Everyone else is doing it!

So, I have decided to start a blog. (I know at least one person who will be excited by this!)

Q: Why am I starting a blog?
A: Because I need a stress reliever, and I have no other time away from this office or this desk.

Q: Am I going to commit to writing everyday?
A: No.. but I think it would help me (mentally at least) if I tried to.

Let's get to posting!

I am ending an 11 hour workday. I cannot WAIT to get home to my wonderful husband, and two rambunctious (but oh so adorable) children. We are in the process of potentially buying a house, which has me so frazzled I can barely think at times. More on that later, though.

Yesterday we submitted our prelimenary application for a loan with Rural Development (and thank God I can spell that word better than I can pronounce it). Tomorrow we will submit our second application, which will (and I pray) be accepted! Basically, we were going to buy this house so we moved in in March... June rolls around, we go to sign the papers and guess what? ALL the terms that we had been told from the get-go (i.e. interest rate, purchase price, etc.) had been changed, and not in our favor. Since we didn't agree to those terms WE were made out to be liars and horrible people by the "businessman" who was handling the sale for the owners. Now they have decided NOT to sell us this house (or at least do owner financing for us) and since Joey and I do not have two solid years' worth of W2s then no bank will finance us. Our last option was to go to RD, and I pray we hear good news from them. Please keep us in your cyber-prayers, cyberworld.. we could really use it!
