Hello, this is non fiction, my life falling apart in front of you CHAPTER ONE

I TAKE THE STEP AND MARRY WIFE NUMBER FIVE

13 Nov 11
 
-The ministry was on strike, the workers were sitting at their desks but not doing anything.  Susan said that "It took two weeks to notice that the workers were on strike"
 
-A woman preformed the Ceremony which consisted of the woman saying something to the effect "I give myself to you as your wife" and I say "I accept you as my wife"
 
-My two best men were solicited by Susan in the lobby, "Hey you guys want to make 10kd (35 dollars)?"
 
-We found out there are actually two Ministries of Justice, and that room number 25 didn't exist.
 
-After we were married, we had to go get the documents translated.
 
-The reception was held at "Chillies" restaurant, Kuwaiti Towers.  It was a private affair, the park bench took about five photos, the waitress took the best one.  Our special guest was a blooming onion.
 
-Please do not post any information to facebook yet, Susan was actually sick out of work with a close call of pneumonia.
 
-Susan is wearing a single band and mine is silver in color made of titanium. The honeymoon is to be announced.

Hi Love
 
I entered this competition in your name as I don't have residency.
 
Here is the blurb.  If the call, don't mention any other properties!!!
 
 

Hello there!
 
I met my South African wife, Susan, during my 5 years working in Kuwait.  I was training military contractors out in the desert, and she was teaching at the Australian University in Kuwait City.  We married 8 months ago.  Our work contracts in Kuwait ended recently, and we purchased the best little home we could afford in Columbus, Georgia, near to my elderly mother.  Ours is an older home, but we love the spectacular views of Weem's Road Lake which is home to colorful Koi fish, turtles, and wild ducks. 
 
Our problem is this.  The house has three bedrooms, but we need more rooms, as between us we have 4 kids aged between 10 and 17 years.  There is ample room in the basement to make two extra bedrooms and a TV room for our teen girls.

We want to add a spiral staircase joining the basement to the main floor.  We would need to re-position the outside entrance to the basement.  This would involve moving a small section of outside wall and the door.  Finishing the basement would require waterproofing, building two interior walls, and installing a hanging ceiling.  It would be glorious if the basement windows could be made larger so that we can enjoy the awesome lake view.  After living in the desert for so long, we really appreciate the greenery and mature trees on the property.

I have included a photo of the view from the house, and some visual references for the flooring and color palette that we would like to use in the basement at this link:

I hope and that you can make our new, enlarged family’s dreams come true!

Sincerely

Oliver (and Susan, Megan, Tim, Jewell, and Dylan

Hi darling
Thanks for the news.  I was beginning to think that you had forgotten me.  It is so boring here that I need some news to brighten up my day.  Too hot for outdoors.  No car.  Ramadan.  Hardly anyone at work.  Tim and I are on diet.  I can't even do any shopping because I can't take it with me and I am trying to save money!!!  Hardly any TV channels.  Did I mention that I am really bored?
The Jeep went to its new home today, sad, and now I am a pedestrian.  Henk has offered his Pajero to me while he and Susan are away in August, so that will be great.
Pauline and her daughter Megan are coming over to swim with us later.  Tomorrow evening I am going to a gathering at Tara's apartment just up the road.
I had 3 more plumbing disasters this week because the plumber just put a band aid on the problem instead of fixing it properly.  Eventually I went and complained to the big boss.  Then the manager and the plumber had a fight outside my apartment and the security guards came.  It seems that the one problem is now fixed, but there is still water seeping out from under the toilet.  Uuuuuuuuurgh!!!!!  
I am busy at work because as usual Louise's material is a mess.  I am having to spend a lot of extra time preparing for each class because of this.  Anyhow.  Next week my class finishes.  The Marketing curriculum is being audited by our Australian auspice university in a few months, and ACK has nobody properly qualified to teach my subjects after I leave, so they will probably fail the audit  I don't feel bad.
I am soooooooooo jealous that you and the kids are going to Florida without us.  :o(   Hope you have fun, but so wish we were with you.  Be frugal, darling.
That's all the news for now.  Time is really dragging and I feel very frustrated.  I only had that one week holiday with you in the US the whole year, and I think that I really need a holiday too.
Love you and miss you.
 

 just got up thinking of you my love.  ran 7 miles yesterday, dropped off the camper at a mechanics shop.  everything is moving at a slow pace but it will save us some money in the long run and we will get what we want  jewell is coming later today, her sister is coming too, don't ask me why, but im thinking they both want to get away lol.  there is a mad dead spot on the phone reception at the house, i may have to go with another carrier, its awful.  today is the last day I will stay with my mother, its difficult for me to get alot accomplished when she is waiting on me all the time for dinner, etc. Bless her heart. real good news, the airconditioner works great, i got the water on, little leaks but im fixing them, i designed another storage area under the house, trying to maximize space.  other than that, i have been here less than a week.  jayce will be staying with me for a week so sunday nite im taking the kids to florida for a couple of days
 
i really like that property in hamilton but like you say it may be too far, i find myself not wanting to drive over there to look at it again so your probably right. however, i could see you really liking it, its soooo peaceful, i would love to live there.
 
will close for now, the other house of victory is a deal but soooo much work, you would like the area too, it would be a long term project of love believe me, renting would be no problem, its prime real estate. love you my dear, tell the kids i said hello and i love them too.
 

Hi Delaney
Oliver and I would like to put in offers on both of these properties.  Cash offers for both.  We have sufficient funds to cover both.
 

3012 Victory Circle Columbus, GA 31909

Offer of listed price of $15 000 with a $800 earnest money.

102 Pear Circle Hamilton, GA 31811

Offer of $13 000 with $800 earnest money.

We would like to purchase in both properties in both our names:

We would like to arrange inspections for both properties.  Oliver will attend the inspections.

I am still in Kuwait until 25th August, so Oliver will have to sign the offer and then you can send the scan to me to sign.

Oliver is leaving Columbus for a few days on Sunday, so I hope that he can sign before he leaves.

Many thanks!

Sue
