While currently in the process of buying a house (yikes!) I must admit that I've had some things come up. Thoughts fill my mind and most of them are none too funny, more terrifying, and the occasional "Awwwww" moment. Seeing how my thought process is quite fragmentary, typical sentence to paragraph structure does not seem applicable. So with thoughts afloat on my stream of consciousness I'll begin with:
I have never seen or even dealt with this much "potential" money in my entire life.
23 years ain't exactly a great span of time.
Home is where the heart is? Then I have rather spread out heart.
84 days and counting to find the place that my bride-to-be and myself can call home.
I'd really like "home" to be in the form of "a house".
I have no idea how Jess is gonna put up with me.
Don't do business with family unless it's coming from their last will and testament.
I think that spot over the septic tank would be a wonderful place for a garden.
No really, it would be an awesome place for it.
I really am Owen Wilson's character from "Me & Marley", aren't I?
I'm not much of a handy man, but I will do all I can to make this "house" a "home"
IT COSTS HOW MUCH TO REPLACE A ROOF?!
Oh, well, not too bad when you take out the cost of labor.
I love the view from that front porch.
BLACKBERRIES! PERSIMMONS! POSSIBLE APPLES! Yummm...
...
...it seems my mind has deviated to the thoughts of food. I will follow those thoughts as well as my nose away from this keyboard and out in search of something tasty. If anyone has any advice on just how exactly to get federal loans and such to go through, or which banks have first time buyer incentives or any other advice, it is very welcome.
I'll wrap up with a simple request. I've learned in my life that intercessory prayer is huge. I don't think I'd be the person I am today if it wasn't for my grandmother and other family praying for me. I mean praying HARD. I would feel greatly blessed if you would pray for my fiance, Jess, our work towards a house, myself and anything else those of you more experienced in life feel I'm forgetting.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And thank you.
