Google Voice

So today I decided I would try out Google Voice. It's pretty cool so far. You can give out your number to anyone and then you can edit which phone you want it to go to. For me that's not the cool part seeing as I only have a cell phone. But it is cool that you can designate if you want to have that contact go to voicemail, and customize what the voicemail says or have it come through. I've always struggled with this cause I want a funny voicemail for friends and family but I've had professionalism inculcated into my head by John Shurtleff, so I have to have a professional sounding voicemail in case someone calls me for business.

Anyway, If you want to call me up on Google Voice, send me a text or something and I'll give you my number. Oh that's pretty cool too...you can text with your Google voice number too!

I'm going to try a new post format of short quick but more often posts. Let me know if you like or if you just want big long posts every three or four months! :)

Good news, Bad news

So yesterday I got a call from my Real Estate agent and he said,

"I have good news and bad news. Good news is that the Bank approved you for a loan! Bad news is the Bank did not approve the house for a loan."

I guess the guy trying to sell the house does not own the house. How it got through so far without us knowing about this is weird. I guess the title has shifted hands a few times and it looks a like a fraud so the bank wont touch it with a ten foot pole.

So I lost $8,000 yesterday and am back on the hunt.

Good news is we might get $1000 in earnest money cause they have to back out of the contract!

Ok, I lost out on $8,000 due to missing the tax credit. It was never mine but it could have been...
