I'm ready to head back to bed but have to s2s first. Then I will consider it. The apartment is very quiet now.
Last night, dgs cried for quite a while but was asleep by 9:15. He was still in the tub at 8, had to take meds, brush teeth, etc, then 7 books, then the tears. Dd had said to ask him when mommy was coming and he said "one day" but then he cried more and said "M wants mommy!" This is his very first night without his mommy ever.
He didn't want me to lie with him so I got ready for bed and he cried more when I'd leave the room so I guessed he wanted me near to hear his anguish. I pulled out my tablet and put on a Youtube of ducklings which he refused to look at so he scooted off my bed, onto his mattress and settled down a bit listening to the peeping ducklings between sobs and fell asleep. Someone got 15 views of their video last night because I kept replaying it until I was sure he was asleep!
By the time I was willing to say he wasn't going to wake up again, it was 9:25 so I went to bed myself. He'd stir every hour or so and let out a whimper and I'd say shhhh and touch his back. I crept out of bed at 3:30 to pee and he slept without whimpering from then until 7.
I peeked when I heard him then and he was sitting up so I said "good morning!" He held up his arms and said "give Nana hug" so he climbed in with me for a short cuddle until he was awake enough to go potty and start the day.
We played for a bit, he suggested the kitchen so we had breakfast and his mommy came after breakfast just as she promised. They are off to meet a friend's new puppy so he should have a good day.
Ds called while I made dd a second breakfast. He will not be buying the house. The building inspector told him to not buy the house under any circumstances only 45 minutes into the process. He canceled the septic inspection for ds and only charged ds 1/3 the normal rate since he was there less than an hour.
The block foundation is failing and will cost about 40K to fix. Even if that was done, there are water table issues (too high) and the well is too close to the septic. No wonder there is no well record. Given how high the water table is, they suspect it was a hand dug well from decades ago. As well, the high water table will likely mean problems with the septic so basically he was looking at 1) raising the house and building a new foundation, laying weeping tiles and installing a sump pump, 2) drilling a new well and 3) putting in a new, raised, septic system. Plus whatever the inspector found once going into the house.
Poor ds feels ill now he is so disappointed. At least ds's real estate agent was there with him. I can't say enough good about that guy.
