Contract on House!

This past Monday, around 7:30pm, Melody called us with an offer on the house. After a few negotiations, the contract was official Wednesday, October 25th. I met the people buying our house today and they seem really nice. They signed their portion and then I took the contract to Grapevine and Jeff and I signed our portion. It is now back to our realtors. Early next week, the inspection should be completed. The current closing date on the contract is on December 1st. I would prefer to have it end of November to save some and help us have more money to put down on an apartment. Jeff and I are planning to look at apartments in Lewisville this weekend! Depending how quickly everything goes through, we could be moving really soon!

Oh, and as a tidbit, our house was placed on market 9/14/06 and official contract was on 10/25/06.

Latest book read

Well, I finished reading Hitched by Carol Higgins Clark. It was interesting, but I thought it was a little hard to get into. The story line had many characters that intertwined to make a good story, but was hard to keep up with the characters especially in the beginning.

I started reading 2nd Chance by James Patterson today and it is already starting off with a bang! I love books which start from the get go with the action! Makes a much more exciting read!

I also picked up three books from Barnes and Noble the other day from their bargin area. Three hard back books for $9.99! What a deal! They are all authors I have not read yet, but story lines sounded good!

Tau Sigma National Honor Society

I received a letter in the mail yesterday from UNT stating I was selected as a candidate for membership into Tau Sigma National Honor Society! It is a national academic honor society to recognize and promote the academic excellence and involvement of transfer students. Since I transfered to UNT, the letter said I either had a 3.5 GPA or was placed in the top 20% of all incoming transfer students during my first term at UNT. There is a special ceremony on Thursday, November 16th at 7pm at the college. I told my mom about it and she's already planning on coming to it with me! How neat! I figured it would be a great thing to add to my resume later!
