La Le Updatee.

OHHH HI

In my last post, I was super excited to grow my terrarium. WELL let me tell you something.
The seeds grew... and they grew some more. BUT.

:(

Alas, they cease to exist.
They grew to about 1 inch and then it got too wet inside, some of the plants became brown, and a little mold grew, so naturally I took the top off. I don't know what it was, but apparently that didn't help because everything DIED!! D=

Except for one of course.
But then it died too.


SO.


Lets talk about growing up and what it takes to be a fully developed, well-rounded, societal-adjusted woman. Currently where I live, the way of it all is to get married, buy a house and have babies.
So far so good I have successfully avoided any pregnancies. And like previous posts, this engagement thing is happening.
So about the wedding... It's been a slow-go and very unorganized path, but I figured out some goodies. YAY!
I think I will have a Mediterranean spread for a late lunch. My uncles confirmed we can have our wedding in their backyard (SO THANKFUL!!) and I am allowing my mother to buy my dress because that's what's going to make her happy. Kyle (my fiancé) and I wanted the option of having the wedding in our own backyard of our own house. SO the house hunt continues.

Trying to find a house with what we want, priced around 100Gs is pretty exhausting. Everything is compromisable. But as noted, the plan is to produce mini - us's and do the whole shebang.
Here is our requirements:
Large yard (for my children and I to frolic in and plant gardens and maybe have chickies!)
3 Bed 1.5+ Bath (for us and the babies)
Garage (Kyle insists even though I think we can always build one if we need to)
Basement (because its un-taxed usable space)
Out of the place I call the "ghetto creep" AKA good neighborhood projected 20+ years (kids)
Good school district (kids again)

Not so bad, right? WRONG.
We have definitely found these houses, but the list continues with broken windows, heating systems from the 40's, tube and wire electrical systems, broken foundations, septic tanks, asbestos, lead paint, and duct cleaning from gobs and gobs of pet hair. Oh and auction houses... those are fun. Along with homepath homes and bank-owned.

...I just might lose my shit this year. I am hoping this year doesn't kill me between wedding stuff and a house. Nobody really tells you this all happens at the same time. I mean, unless you want to get married and live in your parents houses... Come on?
Come. The F. On.

And then we all know that once you get a house the kids just start going.
