Both ranches mentioned in the last post were a bust. We’re going to see 4 houses this Saturday and then start looking at townhouses.
I rolled my Abbott 401K into an IRA so that I can access money easily for a downpayment without penalty. However, I can only take out $10,000 (minus taxes) toward a house and Kyle won’t be able to take anything out of his retirement since he has a 403B instead of a 401K. We should still be in good shape, though.
I still need to mail in my passport application this week. I am going to do expedited services, so it should be here in 2 weeks. In theory. According to the government. Who you know is very trustworthy. Cough. Anyway, once that’s done I’ll have completed everything I was supposed to do during my vacation two weeks ago. Cough.
My first paycheck is coming on Thursday. It’s about effing time; I’ve been a month now without seeing income. Hooray for diligent savings, but I’m ready to stop having a heart attack every time I check my bank account.
Week 2 at my new job and I’m starting to settle in. I got mad bookcase bling, yo. If nothing else, grad school has forced me to acquire an impressive library. I also ordered this for my wall and am trying to justify having this framed for my office.
