Today turned out to be a very good day for me.

First, I found out I got a raise. I had actually been waiting for it, since we were supposed to get raises in October, but my boss actually wasn't expecting them to be approved, since we may be bought out by the end of next week.

It's not much, only 3%, but that's still better than nothing, and it's nice to know that my work is appreciated.

After I got out of work, Dana and I went to see a house, and we both really believe this is the one. Not only is it much nicer than the one we had tried to buy previously, but there's nothing that needs to be done to it, it has a pool, the guy is asking for less money, and even the taxes are lower.

Dana's mom is going to see it with us on Thursday afternoon to give us a second opinion, but barring the place collapsing in the interim, I don't think she's going to find anything that would cause us to lose our interest.

Cross your fingers for us. ;)

This one is in Clifton like the previous one, so while I won't be in the neighboring town as you, I'm only one more over. :)

Well, we put in an offer and they accepted. No counter-offer, no haggling, just took what we offered.

Closing date is set for Dec. 20, so we may be moving right around Christmas.
