It seems like forever.....the length of a pregnancy to be exact!

Brief overview of whats happened in the last nine months:
-bought a house
-moved into the house
-furnished the house
-Celebrated Easter
-Celebrated Canada Day
-Celebrated one year of wedded bliss
-Celebrated Halloween (i use the word celebrated loosely here)
-Now onto Christmas. First one in the new house, having all the family over, should be fun : )

See you in the next nine months...ha ha just kidding....maybe

Closer to the Goal

We found out today that everything went well with the appraiser over the weekend. We were finally able to sign off for the financing issue! Yay, no more sleepless nights crying in bed over it. Just a few more things to sign and the house will officially be ours. I can't wait!!

Waiting!

So, we found out the other day that the bank is sending in an appraiser to look at the house. Nobody told us this would be happening so when i heard about it i assumed it was something bad. Apparently they do that will all houses that are being sold so i guess everything is okay. I just want this whole thing to be over with already, I WANT MY HOUSE! If everything goes okay we will get the keys in two weeks, so exciting but nerve wracking at the same time! Wish us luck!

Price Stickers!

Never in my life have i ever went into a store, picked up an item and asked the employee working there if that was the REAL price. Why would I?? I'm going to assume since its called a PRICE STICKER that is the price.
Some complete moron came into the store yesterday and asked me if we had Jello Shooters. I showed him where they were and then he comes up to me and asks me if thats the price. I told him if thats what the sticker says than YES. He's like, seriously?? Yes, i know its hard for you to understand because your an idiot and probably only think with one thing but if its priced at $13 then guess what?? OMG, wait for it....wait for it.....IT IS THE PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay, now that we have completed Being an Idiot 101 lets move onto "Why is it sold out?" written and illustrated by I Live Under A Rock!

A house, possibly!

My husband and i are going to put in an offer on a duplex on Thursday. I really hope we get it, its exactly what we want and I'm already decorating it in my head. Which is probably a bad thing since i tend to get my hopes up only to have them crushed : ( I can't help but be excited though because if everything goes well this will be our first home!! Yay!

Wedding Invites

This girl came into the store tonight right before i left to look at wedding invites. She asked me what information she needed in her invitation. Maybe its me but i thought that stuff was self explanatory, i mean i know i work with Wedding Invites but come on. I feel kind of bad 'cause i was kind of making fun of her for it but there comes a point in ones life where you just have to not care and laugh at the stupidity of the human race.
I also had another customer about a week ago order invitations. She picked one that required your monogram on the front and she actually asked me if she had to use the same letters as the sample invitation!! I was like "Well, if your names don't start with those letters i wouldn't suggest it" lol She also had to ask her Dad how to spell her middle name and it gets worse.....she had a kid! Now i know why so many young kids now days are complete morons!

House Hunting

My husband and I met our real estate agent today. He's a really nice guy and around our age so hopefully he will be able to find us something we like.

We are going house hunting on Wednesday and i can't wait! I just want our own house already, something that WE actually own and can decorate however we like.
