OK….to explain my last two posts. I have a tendency to make up the words to a song. A few of my friends have mentioned it, but most people don’t really notice….I know my man knows, because he often turns on the songs I don’t know and waits for me to start singing…then just laughs. SO basically I’m a goof. Then we found these videos and OMG it made me laugh sooo hard, cause its exactly what I think the words are! I’d like to note, that I really do like Fall Out Boy (so this is not me making fun of them), and have nothing against EMO. These just made me laugh, so I really wanted to share them!
Why is life always one step forward, two steps back?? I just want to know that!!
In other news….It’s been a horrible year so far! My first week of January was spent with some weird Virus, I was puking anything and everything I had in me. That really only lasted the one day with nausea on the second day, but you know how one day of that kind of stomach retching can lead to a few long days of still not feeling 100%. Then the second week in to 2007, I started to get some cold/flu. I had the worst sinus congestion. Not the sniffles, more just the heavy, pressure and headache in my face. But thankfully it didn’t lead to anything. Mind you in between those two weeks I had a good weekend. I went to a bridal show with my girls. And I had my brother and his GF over to hang out the one night, with my man and I. So that was fun, but then Sunday it was back to the suck!
Now today, its Saturday. And I’ve started off my day with a horrible headache. I’m also sore from my workout on Thursday. It was a beginners Pilates class…I didn’t even break a sweat. And my stomach and shoulders are sooo sore! Lol…who knew. And this class is only going to get harder. Good thing I’m doing it with my mom, because I really cant skip it. If it was just me I’d be lazy and play tired or some other excuse. I need major motivation to get out and do things apparently!
The house hunt hasn’t been bad. We have narrowed it down to one area at least. And I found a really cute place, but then I talked to someone at work and she told me how because it’s a certain style townhouse, and it was built more narrow, a lot of people had issues getting larger furniture up to the second level. And we have a HUGE bed and very large dresser…so that’s not good for us. We’re already going to have a tough time getting out of our current place, I don’t want to be having a hard time getting into a new place. But there are tons of areas in this town with gorgeous places….so we’re still looking!
Ok…I’ve got to get ready to go out now…SO I will bid you adieu….
BUT I will be back! Because I have a HILARIOUS clip to share with you all….So check back for that!
OK…really not that much is new except on the living arrangements front.
We’re more or less house hunting now. It’s a little different, I didn’t think we’d be doing this for a while, but I guess with getting married in May we should get a move on. We have a few options. So far we haven’t applied for any sort of mortgage, but we have our 10% down payment and want to have something to move in for when we’re married.
We have the two obvious options….
We could build. We could buy a property just out in the country near where we currently live, for a decent amount, and build! Which being in the architectural industry, is something that I’d RATHER do. But that takes more time, there is buying the land, surveys, resurfacing….excavating…etc etc. Then there is the building, that would take another couple months. BUT BUT BUT, with me being in the industry and my man being an electrician we could cut some costs in half. Plus we have family and friend that are in construction or have a trade that they can do, so that cuts some labour costs. So we could SAVE money….Considering our current job locations and the house costs to buy building is our BEST option!
But then again, I’d rather build the house of my dreams than build a house we can just afford right now. In my opinion why not go all the way, we're just going to be moving in a couple years anyways.... So our second option is to buy…BUT where? I work in Mississauga. I don’t want to live in Mississauga and its too $$$. SO we have Brampton, but BLECK, crummy housing or asking TOO much for TOO little. SO there is Orangeville, kinda far, but cleaner and quieter. Or Georgetown…again, farther but cleaner and MUCH nicer. Or Oakville….too $$$… Or Milton…too far? Or Hamilton/Burlington?…is that too far? I don’t think its too far, but its RIGHT where all that rush hour traffic goes…..EKKK GAD, we need help!
Any suggestions, or any commuters that want to give me a heads up on a good town or place within decent driving range of Mississauga??? I don’t mind an hour drive, BUT I don’t want an hour drive from one shitty city to another shitty city! Lol…I know I’m rude! Please help! So now you see, this might be what consumes my life for the next few months…oh that and wedding planning…lol
This weekend my girls and I are going to a wedding show, which should be a blast. Since it’s the first time my MOH meets the other new girl in the party. She’s really wicked though, so I know they will all get along!!
Anyways…hope everyone had a wicked new years and a merry Christmas!
