I too just got back to land of the living -- so to speak. So I'm runnin' around here hittin' up all of my old haunts!!

Hope you're doing well sweetie.

Hey Fit

How am I?

I think that sums me up

1. Yes moving forward quickly on a loan. Just waiting for a approval for FHA or otherwise we go conventional. I want FHA because the payments will be lower than conventional, but just have to wait and see. I will get out of the lease

If they want to hit me with penalities I'm going to tell them to sue me and take it to a jury trial. NO jury here will side with the complex after everything that has happened here.
2. I plan to find a house I like, but it will not be my dream home

Right now my goal is to find something with land (5-10 acres) with a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, that I can afford. Hopefully the cheaper the better because then I can either make improvements or pay it off quicker and then build/rebuild what I want.
3. Slowly getting back into it. If I hit the gym atleast once a week I am ahead of the game

Hope all is well with you.

Things will fall into place my Friend, have Faith!!!

Devlin · 03-08-2007, 06:03 PM

Thank you so much Arch!!! I am majorly stressed outmover everything, however amazingly work is going very, very well. Boss is calm, happy and has given me multiple compliments about how good a job I am doing as office manager. Clients have even commented to him about how good a job I am doing. Boss has even relaxed to the point and trusts me to the point he has even handed over placing supply/drug orders completely to me

when previously he had to approve every order prior to it being placed.

I got a call about a property today that I thought may be promising, however when the owner of the place said, "I'm not sure you will be interested in this place after I tell you about it." I began to worry. Turns out the place gives new meaning to fix it upper and made the Jeff Foxworthy special I looked at yesterday look good.

So the search continues....

I got in a little workout this evening after work. I went to the farm to exercise my horse and ended up literally jogging with her a few times. The last time was an easy 1/8 to 1/4 mile jog to her field. Never thought I would end up jogging with my horse like some people jog with their dogs, but it worked

Archangel · 03-09-2007, 04:45 PM

That would be a sight to behold, you running along side a horse!!! LOL!!!

Keep your chin up and heart light, work sounds like it going Great for ya, so the "House" thing is right around the corner for you, have Faith my Friend!!!

It's just like jogging with a large dog, a 950lb dog with a long stride

It's actually easy to jog with my horse. When I start to jog she trots next to me like it is nothing strange.

It's is not easy Arch. I'm the type that loves immediate gradification so waiting for the approval is killing me. I hope to drive by a couple properties tmorrow to narror the field down more. I drove by one last week and it was a Jeff Foxworthy special

and another that I called about gave new meaning to fix it upper

So they have been scratched off the list

So your sayin "You might be a redneck if you buy that property"

Ughh no gym this weekend. I have spent 2 days in bed with migraines and major upset stomach. Finally feeling better today, but no where near up to going to the gym. Just going to rest and try to get laundry and some cleaning done.

Fitgirl70 · 03-12-2007, 08:40 AM

I'm feeling much better today

Ohh kewl just had to try the new smileys

As bad as the Foxworthy special may have been I bet it had hot water which is something I don't have yet again at my apartment

Archangel · 03-12-2007, 07:32 PM

Just droppin in to say your in my thoughts my Friend!!!

Ohh good news.....I've graduated from no hot water to NO WATER AT ALL

Sorry all, I've got to laugh about it now or I'm going to loose it. Apparently the water that has been running out from the under the ground floor apartment on the other side of my building was the indication that a pipe had broke under that side of my building. The water was running out when I came home at 7pm-ish and who knows how long it had been running prior to me getting home. Maintance finally came out around 9 pm after being called at 8:30 and declared we had a broken pipe. They shut off the water to my entire building and said we probably would not have water until tomorrow sometime.

Ohh and the woman who lives in the ground floor apartment...well maintance told her she may have water damage to her apartment. If the complex isn't repairing fire damage they are repairing water damage

Tell her to look at the bright side. If everything is soaked, there's less chance of it burning.

Devlin · 03-14-2007, 03:11 PM

Sorry all just a breezing through here. I'm about to leave work, but wanted to say HI and that I'm still alive, no fires. Water is back running or it was still this morning, but no land line for the phone now

Apparently someone cut the underground fiber cable for the phones. Wonder who did that

Ohh most likely the ding bats that are tearing the building down next to mine

Well I'm off to see my horse and what awaits me at home....

Devlin · 03-17-2007, 07:14 PM

Well so far things are quiet at my complex. Water still running, water is hot, and phone line is still working. Work is now crazy as the busy season has decended on us and our new vet while picking up alot of work which makes the day a bit shorter is dropping the ball on way too many things which is causing lots of stress. I'm still house hunting. I went with my realtor today to look at two properties and the one I had high hopes of is now off my list

It was just about perfect. Right in my price range, 3 bedrooms, 5 acres, cleared land, fenced (would have had to switch out the barb wire for horesy safe fence, but the fence posts were all there). Problem the ad said "needs someone to add the finishing touches to make it a doll house." Translation....gut the inside or better yet just demo the house

The second property is now at the top of my list. House is nice, no apparent work needs to be done to it, 5 acres. Problems...the list price is just over my price limit and land is only partially cleared (maybe an acre total is clear) and none of it is fenced. So the search continues.....

Fitgirl70 · 03-19-2007, 02:34 PM

Dev, you'll find something darlin'....don't sweat it!

In the meantime, glad everything at complex hell hole is finally good.

Archangel · 03-19-2007, 05:08 PM

Like above, glad its going better at least for you, GOD speed and Best Wishes!!!

Devlin · 03-22-2007, 09:21 PM

Hey all....I'm still around. Been busy with work and not feeling well. So far things are still quiet at my complex, but the end of the month is approaching and we no longer have security at night

On the good news side...I got a call today saying my mortgage has been approved

I can officially make an offer on a place.

Bad news...haven't found a place to make an offer on and I'm down to about 5 weeks before I have to move

To say I'm stressed is a huge understatement.

Well I'm off to get some rest

Devlin · 03-25-2007, 08:13 PM

Ughh I'm still on the great house hunt and not having much luck. My biggest road block is finding a place in my price range that FHA will approve. My agent has been great. Both of us are searching online and while I do drive bys, he gets details I either can't and makes calls to get specifics from the listing agents. Between the two of us we narrow down which listings for which ones to get showings on.

With not having luck on finding a home, I'm getting very discouraged and depressed. It doesn't help that security is no longer patrolling our complex so my stress at home is back. On friday morning I awoke to the smell of smoke coming in my sliding door and I panic'd. I looked out the slider and didn't see anything, but then I was cared to death to approach my front door for fear there would be flames outside it. Thankfully there wasn't and I wasn't able to locate the source of the smoke smell even after walking around outside. Regardless, I was completely freaked out and even more determined to find a home quickly.

In other news, the weather here is gorgeous, sunny, in the 80's. I have been putting off starting my seeds for a garden in hopes I would be moving soon. However, it was just too warm today to put it off any longer so I planted seeds for flowers, rosemary, basil, roma tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes, chili peppers and a hot pepper. I truely hope I will be moving into a house before the seedlings need to be transplanted.

Archangel · 03-30-2007, 05:12 PM

Sorry havn't been around Sister Devlin, please know you are in my thoughts and Prayers though!!! I hope it all works out for you my Friend!!!
