  Ugh. Who knew that purchasing a house took so much money?? $6,000 for a downpayment, $3,000 for closing costs, $500 for building & sewage inspection, $900 for homeowner's insurance, $1,000 for Earnest... And that's not even counting all the utilities, appliances, and furniture we're going to have to purchase. And then all the updates that'll have to happen over the next year... *cries* And my credit cards, car payment, insurance... ;_; It wouldn't be so bad if my BuWang was actually employed full-time over the past couple of years, but with the current economic conditions *sigh* It took us three years to find a job after we moved up here.
Evil-evil economy.
Ugh.
We can't get a kitty now until we establish ourselves in our home--which I guess isn't a bad thing, but I'm really going to be pining for a kitten. At least I have my fuzzies (aka Ferrets) to cuddle with--so long as they remember to use the litter box. ::shoots dagger-eyes at Ted:: Yesterday I went through all the boxes stored in my sister-in-law's basement. Or rather, all MY boxes stored in my sister-in-law's basement--I didn't go through her boxes. I threw a buncha crap into the donate pile which needs to go to Goodwill. My husband will be so proud. Also consolidated my pony boxes into three tupperwares and a few miscellaneous boxes. Need to trek some of the boxes back down to Ohio and stash them in my Mom's basement. Hopefully they'll be okay there if I store them in the top of the closet.
>.> *crosses fingers* While I'm down there (I'm going down this weekend to throw my sister a baby shower n.n) I'll have to load up on stored wedding presents. I'm sure Mom'll be happy to at LEAST get a part of her room back. :ha-ha:
