It's really frustrating that I spend enormous amounts of energy trying to keep work life and personal life separate to have my work life not respect that arrangement. So, I can't buy the cat pee house due to work saying no no an hour is too far; however, if it was only 45 minutes away that would be fine. This is unfortunate, but has helped me discover my purpose in life of being a catalyst for change. I feel like I'm always in this position. My main problem is that this wasn't told to anyone at work and I had to find out from my buyer's agent since she heard it as a rumor from somewhere. That's what I'm actually upset about. So, I have requested and made a fuss that policy changes be handled differently and it looks like it might happen. In the meantime I have about a week and a half to find a house to buy.

well hopefully this new house will have a better name. i mean cat pee house really doesn't suit you...doesn't really express the lindsay that we know and love. so good luck house hunting and hope it has a name that becomes you and eric! i am proud of you...you did do the right thing asking about this silent but deadly policy and you are quite the trend setter!! but it does need to be "written" down somewhere for employees to read about!! can't believe you heaard this thru your agent!!!

it's an inheritance of ours from dad...remember the ketchup incident at his school that he had to stand up for! You'll find a great house and look back at the ordeal and think, wow, God knew what he was doing!

So, I decided to house hunt a little in Madison for you b/c I love to look at houses and ran across some you should check out. I ran across the website www.fsbomadison.com which have for sale by owner houses, which are awesome and your realtor can still work w/ them and make it easier. Here are some of the ones I liked.....given that I have no idea what side of Madison is what....:)
