The Big “D” seems to appreciate my quotes, and I’m full of ’em, so here’s another:

“Criticism is the death gargle of a non-achiever.”

Your thoughts?

The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they while their companions slept were toiling upward in the night.

Well, the day has come that we have decided to start thinking about buying a house again. Before we got married we were in the hunt and we actually found a house that we both really loved. Unfortunately, Andy lost his job and we were forced to begin apartment hunting. (looking at 3 bedroom homes makes looking at one bedroom apartments very depressing)

We are back on track now that Andy has a decent job, so I’ve been looking around our area for homes that are inexpensive yet charming. I’ve accumulated printouts for about 7 different houses and they all seem pretty appealing on paper. Walking through them really gives a better perspective. We learned that last time around. (Be sure to ask me about the biker/easter bunny house that sounded “great on paper.”)

My uncle is a well established realtor, so I’ll probably be contacting him in the near future to get the ball rolling. I’m excited, but nervous at the same time!
