Wishin' & Hope-in'
It's been a mad fury of looking at houses to see what' on the market here, we are hoping that we can do a couple of things with this move. We would like to be closer (as in --IN TOWN) so that we are not constantly driving back and forth from town, we would like something that is not so difficult for me to look after whilst Collin is away at school for the next 3 years, and to get ahead a bit financially. We have been very fortunate with the last 2 houses that we've bought/sold that we've done work to them and made a bit of a profit each time.. and who doesn't like that?
So we are hoping to get into something that is mid-range (i.e. under $200,000) so that maybe, just maybe we could be mortgage free prior to needing a wheelchair!
The market is good here, but it seems that we are a picky bunch.. we want 4 BDRMS, 2 BATH, side by side parking, a place to park the holiday trailer & sundeck & a fenced yard. Who knew that would be so hard to find? We have looked at about 6 houses, and non are EXACTLY what we need, but there is one.. that we all just feel at home in.. but.. we are "Wishin' & Hope-in' & Pray'in & Smoke'in (well Collin is)" until we hear back about our offer. *sigh* it's hard to wait.. patience is not a virtue that I would say either of us possess!
If this one doesn't work out.. I just don't know.. guess we will have to make up a plan B!
UPDATE =
Well plan A did not work out, we can't come to an agreement on the price. We are both OK with it though - this was offer #2 on this same place so it just is not meant to be. We'll just keep lookin'

What is Collin going to school for? I recall my parents saying they had met him when he was briefing staying at Sherie's house.

OHHHH, how exciting!
I hope the offer is accepted soon. I know how hard it is playing the waiting game. Been there done that, too recently too. I can't wait till we move at the end of the month. The new house is so much bigger than our house now. Can't wait to see you guys before the wedding it has been so long.

Jules, he is going to be a Glazier - working with Glass. I didn't know that he had met your parents, wtf??? why am I always the last to know?
Thats great! Good money in the trades. Yes back in...err March maybe? My mom/dad said they had met him while he was staying at Sherie's.
My mom is so funny she said and I quote "Lil Jenny" hahaha
Sorry to hear the deal didn't work out. Funny how fate works, guess it wasn't your house. Yours will come along soon ((HUGS))
Oh Jenny, good luck on that.
