Houses, cars, floods and babies
Things have so much the same and so different since the last time I wrote anything in here, my life is pretty much the same as always, sometimes it feels pretty much like a routine, but I am happy with it.
The only thing right now that is different is that R and I are looking into buying our first home, this is a huge step for us right now and we are taking the first baby steps in making sure that we can get a loan approved for the payment of our mortgage and also that the loan is of a sum big enough for us to consolidate our other loans and have only one payment, low enough for us to be able to pay it. That is the tough part of it all. The positive of all of this is that even if we are paying for the house for the next 30 years, we will still be pretty young when we finish paying if off and we will be paying for something that is completely ours. The house is very beautiful and has never been lived in before. It has something around 1,000 meters of land around it; it has a big beautiful living room, kitchen, dining room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms and enough closet space to hide and army in. R and I have already started discussing colors for the paint and the cabinets, because no matter what happens we will be living in the house, because if we don’t get the loan my parents are planning on buying the house and we will be renting it with an option to buy when we pay off our loans. Seems like such a sweet deal, I am praying that everything goes well. Keep your fingers crossed people.
On the downside to things, my car was making a horrible noise the past week so we took it into the mechanics on Thursday, when he heard it he said he thought it was something simple, so I was wishing on a $100 dollar or less repair, turns out it has something to do with the motor, so I will be dishing our or let me rephrase that I will be loaning $500 dollars to get that fixed, and to make things better (insert sarcasm here) when I got home on Friday night I was received with the flooding of my apartment and my bedroom set completely ruined. I am still able to use it now, but once we try to move that sucker out of the bedroom, it is going to fall to pieces.
All in all, had this happened a couple of months ago, I would have bitched and cried and yelled about it, now I just take it a day at a time, at least my bills are paid on time and I have a roof to live under and food to keep my tummy happy.
To get me in a bigger state of nervousness I am a couple days late on my period, and even though we all know that is nothing uncommon for me, I have no idea when to stop believing it is something normal and run to the pharmacy to get a pregnancy test.
