So if all goes well Adeline and i will be buying our first home!
http://mlsli.com/uniDetails.CFM?MLNum=1890373&typeprop=1&start=1&rpp=20 we bid lower than the asking price and have the appointment with the engineer tomorrow to inspect it and make sure we're not buying a money pit.
I had never conceived of what a huge expense a 30 year mortgage is, it'll be a lot of cutting back for a while until we both are making a bit more money. So the little things i splurge on myself are going mostly bye bye. including stuff like 2 imperials :)
