Veni, Vidi, Vici
The land has been conquered! Well, more bargained for. After a half a week of negotiating the sellers have decided to accept our final bid. We close in mid December and will have secured our little nest egg almost a year before schedule (my schedule, not Missy's). We'll have the rest of the time to figure out the minute details of the wedding, plan a financially responsible honeymoon, fix the house up and make it ours and determine what the hell we're going to do with all that space.
The house is almost 1600 square feet not including the attic which would bring that total up almost 1000 square feet. This is almost surreal. With all we've saved up, this radical venture we're undertaking won't be as hard on us as we first assumed. The major problem that will keep me up at nights is security. But we're in the process of improving our lives. Nevertheless, I will keep knocking on wood like an obsessive compulsive.
