New job, new home.

We flew back to St. Louis last weekend to meet with a few people at work about jobs and to look for a house. Timing seems to be everything, a position came up the morning I was in at work looking for a job and it seems like a good match. They’ve already made me an offer I accepted, so I’m happy.

House hunting was a bit more difficult. On the first day, we didn’t find any houses we really wanted to buy. 1 had potential but the neighborhood had us worried. It was scary to not see anything in our price range after 10 houses. Second day went better, found a few nice houses (and many scary ones) but only one had most everything we wanted and was located in a nice area. So we put a contract in and things are rolling along. Home inspection is scheduled for later this week, that should be the last real hurdle and I don’t think it’ll be bad. Unfortunately, it seems they pulled the MLS listing as soon as we put the contract in and I never got a chance to download the realtor’s photos of the house before it was removed from the web. Oh well, I’ll post photos when we move.

So we’re definitely moving back to St. Louis and I can’t wait. Mica will be happy to be back closer to her family. We’ll both be glad to be back around all of our friends. I plan on getting back into the karate club as well, another thing I’m really looking forward to. It’ll be nice.
