Things are finally moving for us. Our house is officially on the market and ready for any offers. (hint hint - anyone moving to Midland, Texas?) Unfortunately, it is the holiday season and not really house shopping season. We hope that we will still get a few bites and maybe even an offer on the house before Christmas. We hope.
We leave on Monday (8th of December) to go to Houston for a week to do our house shopping. We have decided to look a little more in the downtown area. It would be great if we found a perfect house for us near Kyle’s office so that he doesn’t have a long commute every day. BUT, we know that may not happen. In that case, we are heading out to the suburb of Humble, Texas. It is about northeast-ish of downtown Houston. We really like the neighborhoods up in that area, and there is a park-and-ride to downtown in that area. (We park the car in a lot and then ride a bus to downtown.) So, we would have a 5 - 10 minute drive to the park-and-ride lot and then about another 30 minutes on the bus. Not a short commute like Midland, but at least we wouldn’t have to drive it all the way! I’m just stressed about finding our new house in a week. It will be a very very busy week for us.

We made a list of criteria and ‘graded’ houses. It kept us more focused that way. Good luck! As you know we just bought so there are people out there buying! Thinking of you!
