WE GOT IT!! WE GOT IT!!!
General September 15th, 2008We got the house!! The sellers counter-offered with the price we were going to start at on Friday anyway, so hubby jumped on it! WOO HOO!!! As long as our financing goes through (and it should) we will hopefully be proud homeowners by the end of next month. Hopefully anyway. We are going to give notice at our apartment to let them know we’ll be out by the end of October, so we will HAVE to be homeowners by then!
I am trying not to think about everything that needs to be done in the next month and a half. Besides packing (ugh), we have to figure out flooring and paint and have it ready to be put in as soon as we get keys to the house. Not to mention the amounts of money we are going to be dealing with. Very scary.
I totally suck though because I was going to bring my camera into work to send pics of the house to family members and I was going to post one on here (including a picture of my shirt -which I am wearing today). I brought the port for the camera but not the camera!! I will definitely do it tomorrow.
Food and exercise at the moment is on the back burner. I’m keeping my calories in line (except for this weekend which was a total bust and I never want to eat another oreo cookie again) but i don’t know how often I’ll get to the gym this week.

I am going to look into the roasted kale thing. I always just boil it and douse it with cider vinegar. I grew up having it often, except mom always put like bacon grease and stuff in it. My mom who is now going to have to have something done on her carotid arteries because they are blocked.
I heart cooking light. I have a three ring binder and I print out recipes from the website and put them in little page protector thingies (’cause I tend to always spill stuff on recipes). Those recipes help me keep my fat content low and also helps me know what a reasonable portion is since somewhere along the way I got REAL confused about that, apparently!!
