This may sound really lame but I am so happy my husband qualified for a home loan without my income!! The home loan would get us a pretty good house, too. We won't be able to have our dream home, but a dream home is what you make of it!! This will be our 3rd home but the first one that he has qualified for alone. I usually have to add my income but really can't right now because of maternity disability. I am a happy camper.
We saw a few houses we like but there are just too many pros and a few cons with each one. How in the heck do we decide?? The cheaper house is in a neighborhood with a lot of older people and hardly any kids. I guess there is a 4 year old boy a few houses down. That's good if they are semi-normal people and don't move. I have never had this much difficulty with deciding on a home. There are just so many factors for consideration. I really don't want to move again for a long time. Consistency is so important for youngsters and our little man has lived in three houses already:( That is not counting our brief 8 months stint in an apt.
We have looked at everything from taxes to school district/schools. We are looking at the location and life style living in each place. It is driving me batty!!
I have this extreme nesting I want to do but can't right now because we are in a short term rental! I also am waiting for call backs from different school districts to let me know about job interviews or possible jobs. I am a planner and my life is in disarray!!! The school districts in this area just take way too long to get back to you. In other states, people would immediately call me when I sent in my application because my job area was in high demand. Perhaps that is not the case here. My baby is due in a little over two months and my son has that poopy problem. With all of that said, I think I need a long massage. Not being able to have sex for over 17 weeks has been a little difficult, too. Perhaps that is why I am so uptight!!!
I really want to just find our home to be settled, find a good church, find some friends, find a job, have a very healthy baby, settle my son's poop problem....the list can go on.
So, at least something good happened today!! My hubby qualified for a loan alone!! For that I am happy.
Sorry, I had no idea I would vent this much. I think I am extremely anxious right now!!
