Up to date!!!

I got my aerogarden blog up to date. I've been writing everything down on paper and finally put in the effort to post it all. I hope it appeals to some of you! :0P


I've been playing LOTS of Halo since my PC has been down. Had some good games and some bad. All and all, it's been really fun actually! I'm still saving for a house with my girlfriend. I think we lowered our standards a bit. :0P You can't always get what you deserve. 

I'm still waiting on my raise at my job to kick in as well.. :0( It takes effect next month and also my incentive doubles, which I'm looking forward to. I'm finally starting to make some real money in life. I don't make much, but it's starting to add up and feel good.

I'll be back with more Trance! :0)

First time home buyer assistance sux! I am too rich to own a home!

Apparently you have to be dirt poor to get any help from the city or county. Former president Bush being the great man that he is, got rid of all the down payment assistance grants that non-profit organizations offered to people. Yay! Now look at the housing market. It SUCKS. You take away money from people, then people stop buying stuff.

Apparently I am too "rich" to qualify for any help from the city. I am just PULLING in the money. Seriosuly. That's why I own like three or four houses, right? I don't even own one. My car is all fucked up too. I barely have any money put aside and I only have that money there because of personal reasons. Now I'm struggling to save.

Gas doesn't get cheaper.... my gf and I don't go out much... we just hang out and play on the computer. We look at homes, but we just make too much money to own one. I really want to buy a house and get married, but........... no money... heh. The little that I have just isn't cutting it. I don't even buy games anymore... :0/ I don't play my xbox... I just play on the computer and try not to drive anywhere. That's the life of a rich man apparently!

Approved housing program means I will be buying a house soon!!!

Now here in Houston if you buy a house that's $135000 or cheaper, the city will help you as long as you don't make $75000 a year or $150000 combined income a year. Now if you plan on buying a house, but don't know if you should... then I would suggest that you do and do it before December 1, 2009!!! The government will give you $8000 back next year or 10% whichever is least. I think this is a great incentive to buy a home. You could get a cheap foreclosed home and have it paid off in no time!!!

Now my girlfriend and I are undecided on whether or not we should buy a home that's cheaper than $135000 or if we should get something that's $160ish that may be bigger.... don't know. Smartest thing to do here would probably be to go with a home that's $135000 or less and just deal with it! We will get assistance from the city and then the $8000 from the government!

So in my eyes the incentive to buy is definitely going to encourage me to buy a home! His stimulus in the housing area has worked for me! Hah.

I don't even know where to start!!!!
