Where I Be

I have had no motivation to blog lately. I guess it doesn't help that I was at the beach last week and adjusting back to real life after vacation is super hard. Seriously.

I wanna go back to the lazy morning breakfasts on the balcony looking over the ocean. Followed by an hour walk on the beach with my mommy. Then heading down to read, sleep and play on the beach all day, with a quick break to run up to the house for lunch.

The fact that we just got out of our third (yes, as in THREE) heatwave already this summer with another one starting on Sunday. A typical summer here is in the 80's during the day and 60's at night. Occasionally a day gets into the high 80's maybe 90, but of course there are always days in the 70's too. A heatwave is classified as 5 days in a row with temps in the 90's or higher. That means we've had at least 15 days in June...that's half the month! I love the heat, it's the humidity which kills me. That and being in A/C all day. I'd much rather let my body adjust to the heat instead of shocking it every time I walk in and out.

As for the house...we're still waiting. Story of my home buying life. Seriously people, you need to have a lot of patience to buy a house! We just found out today that the lien is all worked out, so we will pay that off at settlement and also that they did sign the extension of the $8,000 tax credit! Woohoo!!! We were worried that we might miss out on it, but thankfully the House pulled through. Now all we are waiting on is a letter from the bank saying that we have permission to close up the hole in the wall so the appraiser can sign off. The one good thing in all of this is that mortgage interest rate have dropped, so hopefully we'll be able to get an even better rate!

That's pretty much it for me. My anniversary and birthday are next week, and if we do head to settlement next week it's going to be absolutely craziness!
