As you can tell by a look at my homepage, it has been a while since my last post. By brother-in-law posted a link to the annual pumpkin contest in October, but my last real post before that was September. I’m sorry for the inactivity, but I do have some good excuses:
1. In early October, my wife gave birth to our third child. Since we already have two-year-old twins, this has made life much more hectic.
2. Around that same time, we signed a purchase contract on a house outside of Houston. Dealing with Realtors, mortgage companies, and the like is always a time consuming experience.
3. We closed on said house in mid-November and moved in before Thanksgiving. With three small children and a 4 bedroom house full of crap, this isn’t an easy task. In fact, we are still unpacking stuff a month later.
So there are the excuses. I will work on some new postings inspired by current trends in the financial world and our own experiences with purchasing our new home. Stay tuned!
