House hunting, we found our last car at the mechanics with a siren saying "buy me" on top. Needed a comfy car was presented a luxury mini van the same price we sold our small sedan for. A previous van we found when my college car dropped its transmission right outside the lot and we had a big tax refund.
Yesterday we saw a cheaper 3 bedroom, 2 bath one is a whirlpool, house so laid back and welcoming to us. The previous people had painted it crazy colors inside. They even turned a back yard fence in to a piano keyboard. What would be my room has a boarder of Raphael's baby angels. The neighbors on both sides have little yappy dogs like ours, no probs with that, and instead of bands of roving kids just bands of people hanging out in their garages drinking beer.
The only struggle for me is I'm paying 40% of my income for rent and I need to try and save 50% for the deposit and moving in expenses. But I will get it back when we get the deposits back on this house. Just a tough couple of months ahead.
