Preapproval

Met with an attractive mortgage guy today. Can't believe we're actually starting the preapproval process. So very exciting! Tomorrow I should find out my numbers and then I'll call my real estate agent to start talking about a condo I saw. ~fingers crossed~

Bah!

The apartment doesn't allow pets. I suspected this from talking to a different landlord in the same condo building, but then this guy had me thinking that maybe I misunderstood the first guy... Doesn't matter. No place to live but home for now.

Feel Like I'm Ready

I feel like I am so beyond ready. Ready to move out, lose weight, take better care of myself, get a permanent job, etc. I think I've had a decent September - 4 days worth of subbing scheduled so far, lost more than I've gained, inquired about an apartment (just have to make sure I can bring my cat and maybe bring the rent down just a tad?). Buying a house is going to have to wait - I just don't feel comfortable about it unless it's absolutely perfect and I have a permanent full-time job to take care of it. My mom shouldn't have to get it for me.

My class is going alright, except that I'm having a hard time making myself keep up with readings (as in I really haven't done any reading). I think the group assignment will go a little better this time around - so glad my prof wants a work plan by Monday so that we all have to have some input right away. From the little contact I've had I think there are at least a couple members that I will try to keep as long term contacts.

Sold My Car

After 10 and a half years the time has come for James and I to separate. I sold him. I am experiencing a great mix of nostalgia and relief. Mom got a new vehicle so I get her old one and that's a definite upgrade over mine. Farewell dear car - I will and won't miss you.

I Don't Know What's Happening

Well the rental place never got back to me so I haven't moved out and I can't help out my friend. Too bad. I guess this is just God's way of telling me to stay put for another day. I have a ton of books to read, but I just don't feel like reading right now. I do have good news: I passed my summer class! Yay!
