Today was a much better day at work than yesterday, thankfully. I got lots of work done (which always makes me feel better---there isn't anything worse than having spent eight hours doing something only to realize that you really don't know what you did all day. ) So things are pretty much back to what passes for an even keel there. Whew.
And after work, DH and I went house hunting. And we found two houses we would be perfectly happy in. I'm pretty sure we're going to put an offer in on both of them (no, we're not rich, but most of the houses here are short sales, so putting two offers in really means we might get one of them. Maybe.)
It's a nice feeling being able to put roots down somewhere. In a (more) perfect world, we would have brought the wee one home from the hospital to a home, not an apartment, but as the Vulcans of "Star Trek" say, Kaadith. What is, is. (Yes, I'm at one with my geekness. Why do you ask? :)) So, what we hope for now is to find a house we can afford, with a yard for my husband's garden and the tree we're going to plant for our daughter (and whoever comes after her.)
In short, the normal things people want for their families. I just hope our house of cards that's gotten us this far in the process stays up and sturdy. :)

It's bad karma, to say nothing of being really, really rude.
