Yay Perkins! I'm late to the party, but I want to add that I also bought the first house I toured. It CAN happen!
Even if you don't get this one, you'll be a step closer to knowing what it is you're looking for, which will help winnow the choices you'll face.
If power for well water is a worry, get a generator. You're in earthquake territory, so it's a sooner-or-later proposition, and will be a source of worry avoidance even if you never fire it up in earnest.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thanks all!
I do hope this works out, though I decided last night I'm not going to be crushed if it doesn't. Of course, I am also mapping my current furniture into the new floor plan already.
Houses like carrots!

A giant vat (get on of those disposbale aluminum trays if you don't have a large casserole) of homemade mac and cheese.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Go, Perkins!
AMy, for bulk feeding, I immediately think of chili or lasagna.

Thrive to spite them
I need some advice. I have a neighbor who will be moving out soon. She has 2 kittens (3 and 5 months I think).
They have no food or water over there (I can peek in the window) they are meowing and scratching at the door. I let them in myplace yesterday when the landlady was showing the apartment.
According to her the neighbor called b/c she lost her key and needed to get up with the Landlady for a replacement. That was Saturday afternoon and the landlady hasn't heard from her.
I know she didn't come home last night. So the kittens have been alone from Saturday afternoon until today.
When my landlady comes home I want to tell her the situation, ask if I can get into the apartment and get the kittens and feed them.
Would it be wrong if, when my neighbor shows up, I tell her I can't give the kittens back to her because of her neglect?
