House hunting

Jeff and I were approved for a home loan. We are pretty excited to make that leap to home ownership. We had been toying with the idea for about a year, and Jessica's decision spurred us along. I already told Jess it isn't a competition, but she did get her degree right before me, and now a house. Hopefully, I can say I had a baby before her, but at the rate we are going she might beat us.

We have an appointment Saturday to go and look at some houses.

This is at the top of our list right now. It is so cute. We drove past last weekend and peeked in the windows. The kitchen looks like it has been completely redone. It is a 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home. There is a two car garage in back. There is a full basement, hardwood floors and a bay window in front. I love the french doors that lead from the living room to the dining room. Downside: no appliances, so we would have to buy all the appliances (oven, dishwasher, refrigerator) Price: $175,000

This is another house our realtor forwarded to us. It is a 3 bedroom, 1 bath. We haven't driven past to peek in the windows, plus it is still occupied. All appliances included. Downside: only 1 bathroom, no basement. Price: $159,000

We were looking for another house on our drive and came across this one. It is Jeff's favorite just from appearances and location. It is a 3 bedroom, 1 3/4 bath house. There is a full basement and a private yard. The kitchen is practically brand new and the bathrooms are updated. Downside: out of our price range (we qualify for the amount, but I don't want to spend that much), further away from work. Price: $215,000
We are excited to just see what is out there. Wish us luck!

Going Private

I think after a year and some odd months, it is time to make this blog private. If you need to change your email, let me know.

It will commence privitization (sorry, no public option) November 1.

Sunday, October 18, 2009

For the last few months, I have been gaining weight rapidly, my ankles and fingers swell, I have an upset stomach, heartburn, and I am exhausted and in such intense pain, that I can't even describe it. There are days I cannot even move, but I force myself up and around, because things need to get done. I woke up Thursday with a sty in my eye, too.

No, I am not pregnant, but something is wrong with me. I went to the doctor on Friday and talked to her about everything that is going on. She ordered a battery of blood tests for the various things she thinks might be. Because I have gained 40 pounds since my wedding, she put me on prescription prenatal vitamins, so that if I do get pregnant, I will have enough folic acid and my baby won't have spinal problems. Fun, huh? I have high blood pressure, so she wants to see what these tests come back with before she prescribes high blood pressure medicine.

I will hopefully be able to have my blood drawn tomorrow (Monday). I had eaten breakfast Friday morning and Dr. Faircloth wanted me to be fasting. I will let you know what I find out.
