Never buy a home when you're a thousand miles away. Daniel is in Virginia right now looking for homes and he sucks at it. I keep finding homes I like and by the time I get him to go with the realtor to see the house an offer is already put in for it. We found a 1920 Victorian house that was gutted and remodeled but the owner was being really picky on what she wanted on the contract so we walked away. Now that we walked away she is telling us that we can have whatever we want. I love the house but I'm really scared to buy an old house. Tomorrow he is going to look at two houses that are under construction. Hopefully they will have large enough yards and good neighborhoods. I'm getting so frustrated that I'm almost ready to drive there myself and find the house.
Anywho, that's really all I've been doing lately is looking for homes and staying in contact with our realtor. I will be glad when we are finally closed on a home. Actually, I'll be glad when we are closed and unpacked. Anyone want to come to VA with me and unpack? Didn't think so.
In about two weeks my brother in Tennessee and my sister in Georgia will be up here to visit. It is the first time in about 11 years that all 10 of my brothers and sisters are going to be together in the same place. I'm very excited. Hopefully, I will be able to get us all together for a picture appointment. I'll have to post that. We all look adopted because we all range in our looks from short to tall and red hair to blonde hair. I can't believe its been that long since we've all been together. It makes me sad because we have fallen away from each other and become so busy. I hope my boys stay in touch with each other and me, most importantly:)
Blah blah blah.
