Still very anxious about the whole house buying thingy. Hoping the appraisal comes in where I need it and that the financing doesn't fall through. No one else (the banker or the realtors) seem worried, but that doesn't keep me from being so.

I was exactly the same right as my house stuff was closing - there are a lot of moving pieces, and a lot of hopes attached to them. If your realtor and banker seem pretty solid and unruffled, then there's every good chance that they know things will sort out well :D - Jennifer D. - -

The site is great, clearly based on FF. It is just a bit worrisome that there is only a single point of failure. - friarw - -

Nature’s first green is gold -- Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.

2 not so light shovelings of snow have been done. I anticipate at least one more, maybe 2. Also podiatrist appointment in 30 minutes. My second of the year. This is one of the signs that you are getting old.

10 years ago from Friendfeed - Comment - Hide - - -

4 shovelings for today. My podiatrist said that if the corns between the two smallest toes keep redeveloping I may need to have surgery to remove a piece of bone from each of the offending toes. It took six months for them reappear this time. We will see how long it goes before they reappear again. - friarw - -

I finally have a signed "Agreement of Sale" for the house on Plum Street. Tomorrow afternoon I am off to the bank to decide upon a mortgage. Wish me luck, especially around 2 pm EST.

Everything seemed to go well. Loan has been initially approved. It now has to go to the inner sanctums of the bank for final approval. I wish I could get over my nervousness and anxiety. - friarw - -

I made an offer last night on the house on Plum Street. A counter offer was made, to which I countered as well. Tomorrow I will sign the contract. Now to make the numbers work. In case you haven't seen it, this is the house: http://www.zillow.com/homedet...

Can someone set me up a excel spreadsheet that I can use with the following columns I can sort: Location, Price, Taxes, Est. Mortgage, Gas Heat, Central Air, Garage, Off Street Parking, 4 Bedrooms, Move In Ready, Fenced Yard Everything including Gas Heat on would be "Yes" or "No" answers. You guys/gals are my only hope. I am excel ignorant.

There was a rooster in my Ma Nellie's Coop that hated me and attacked me every time I visited until one day we had aforementioned rooster for dinner. My grandmother literally wrung his neck in front of me. :^) (This is in response to: http://friendfeed.com/helenin... )

Before going any further on my house search, I am waiting to hear if I qualify for a first-time home buyers program. I might hear about this by the end of the week. I also may need to wait till the beginning of March when I find out if the measures I have taken to raise my credit score have had any effect.

I need to raise them about 20 points to qualify for some good stuff when it comes to PHFA financing (Pennsylvania Housing . . . ) - friarw - -
