so, i know ive neglected. but here it is. we finally came to an arrangement on the house, and we accepted an offer. we've had the inspection done and are working on what problems the seller is willing to fix and go from there. *sigh ( Read more... )

kyle and i put an offer in on a house today. kinda small little thing that definitely needs some upgrades to suit our snobby tastes. but it's a first home, let's make some memories.

we're very sure they wont take our offer, because it's more than 10 thousand below what theyre asking, but .... we're sure something will get worked out.

i hurt. and i am tired of hurting.

fix it, you. that does mean you.

Ok, so Kyle wound up quitting Ranger School.. then they talked him into not quitting and just recycling himself. And after about 4 days of being the Army's slave to dig ditches and clean whatever needed to be cleaned, he said "I don't care this much" and quit again. haha He'll be home this upcoming Thursday. Yes, he quit on Thur or Fri of last week ( Read more... )

Our furniture FINALLY arrived, after being in transit for a month. DANG, but they loaders were really nice and it was a pleasant experience. Although there are tons of boxes still around the apartment... I am very happy to have everything *here.*

Now it's time to relax, because I hit the road AGAIN tomorrow... UGH

Well informed people know it is impossible to transmit the voice over wires and that were it possible to do so, the thing would be of no practical value.

It's a good thing there are a bunch of uninformed people out there.

i get to see kyle this upcoming weekend. im so excited :-D and i managed to get him on the phone this past saturday... or maybe he managed to get on a phone, period. he's been buffeting his body pretty well in ranger school. but we hope it all turns out well... and as quickly as humanly possible.
