All of the previous houses we bought were simple--look at some houses, make an offer, get the offer accepted. Our last house took 14 offers before it was accepted because the market was so hot. By the time offer 10 was declined I just left it up to the universe, made offers without worrying if it will be accepted, and we ended up getting the perfect house at a great price in a great location!Cash Only Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13658816214856647685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-67324190974483675652022-06-30T09:48:21.710-05:002022-06-30T09:48:21.710-05:00Sending positive thoughts to your daughter.

This is a very hard market for anyone looking for a house right now so I feel for her. <br />I've noticed here some of the outrageous prices are starting to slow down and a lot have had to lower the asking price.<br />Maybe it will be better for her soon.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10808093713899800649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-5544946886601609802022-06-30T09:00:29.750-05:002022-06-30T09:00:29.750-05:00Fingers crossed that the next house is hers!

We had a bunch of splurge meals over the weekend (mostly included as part of M's poker tournament), which made it easy to ensure we were sticking to at home meals for the rest of the week. We will probably go out one more time, as a last celebration, before the boys are back on Sunday.Hawaii Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760426766801381563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-46054914297601164082022-06-30T08:21:48.834-05:002022-06-30T08:21:48.834-05:00A guy I dated said we were going out to eat.

He said he was so far in debt, one more dinner was not going to break him as he was already broke. He was going to put it on a credit card! I resisted. In the end we ate out. The meal stuck in my throat, but he enjoyed his meal. His money habits broke him, but it was always my fault. I never understood his logic. When he got another credit card to pay the first card off, he blamed me for his predicament. No, not my fault at all.
