Houses
After years of talking about wanting to move out, Michael and I will be doing so very shortly! None of this is news to anyone on my Facebook page, but thought I'd put something about it on here anyway.
After months of saving, we reached our target figure of £5000, so made an appointment at the bank to find out whether we had a hope in hell of getting a mortgage. Turns out we did, because about four days later, we had a phone call telling us we'd been approved! So we set about house hunting. We saw quite a few houses, and to be honest, only one or two were awful, so it was looking like it was going to be difficult to pick. But as many people had told us would happen, when we found "the one", we knew, so we made an offer and here we are. We've had a survey done, found a solicitor and everything, now we're just waiting. But fingers crossed, we should be in our house around October.
So far, we've bought a fridge freezer, washer dryer, sofa, microwave, table and chairs and countless other "bits". My mum and dad's garage is getting pretty full!
I just want to get in there!
