House soon...and some other random thoughts

Some random information in the first bulletin and in the other two just some random thoughts I have had the past couple days.

  • Brian got a call from the loan person yesterday and Brian pretty much has the loan, except for the appraisal of the house. He is going to set that up and then we should be able to move into the house soon.
  • We have been married for a little over a month! It's been great so far, but I'm ready to have a house that we can call ours. I just realized something too...I don't think we even celebrated our one month of being married. We took my parents out to dinner for their anniversary and my dad's birthday, but we didn't celebrate our one month. I'm not even sure that we said anything about it. Oh well...random though I had and wanted to get out there.
  • Another random thought: I want to start loosing weight again. I was a slacker and didn't loose weight for the wedding like I had hoped to, so I'm going to start now. I want to start working out and eating a little healthier than I have been. Really Brian and I both want to be healthier, so what better way than to work out together?

Enough of my randomness...I have to get ready for work anyway.

Patience is a Virtue...

I am slowly running out of patience. We were supposed to close on our house before the end of this month...but it's looking as though we will have to wait because of the stupid bank loan. Brian has wonderful credit...mine isn't as good...so after much talking (all done before we got married) Brian applied for the loan on his own. Great! Only problem is that he didn't work January-May because he was on rotations...and of course the loan person is looking at his year to date pay, which isn't what it should be. On top of that the loan person is looking at the substantial amount of debt Brian has because of Pharmacy school. Brian has had to play a lot of phone tag and send a butt load of paperwork via fax to the loan person and the loan person is being a total !*@# (insert explicative here) about everything. I have been so excited about the house and getting to be in it by the end of this month, but it isn't going to happen. It could be another couple weeks or more before we are able to close on the house.

On a happier note about the house...it's almost finished! Really the only thing left is the shelving in the closets (which Brian's dad is putting in) and carpet. Now I just have to try and be patient as the bank gets in gear and lets us have the money so we can close on the house. Me patient?? Yeah right...

I'm learning

As I play more and more with Blogger I am learning more! I was looking at some other blogs and discovered that some have music and extra pictures and more. So I started looking around and figured it out on my own. I just had to share my discovery. :)

House Update...again

Brian and I went by the house with my parents today and they have done a lot more! The dishwasher and microwave are out of the boxes and in their respective places in the kitchen. The stove is out of the box, but is sitting in the dining room. The light fixtures are all in their respective places...even the outside lights are on. Really the only things left now are a few more electrical outlets (ie: phone and cable outlets) need to be finished, sinks and toilets need to be put in, and carpet!! Then of course electricity and water need to be turned on. I am so excited!! We are so close to having a house! I can't wait to finally move in!!

House Update

The hosue is getting closer and closer to being finished! Brian and I went to look at it and it has been painted, the doors are on, the fixtures are almost all on, the counters are up, and the appliances were there waiting to be put in! I'm very ready for the house to be done. I can't wait to have a place we can call ours. I may try and update with pictures after I get home from work.

Wedding pictures!!

Our wedding pictures are up!!!! Just two short weeks after our special day, the photographer put the pictures up on her website!! They are all amazing and it will be difficult to choose which pictures we would like to put in our wedding album. The nice thing is that we are going to get a high resolution CD as well, so we will have ALL of our wedding pictures and the copyright for them. Our photographer did an amazing job! I'm so glad we chose her to be our photographer!

We're home!!

We are finally home...and happy to be here. We had a great time on our honeymoon, but we were ready to get home. Now that we're home, I have a lot of stuff to do. I have to figure out if our marriage license was sent in because I need to get a couple certified copies so I can start on my name change stuff. I also have to change my name on my credit cards and bills and all that. I'm hoping to get all of that taken care of this week, but we'll see if I do or not.
