GPS Broke, House Hunt, College Hunt
My GPS broke, so no more war driving here.
The serial to usb converter in the cable broke, and as ussual I didn’t bring a soldering iron.
Isn’t it odd that your stuff has to break always on trips when you don’t have tools with you?
Moving on, we found a we like. 5 bedroom, 4 bath [One bedroom is really a office]. It has CAT5e running through the house, and a finished basement. I may take the basement, since the house is on a hill and the back of the basement is exposed enough for a door and full windows [so it doesn't really feel like a basement].
Down there is enough room for my office and bedroom and general areas. I liked the layout of it. Expecially with all the services down in the basement. There’s also a full-house generator! [though it's really only hooked up to a few circuits.] Problem now is to find out how much our house is worth.
Next up, college. There’s not many colleges in the area where we are moving. Most of them are 60 miles or more away. Means I have to get a dorm [I don't want to] or see if I can arrange my scedule so I only have to go 3 days a week [not really wanting to drive for a hour every day.. really]. Plus it’s a little late to sign up for most of them.. which is a pretty big problem that we can’t do much about at the moment.
If all goes bad, I’ll ramp up and advertise my custom pc building service, see how much I can make at that and wait for next year. If that doesn’t go well, there’s a few tech shops around here I can see if I can get a job at.
I seriously don’t want to stay with my parents for too long, which is also why I’d like to get the entire basement of this next house, to feel a bit seperated from them I suppose.
That’s it.
