A slight (big) change of plans

A little bit of small news has changed our plans.

I found out this morning that I won’t have clinicals during my first semester of nursing so I will only have to go to Hopkinsville’s campus two days a week. As oppose to my husband who has to do to Murray’s campus 5 days a week. In light of that knowledge we have decided to stay here until Neil graduates in December and then move to Clarksville. It only makes sense because I was going to be commuting only 30 minutes while Neil was going to be commuting a little over an hour. This way when we move for the spring semester only I will be commuting. Hello, money saving!

This will also give us plenty of time to find a home while we’re still saving money from our free rent here. Going from free rent to a mortgage of $800+ is going to be tough but this extra time will help a lot. A lot.

True, I will have to drive an hour and a half two times a day, two days a week but I like to drive. Really I do. So it’s not a big deal. At least I don’t think it will be.

Anyhoo, sorry if I got everyone excited about my house hunt. It will still be going on, just at a slower pace.

    I think this option is better! You’ll have time to look instead of just settling on a house. Two days a week won’t be too bad either … And saving money is always a plus!

    So this is the entry I missed! I just got so excited about the giveaway! And I’ll admit, I’m glad you’re still going to be in the area for a while :)
