Job search...

I just applied to a job in the company I work for yesterday. I wasn't really job hunting but I saw a job that I had been interested in for awhile so I applied for it. It would be awesome if I got it. It's a remote job so I can work from home and it will be more pay. It would be weird if I did get it because I would have to quit my job that I have been doing for the last 7 years but it seems like I should be looking to move to the next thing since it has been that long. I was not planning on doing any job hunting until after I graduated but the way things are looking, I do not know when that will ever happen. I always go by the saying what is for me, will be for me so if this job is for me, I will get it.

House hunting is hard...

 I have been house hunting for over a year and still have not found anything. It's crazy how hard it is to find a house. I am just looking for something that is move in ready and does not need any work done. Something in a decent neighborhood. I think the one thing that is slowing down the process is that I need a house in a specific area because of where my kids go to school and the houses are all over my budget. Even the small houses with not a lot of square footage is overpriced. I hate the housing market! I wish the prices would go down so that the houses can be more affordable. I need to find something because since I am not living in the district that my kids go to school at, they can not use the transportation and they are getting to the point of needing the transportation. It sucks to have to go through this. I know when the right place comes along it will be for me but this process is so slow and long, I just never know if I will ever find what I am looking for. If I could find something before school starts that would be great but I do not see that happening since school starts in less than 2 months and it has been over a year of hunting. I feel like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place because all the houses I am interested in are over my budget and the condos that are in my price range I can not get because of how much the HOA fees are. This is definitely a frustrating process that makes me feel like quitting but I still trying to hold on to hope that something will  come along because I am ready to get out of my apartment.
