ESS is hitting me hard.....HELP!!!


Itchy palms.

Long hours on the computer.


Seeing sales everywhere.


30-60% OFF!!!!


Extra 15% OFF CLEARANCE!
FREE SHIPPING!!!

BONUS GIFT WITH PURCHASE!!!!!



In the past 5 days I have
almost purchased stuff online 7 times. 7 TIMES!!!! On each 'attempt' I got as far as the "place order" page. All 7 times I stared at the screen for about 15 minutes and started thinking about all the repercussions of that purchase. Then, mentally, I see the words, "DEBT AINT CUTE [INSERT REAL NAME HERE] ". I quickly hit the "cancel order" button and run my shopping addicted, going into withdrawal, itchy palms, jittery azz over to the cookie dough ice cream in the fridge.

The next two months are gonna be the craziest two months of my year. I gotta make it.

*sigh*

I gotta make a ice cream run. Someone ate the whole box of cookie dough I bought on Thursday.

Home Purchase Plan - How I faired

Back in January I developed my Home Purchase Plan (HPP for short). I listed exactly what I was looking for in my new home including my needs and wants. I printed up my HPP and carried it will me everywhere. I especially took it with me when I went house hunting with my agent. I had a momentary relapse (I'll explain more on that on another post) but got back on track and stuck to my guns. I ended up with a beautiful house that fits all my needs and wants. HOME PURCHASE PLAN The home I want: Price: $0 -> $190,000 $180,000 Ideal Monthly Mortgage (including taxes, PMI, HOA, & hazard) : $1200 (max $1300) $1310 Location: Surrounding Orlando Area Check Bedrooms: 3+ 4 Bathrooms: 2+ 2 Square footage: 1700 s.f. + 1810 sf Year Built: 2000+ 1998 HOA: $100/month max $150/yr NEEDS: * A-rated school district Check * Quick access to major highways Check * Good daycare Check * Nice

Yeah......

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Life has been extremely busy. Trying to get used to the extra responsibilities on top of my existing overflowing list. I will try my hardest to post my do's and don'ts of buying a house tonight. Hope all is well.
