Down to the wire

So we are down to the wire. If we do not have the final confirmation letter from the lender by Wednesday we lose the house and our down payment. No house, no money. So not wanting that to happen. I am wishing with all of my heart, my soul, and my being that the letter comes through. I'm not sure how I would be able to handle rejection of this magnitude. How to lose this dream. I'm not sure I can do it. Maybe Karma will be good to me. Maybe I will get to realize this dream of mine...Here's hoping.

Hot Damn! Now we are gettin somewhere..

So the mortgage company called to "welcome me aboard". It's nice to know they are so customer service oriented. I thought that was wicked cool. I can't wait to tell to the loan processor next week. I can't believe they took the time out of their day to welcome me. It's just amazing - they are loaning me money to achieve one of my most heartfelt dreams (owning a home) AND they are making me feel like a human being and not just an application number. This company totally rocks and due to the fact that I am to sure I am allowed to mention their name I will not. Email me and I will give you a personally reference.

Everyone says that buying your first house is extremely stressful (and that is true) but without my realtor, Ed, and the mortgage company, and the lawyer (Ed's recommendation) this would have totally SUCKED. We had a realtor before Ed and she was the absolute worst. We did not gel and she just did not seem to "get" us. We owe the world and Karma a debt of gratitude for bringing Ed into our lives. Hopefully some day I can return the favor.

26 days until we move into our home. Our home...nothing has ever sounded so wonderful to me...EVER!

Oh the humanity...or just another day in the life

So I am suppose to be finishing up my homework for class. It isn't due until tomorrow, but I want to get ahead of the game. I'd like to pack some too. (Oh yea....only 27 days until we own our own home!!) I never used to procrastinate like this. Once I started taking my meds (which are really helping), but I cannot seem to be as driven as I once was. Hopefully soon I will get it figured out.
Peace.

Hanging in there

So it is raining like a bastard here and would have been the perfect day to shop for furniture for the new house, but the flu or a miserable cold has brought the Man to his knees. I can always shop online I suppose, but it's tough to jump on furniture that way.

We close on the new house in December and so the list making has begun. For any who do not know me I l.o.v.e. to make lists and yes, I do complete them. It's a challenge. Like a double-dog dare to myself. Whatever gets all of this shit done!

Still trying to figure out this whole blogging deal. My Com310 class tells me I should not share on the web, but then we discuss the need to communicate with one another. WTF! Make up your minds people and move on..... Speaking of class I need to get today's assignments completed. Until later,
Bless

Day One

So I have finally gotten off my proverbial ass and started my blog. It took me long enough. Talk about freaked out. I have wanted to start a blog for the last three years and have been too chicken shit to start to it. Now that I have 6 Pineapple Passions and half a bottle of wine in me it is finally time to man up. Now that I have begun there will be no stopping me. That's how I roll.

This will get better. I just know it.

By the way, congratulate me...I bought a house today.....bloggin' ain't nothin' compared to droppin' that kinda cheddah. :)

Peace!
