27 was alright. I got divorced, got my EA credentials, got promoted, sold my house, put an offer in on a new house, made some really huge life plans, among other things. I'm hoping that 28 will p...

And I hit my first bump in the house buying road. So I was initially going to get an FHA loan since I wanted to put less down (3.5% versus at least 5% for a conventional loan). So that required a...

Nothing like some Harvest pizza to brighten my day. They have THE best mushroom pie. And bestest of all is that on July 7, I will be living right down the street from it and could walk there on a...

I still find myself absent-mindedly typing "opendiary.com" into my browser, and just before I hit enter, I remember that it will get me nowhere. And it's still pretty saddening. It's the first d...

I had an entire entry written out, but it was kind of vent-y about my family and probably not worth rewriting. Basically, my family is awkward and forced and roomie got to see that first hand to...

I woke up in a very fowl mood. Having to get up at 6:30 didn't really help. Had to meet with my realtor before going out of town, and we were scheduled to leave around 9:30. I slept most of the w...

I just can't write an entry on time. Today was a stay in bed morning. I think I woke up around one. The rest of the weekend I have plans, but today I had none. I did go over to the short north ...

I took the day off work and met the home inspector at eight to walk through the new house. Nothing alarming came up, just a few small things. I'll likely ask for a couple fixes and they'll probab...

We sold the house! There wasn't much of a question that it would happen, but regardless it's very nice to have it settled. The money has been deposited into my account so that part is done. And m...

I think there is a law of nature that a house closing is not allowed to go off without a hitch. Thankfully I think I found mine and it's been settled. In the HUD I looked at yesterday, the prop...

See the last two entries for some juice details into the goings-on of my life. I pre-signed the closing documents today on my home. We are getting just over $12k from the home itself and our esc...

Let's see, where do I even begin with the drama that has been defining my life recently? I came back on the 9:30 ferry from PIB and was home at 12:15. Chris needed me to come by the house and cl...

Overall this has been fun. I am the youngest one here but I feel like the old unfun one. I wasn't aware that it was cool to drink oneself into oblivion. R's sister passed out at seven. R passed o...

I'm about to leave for R's bachelorette party! I'm a little anxious about it, just because that's how I am, but it will probably be a fun time. I'm supposed to be hearing back today about that ...

I'm in the process of making an offer on a home. The first one I looked at! I love it. http://m.realtor.com/#details?property_id=3534267486 I looked at one other for about ten minutes and it j...

Today was an emotional roller coaster. But it ended with vegan hot dogs and some seriously good company so I'll take the bad with the good. I'm looking at houses tomorrow! If I fall in love wit...

It's been one of those days. I woke up grumpy, someone knocked my car's passenger side view mirror off (fortunately didn't break the glass and the wire is still intact), and I fell asleep grumpy ...

I talked with my new realtor today. She's different from the one who is selling my house. My other realtor seems to be working more for Chris than me, and more for buyers than for either of us. S...

Happy Mother's Day. This day in particular can be very hard for many of us for many different reasons. If that's you, I hope you found comfort today. You're not alone.

Things on the house front are still great. Still in contract. Still on schedule to close on May 22. I have an appointment with the bank Monday to finalize the pre approval process and then I will...

I love Fridays. Is there anything more perfect? I came home from work and napped for an hour before going out to dinner at an Asian fusion restaurant. Things with the house are still going great...

And our house is in contract! They are a cash buyer so I don't anticipate huge problems there. They want to move into the house at closing and they want to close in two weeks! I'm fine with it. ...

The weather may have reached perfection today. I spent the whole time being cooped up in my office so I was happy to get out by the time I had the chance. Roomie wanted to find a patio and I thou...

I broke down tonight and bought myself a new pair of Chucks. Hot pink. I already have green, light pink, black, and sparkly red, and I've been eyeing the hot pink ones for a while. I'd also event...
