So we locked in our mortgage rate at the same time keeping fingers crossed that rates do go up and not down, to reassure we made the right decision. We dropped off the fixtures at the house last weekend, and saw the new stone floors (pics posted soon) in the bathrooms. The trims are almost all done and we have garage doors! The front stairs also have the railing installed. We picked out paint colors thanks to bossycolorblog! It was so helpful. Once we get colors painted, I'll post pictures of those as well.
Job wise I have had 2 demo lessons at a middle school, a phone interview at a university, another upcoming demo lesson and an interview, I'm hoping to have a bidding war and I get tons and tons of money! (a girl's gotta dream!) Hopefully by the end of the month I will have the job thing settled. That would definitely alleviate one of the unknowns. If not, I have to save my pennies so I can commute and pay tolls to work. I am not looking forward to 1.5 hours each way (minimum). grrr. The job market is rough lately for educators (and everyone else)! I went to the Fairfield Educators Fair (job fair in CT) and there were over 1000 people looking for maybe 50 jobs. It was eye-opening and intimidating! You really felt like a needle in a haystack wanting to cry out- "Look at me!!"
