I’m sitting in my room after waking up for a serious migraine that came from no where last night. It hit as I have been going through some of the blogs that I read and keep up with a weekly basis that I don’t read enough. Reading is always something that has appeared [...]

So I learned on Friday during the horrible Football game that many of you were not aware that the offer on the house was accepted. I am set to close on the house on December 8th. So far everything is on track for a smooth closing. I’ll post pics of the place [...]
