A New Adventure..

Recently an opportunity has risen that I'm very excited about. I'm crossing my fingers that everything works out! Here's the gist..

Basically, Boo's grandfather is in transition and on a waiting list for a nursing home. He had the idea that we could buy his house and live with him until he actually got into the home, so that he'd be able to live in his own home as long as possible. We are so interested in buying his house! It would be so perfect for so many reasons!

To name a few, much larger, much more land, not attached to another house, not in the city, safe neighborhood, relatively new.. it has a garage in the basement that boo could brew out of.. it has a garage for our cars! I really love it, it's a great house! I can totally see myself having babies there.. perfection!

The one and only semi-negative thing is.. we'd have to scale back our spending. It's affordable if we make it affordable and darn-it do we want to make it affordable.. I'd give up going out to eat for a couple years in order to have a home that I truly love. Or maybe if I get some sort of raise or a new job that pays more.. we'll be able to continue our kick arse lives!

In the mean time, we're starting to ready our current house for sale.. there's plenty to do but hope to have it on the market by Mid-September. We're selling it ourselves with the help of a RE lawyer and I'll be offering the buyers agent commission to get them motivated in showing their clients. Hopefully it sells relatively quickly. The one iffy part is price.. there's a house down the street that is much smaller selling for too much, so i'm going to match their price hoping that people see a larger house down the street for the same price and think they're getting a deal. We'll see how that works out. We have some breathing room if needed..

Though nothing has been finalized yet, this is just half-dreaming right now in hopes it will become reality. Very exciting adventure we're about to travel!
