Oh man. Buying a house is stressful! All this back and forth-ing, decision-making, deciding just how broke we can be for the next few years. Good times.
Plus, I am kinda down because this if the first Christmas I won't be home. We've done a good job of decorating, baking, and being festive, but now with all my co-workers heading home, reality is starting to sink in. I miss my parents!
But we will make the best of this exciting and new time. We've decided to get away from it all and head up to the mountains for the weekend. We will be camping Saturday night at the Great Smokey Mountains National Forest, in the snow and everything. Then Sunday, Trent booked us in a fancy lodge/hotel for one evening of luxury. Which is pretty much what we can afford with the pending house buying situation. I am so excited to get away and relax and quit doing science and house buying for a bit.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend before Christmas where ever you are!
Hey! What about your siblings?! Don't you miss Penney?!
ReplyDeleteKidding! Have a great time in the back woods and Merry Christmas!
(You'll be getting another package soon, I found a secret stockpile of things I had bought for you for Christmas a while ago and forgot about.)
