Monthly Update

For all of you eagerly awaiting an update on the ceiling situation, the landlord has put on two coatings of plaster and will, hopefully, finish the last one this week. So that's exciting. I'm hoping it doesn't all come crashing back down in the next rainstorm.

Saturday was my boy's and my 4 year anniversary. We celebrated by cooking at the grand opening of the soup kitchen where we volunteer. We were told the turn out for breakfast was huge but apparently everyone filled up before lunch cause there wasn't much of a crowd when we made it downstairs.

I have also fallen in love with another house (well I was sort of in love with a summer home up in NH with three acres of land, but realized that we couldn't afford it and it got no tax incentive, so that dream is on hold for awhile -- though not completely forgotten, if we rented it out I am convinced we could break even on it, but whatever). The last time I was in love with a house I kept it a secret and would only show it to those of you who privately messaged me, and, you know, those of you I send every link to every house to. This time, I am fairly convinced the house will sell out from under us, so even though I am pretty set on wanting it, and excited about the size of the yard and the driveway that looks large enough to someday build a garage, not to mention the two block walk to one of our favorite restaurants, I am also willing to share it with all of you, my loyal readers. Here she is in all her glory.

We're signed up for a first time home buyers class and, as of today, we're in big time saver mode. If you wanna pray that we get it, we'd (okay really mostly me, my boy is on board, but not nearly as excited as I am) really appreciate it.

Okay, I realize this isn't the greatest post, but I have a terrible headache and it's hard to get back on the writing regularly schedule. . .
