singularity6 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 My wife and I just made an offer on a house. So far it's just been handshaking, but things are definitely in motion. Paperwork will be signed today!And boy, is it a house! Brick exterior~2200 sqftPlaster wallsHardwood floorsLOTS of storage; space is well usedPartially finished basement (room to train!)VERY well-maintainedMy only qualms are that I won't have enough space to swing my sword... so I can't easily get back into iaido. 5th Geup Jidokwan Tae Kwon Do/Hap Ki Do(Never officially tested in aikido, iaido or kendo)

MatsuShinshii Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 That is great news. Congrats! The person who succeeds is not the one who holds back, fearing failure, nor the one who never fails-but the one who moves on in spite of failure. Charles R. Swindoll

LLLEARNER Posted December 15, 2017 Posted December 15, 2017 Congrats on the new house. You could always swing your sword outside in the winter and call it conditioning. "Those who know don't talk.
