TV's, sofas, and lots of money

Today I got a text from Brittany that Rooms To Go had a sale if you buy a room you get a free 50" plasma HDTV. What? Seriously? To the internet I went. Well yes indeed this is true. So I showed Steve and waited for him to say "Are you kidding?" Then he didn't. He said Hmmmm. And he actually wanted to go look. Holy crap, did my husband get stolen and replaced with this imposter?
Off we went to the local Rooms To Go and looked at all the packages picked out the pieces we wanted, and then I thought "ok now he's going to pull the plug...game over...go home." But he didn't. We got it. All of it, sofa, chair, cocktail ottoman, end table, lamp, TV console and.....a 50" TV. I guess the world cup in HD was just too tempting!

House Hunting

The million dollar question: do we want a new house and do we want it now? I guess it depends on who you ask. Me? Yes, absolutely lets do this! Steve? Mmmmm, maybe, yes, eventually, etc.

The latest issue: do we spend more now, build and get everything we want? Or spend less up front, get something that needs remodeling, and spend the money over time to make it what we want?
I;m all about efficiency and being happy in my surroundings. So I say pay up front get what we want. How long will this process take? Only time will tell.
