Can (almost) stop throwing money down the rat hole.
Just got the word today! After 39+years of life, working since I was 14, gainfully?? employed with a salary since I was 24, I can finally, finally, FINALLY stop throwing money at the landlord and throw it at the bank! The offer was accepted, and the backyard treehouse planning has begun.
Cross your fingers, y'all, and join me in hoping the escrow closes on time!! I can't wait to carry my bride of 17 years across the threshold of our own house, (did I say finally?)
WOOOOHOOOO!!

PS - This is why capitalism rocks!!! The American Dream LIVES ON!!
