Crazy crazy crazy

So...I just made an offer on a house and it was accepted!!! HOLY CRAP...I can't believe I am almost a house owner. I had been reading on different websites about new home purchases, and one of the symptoms people feel is FEAR. So I thought, well, now that I know about it, it won't hit me...but BAM, Friday morning, I sort of freaked out at my desk at work. What am I thinking??? Can I afford this? What if interest rates spike and I lose my house!?!?

So my Mom called, and she calmed me down. Moms are great at that. Yup, I've got a week to figure out the mortgage, house inspection, etc...

Ha ha, if you're looking for a place to rent, call me!

Wow, that's a pretty big step Mary, but I'm sure everything will turn out fine.

OH MY GOD!!!!! I didn't even know you were looking at houses!!! Mary, you need to keep me in the loop! That's way super cool though, congrats! You're adultifying! Nooo!!! It's too soon! lol
(PS- Buyer's remorse happens to everyone, even for comparatively little things like buying a camera, but it'll pass! No worries!)

Whoa! You bought a house???!! That is CRAZY! I'm excited for you! Does that mean you're planning on moving out or become a Kingston like Landlord ;). Sounds like things are going well!

Thought I'd drop you a line!
