Offer 7 & 8 today..

Does anyone know about FHA loans? We were planning on conventional but we hear that FHA loans look better to REO banks and we really need help actually getting a home that we offer on.

At least the economy is in our favor. Homes here have dropped almost 40% in the last 2 years. What was utterly unattainable is now within our reach. It is crazy & sad though that what is a great benefit to us is ruining the lives of many others. There still aren't any 30Grand houses out there though. I guess you got to move to Buffalo for that.

Well pretty fun to see your blog. Isaac is reading over my shoulder and said, "I don't think I ever seen these people, No Mom don't write that,....Mooooom!" Hmm..., now he's not saying anything. Good luck on the loans. We did an 80/20 which means 100% financing. Yikes I'm guessing you can't do that today. It worked for us though. I'd vote for prop 8; toodles

Speedy Gonzales and the Black Stretchy Pants

Tues April 6 started as any other day. We woke up and went to a doctors appointment for the girls. That afternoon when I got home I was starving. I ate way too much and then soon got a headache that I blamed on the chocolate dessert that I ate. After resting for a while the phone rang and it was a neighbor who started off the phone call saying "I was hoping that you wouldn't answer because you would be at the hospital. I laughed at her and said no way I have at least two more weeks left. After the phone call about 6:30 Dave told me our goat had had a baby but had died so we called all the kids out and told them about it and we buried it. Then we had a late dinner and put the kids to bed. About 5 minutes later I had a contraction. I thought weird and Dave told me it was just goat sympathy pains. So as I had a few more sporadic contractions I convinced myself that it was just braxton hicks because there was no way that they were "real." I sat down and watched AI ...

Yesterday the boys had a school holiday so Dave took a day off and we headed for the mountains. My awesome husband loves to ski and spent many hours on the slopes, but that was all before he married me. I would love for him to ski but life happens with a family and budgets exist and it makes skiing a hard hobby to maintain. Plus we spent about 3.5 yrs in Minnesota where you get lots of snow but not a single ski hill in sight-what a waste of snow. The last couple years, I have tried harder to give my husband chances to ski. We even went out about 3 years ago and purchased all the gear at a rental store going out of business. And I close my eyes as I see how much we pay, tell myself it is all worth it, and then smile. (Remember I am cheap so skiing just wouldn't naturally be on my radar.) This year for Christmas I gave my husband 2 lift tickets purchased for a great deal at Costco. First of all, I am used to spending lots of money at Costco and that way I wouldn't stress ...
