My first home sweet home!

I signed on a house today!! This is by-far the biggest step I've ever taken on my own! Of course I'm not COMPLETELY on my own...but I'm going to signings, meetings and appointments by myself. Mom and Dad are here if I have personal questions, and my real estate agent and mortgage broker are here to make sure I don't fall flat on my face. Thank God for them!
When I tell people I have no furniture....I really don't even think I have SPOONS! Sure, I have my bedroom stuff, but that's one room in my whole house. MY house :) I love saying that! Now, I've got plenty of friends and family wanting to throw house-warmings and poundings....so I'm not too worried about it I guess. The good thing is I'm going to have money left over after my down payment and the little bit of my closing cost I have to pay. At least I won't be starting off with NOTHING.
I feel like such a grown-up! This is a big deal for me...and stressful....yet I know it's going to be worth it! God has definitely been apart of this process, of that I'm positive! These past 3 days have been a light work schedule, so I've had time to meet with people, sign what needs to be signed, etc. Yesterday mom found a Kenmore washer/dryer set at Rolling Hills thrift store for $50 each! Really?!?!?!? That doesn't just HAPPEN. Work has provided me with plenty of moving boxes, too. Everything has been falling together nicely so-far. Now, these next 30 days are gonna be long and probably stressful, but I've got a timeline from my agent being e-mailed to me today, so at least I'll have an idea of what needs to get done when. I'm so excited, nervous, scared, and blessed!!
