problem. If you ask permission for someone to watch them, fine. But you can't just drop your kid off at your family's work and expect them to take care of her, especially when that means people need to actually stop working.

Have your realtor do a market analysis on the price per square foot of comparable houses sold in the last 6 months. That should give you a good idea of a "fair" price. (I have a Realtor in the family)

That whole situation is wrong rooskie. I can't believe they are so irresponsible about taking care of their kid. I agree with TheEleventhHour. Someone needs to have a talk with them.

He loves getting to see her, but he gets nothing accomplished when she is there. He is the only one who is in the office so if he isn't working, nothing gets paid, nothing gets ordered, no bills, no payroll...
They think they can leave a 1 year old with a coloring book all day. WTAF. They just drop her and it's not like he can do anything about it because there is no one else there and he's too nice. They usually just laugh about it. But there are many parenting things they do that I do not agree with.
Last time when she was sick I even pulled strings to line up everything so I could take her to our house because I felt so bad.

Yeah... YH needs to put his foot down.
Once in a while? OK. Kind of.
3 days a week- NOT OK. He would get so behind on work!

This 2 bed 1 bath is $67,900. It's right in our price range. The other houses like it in the same area have sold for under $50,000 (at least that is what Zillow tells me). We would love 3 bedrooms, but can go with just 2 for now. H was not a fan of the location so we are still looking. It's the only house on our list right now.
When we first started dating I took MH to get a pedicure, now he loves them and wants to go more than me. It is so expensive though, easily $50 here. I justify that that with the free booze though.

Yeah, that is a huge problem. Who owns the business? Their parents? If BIL dropping her off is affecting YH's ability to put in orders, payroll, etc then it is really going to hurt their business if their new plan involves dropping her off multiple afternoons a week. I hope someone can step up and call them out!
Worked a 16 hour shift yesterday. I am absolutely wiped today. Which of course means DS screams nonstop from the second he woke up until I forced him into a nap half hour ago.
Stupid canines coming in. Top 2 are poking through and bottoms are right under the gums. Can I drink yet?

Can I "what would you do" you guys?
I had some postnasal drip all last week. I chalked it up to allergies from traveling back and forth from the west to east coast. It went away but I then got pain at the base of my tongue. Almost like the muscle is sore. That spread down into my neck over the weekend. All the tissue around my throat hurts but I don't have a sore throat.
Drs appt? Wait it out? Any suggestions to get it to feel better?
