So... It has been too long to even try and apologize to you reader, yeah you, who ever you are, for the Loooong gap since my last post. Lets just say A Lot has changed and I am going to start fresh starting today.
Brief recap of our current situation:
Dennis and I said goodbye to our first apartment and Corona temporarily (I'll get to why in a minute). It was bitter sweet, but still sweet in it's own right. We had decided a while back to try and move closer to work. Closer to work meant somewhere in Orange county.... Well that means, MORE MONEY, literally double what we were paying in Corona! Money we really didn't want to spend. So after talking to his parents they offered to loan us money to help us buy a HOUSE! Let me emphasize LOAN. They have done so much for us it's hard to accept any more from them. They have the kindest hearts. Dennis and I are truly blessed to have the parents we have. We had talked a little about it in the past about buying a house but both thought that right now we didn't have the kind of money we would need so we just pushed the thought out of heads... After his parents offered to help us we realized that we really could afford a house we just needed the kick in our rear ends.They also offered to let us stay and save even more money.
So with that said we plan on buying in Corona, and hopefully soon!
We got lucky when we were looking for our first place together. Cheap rent super nice place. Done and done. Now, looking for a house is no joke. There are so many more things to consider, it's not about thinking short term like when your searching for an apartment, were in this place for the long haul. Our lives are consumed with online searches for homes, and weekends are spent looking at houses. We are making the best out of it and having a blast.
I just can't wait to set some roots and start a concrete life in a house, in OUR house. Hopefully soon after Marriage. Were quickly approaching our 9 year anniversary... Yes, you read that right 9 years. I wonder what Dennis has this year planned. I put the planning in his shoes this year. :)
Until we meet again...
