snow snow snow

It's been over a week since my last post. by now most of you know that Lily has bought a house and the closing date is the end of this month. This really spurred us into action. This past weekend Bill and I went to look at some houses. Things went ok... we have come to the realization that as first time home buyers we won't be getting our dream home, but there was at least on house that we might want to see again.

One thing i don't like about looking for a home right now is the weather.... it was too cold for Bill and I to "try" walking to the station from the houses we were considering.... there was too much snow for us to see anything but a general shape of the back yard. anyway now it is snowing more which begs the question do we wait until spring to have more options and a better picture or do we buy a home now if we like it.... when looking at places you get that grass is always greener syndrome.

Anyway, the weather here has gotten warmer(20* woo hoo) but uglier... today we woke up to unplowed streets and 20 mph wind.... and that wind feels even stronger around the sears tower.

Things in my life are revolving around two main things.... buying a home, and trying to plan a wonderful vacation that we will need once the home purchase is complete. work, home, and life in general is taking a second wheel.
