I placed another counter-offer on the home in Acworth on Thursday after their ridiculous offer and expected to receive another stubborn response Friday afternoon. Me and Jenna started searching for more homes Thursday night and found a few prospective properties. I looked further south and in-town but we were not as happy with anything we could ( Read more... )

I received a counter offer on the home today and I was extremely disappointed at the seller’s lack of cooperation. They are acting as if it is still a seller’s market even though they recently dropped the price because no one was interested. I requested that they drop the price $6,500 and pay closing costs; however, they responded with their list ( Read more... )

I haven’t updated recently because I have been overwhelmed with preparing for the wedding and attempting to find a house. Thankfully we have accomplished a lot in the past few weeks. I feel like a lot of the wedding tasks have been completed and we finally found a home that we are both interested in. We found the house on Sunday and put an offer on ( Read more... )

I have come to expect that people living in Georgia cannot function with heavy rain or snow but my expectations were far surpassed tonight. Me and Jenna decided to start looking for wedding bands and we thought that the mall would be a good starting point. When we arrived Jenna mentioned that the mall looked surprisingly empty, I figured that ( Read more... )

Yesterday I was sitting at my desk and was surprised to hear it was snowing outside. I have always enjoyed the snow but I hate the way Atlanta drivers act when it starts snowing, even if it’s not accumulating on the roads. I decided to leave my office a little early to avoid the moron drivers and just work from home. I couldn’t help going outside ( Read more... )

I finally upgraded my WordPress installation tonight. I have been receiving numerous spam comments on a daily basis and, after speaking to Thomas, I decided to try upgrading my WordPress installation. I’m normally pretty good about keeping my software versions up to date; however, this software had lapsed and was numerous versions behind, it was 2. ( Read more... )

I purchased a new pistol today, the Ruger MarkIII4 22mm. I had contemplated purchasing a 22mm range pistol for quite some time and finally decided to buy one today. The pistol only cost $260 (before tax) so I felt like it was a better decision than the Sig P226, for now, which generally costs around $900. I haven’t had an opportunity to shoot this ( Read more... )

I went back to the doctor today to have my recent MRI reviewed and to discuss my options. The doctor requested that I take two additional x-rays, one of my knee cap and one of a standing position, so he could get a better view of my knee. After taking the additional xrays, viewing my MRI, and speaking with me he determined that it would be best to ( Read more... )

This Christmas was enjoyable, we spent part of the day at each of our parent’s houses. We started by going to Jenna’s parents where we ate breakfast and exchanged gifts. They gave us a lot more than I expected, I always feel like they give me too much though. Afterwards we went to my parents house and continued the gift and eating trend. I feel ( Read more... )

Tonight was me and Jenna’s first Christmas Eve alone together. The day was pretty uneventful, we spent most of it finishing presents and hanging out but it was still very nice. We decided to open our presents from each other tonight because we are going to be at other family members homes all day tomorrow and didn’t want to carry our presents with ( Read more... )
