Buying a House

Why does it have to be so hard? They said this was a buyers market. I don't believe that, not after 5 months. I have given up. I am tired of all the crap the banks pull. They are in it for money but when you want to give them your money they act like fools.
I can't even find a house to rent. I need to get out of this apartment. It was supposed to be a one month thing and now we have been here 3 months going on 4.
I wish I had known when I was 16 that credit cards are bad, and not to take out student loans. We don't have much credit card debt maybe $800 at most. But when we first got married times were rough and that's how we survived. Now it's biting us in the butt. And don't get me started on student loans. Oh how i wish we had free education in the States. And look where going to a private school got me. A stay at home mom that has never finished her degree and is living in an apartment. When are we going to grow up and be able to settle down?

Packing

Nick and Bailey are going to Sonora for a few days with Bailey's 6th grade class. We have been packing their stuff for two days now. Bailey was done earlier today and now we are dealing with Nick's stuff. Of course he waited until the last minute but I don't think I've ever seen him do anything but :)

Basketball

I bet you didn't think you'd ever see a post titled that :) Bailey is now playing basketball at her school.  She had a tournament today.  It has been a very long time since I had to watch kids play that don't really know how.  Her team lost all 4 games but she got better as the day went on.  There were some pretty aggressive girls and parents there.  I mean they still have 6 years to perfect their game if they plan on playing in college.  But this one girl and her mom were hecka crazy.  Hacking at the other girls, pushing and shoving and man was she a ball hog. And her mom was encouraging it.  But I guess she wants her daughter to be one of those players.  I on the other hand would rather Bailey learn how to be aggressive the right way.  Not trying to hurt the girls, just get the ball away and score :)
She played pretty well defensively.  Got rebounds and boxed out, they only play 1/2 court press so once she had control they had to back off.  She scored once.  Now she just needs to learn to dribble the ball.  Hopefully Nick will be able to work some drills with her if we can find a gym with courts open when they both are available.  

Making Babies

Started the meds last night.  It really wasn't that bad.  But these are the little needles.  So it will get worse.  All in the name of making babies (well we hope only one but will love two if it happens).

We have our calendar!

We are going to make L a big brother.  We finished our contract and sent it off to the clinic and now we are getting started.  Monday I so for an u/s and then I start injections.  And I get to continue those for the next 12 weeks :) We should transfer around Dec 16th so that means I will hopefully have a great BFP to give to L&G for Christmas.  

I just want to cry

Well this morning we got a call about the house.  Its not our house anymore.  The bank has decided not to do anymore repairs.  If they would have done them right the first time this wouldn't be happening.  It was their fault the water was turned off.  If it had been paid like it was supposed to then the pipe wouldn't have cracked when it was turned back on.  If they would have taken care of the water damage immediately, not 3 weeks later, then the subfloor might not have been ruined.  If they would have patched the roof when we told them, back in August, then the rain wouldn't have gotten in and made more of a mess in the ceiling.  But now to fix what could have been avoided is going to cost them $15K and they don't want to pay it.  So we are SOL.
I don't know what we are going to do.  But this has got to be the worst timing ever.
