I won't go into the saga of the Adventures of Michael, Natania, and Liam Renting from Family in Chapel Hill. Really, I'll sound ungrateful. And I don't want to do that.

BUT HEY!

We bought a house! It's new and shiny, with all appliances conveying, and it's in lovely Hillsborough, NC. :)

Can't wait to get outta here.  

OUR OFFER GOT ACCEPTED!

...

Wait, kiddo. Back up a few steps here.

Right, so I haven't been very good at updating much. I've been working (yes, precious) and writing (oh yes, precious, lots of talking to the self). Then there's the whole being a mom thing, and being a wife, and... yeah.

Anyway, I decided to make my life all that much more difficult because we've been wanting to find a place to live. And by place to live, I mean a place that's clean and has central AC, not to mention screens on the windows!

And yeah! We've wanted to live in Hillsborough for a very long time. For those of you who aren't familiar with the OC in NC, it's a charming little historical town, and was in fact, the first capital of this lovely state. It's situated on the Eno River, and I've been in love with it since the first time Michael drove me through four years ago.

So we found a townhouse, right across from the Occoneechee state park (http://www.ils.unc.edu/parkproject/visit/ocmo/home.html). It's beautiful, and only three years old, with high ceilings, open floor plan... gosh, it's just incredible.

Well, we got our stuff together and put in an offer and it got accepted! Not even a bat of an eyelash! Huzzah!!!!!

SO EXITED! OMGWTFBBQ!!
