New Homeowner!
After endless months of waiting, the BNC and I finally closed on the new house in Naperville on Thursday. Spent the day at the new place - getting things delivered and set up (including the satellite dish :D :D :D - NO MORE GETTING STUCK WATCHING BEARS GAMES EVER!), and starting the painful but rewarding moving process. Spent the whole day out there - it really sucked having to come back into the city tonight. Won't actually move for real until the end of the month.
I still haven't quite come to grips with how great it feels - still can't quite believe the place is actually mine and not some greedy bloodsucking landlord's. Parked in my garage today - finally the days of my car getting endlessly pelted with birdshit :mad: are almost over! I also can't come to grips with the money I'm spending - seems like every time I turn around I'm dropping a grand on some damn thing or another (today, almost $1100 for friggin window blinds). The credit cards are starting to melt. I'm sure it will all be worth it in the end, but the crap you never think about sure adds up. And another cool thing - my new next door neighbor is a fellow Chiefs fan! What are the odds of that happening in suburban Chicago? I'll take it as a good omen (or if the season goes to hell, it'll be nice to have someone to share my pain with who isn't hundreds of miles away). Of course, the first object I moved into the new place was my Marcus Allen autographed mini-helmet - he got a kick out of that. Anyway, I'm a pretty happy camper tonight. Will be even happier come June 1st. :cool: |

I have a question.
Does your new neighbor also have Direct TV with the Sunday Ticket?
It would be a shame for 2 Chiefs fans, living in the Chicago suburbs right next door to each other to watch the Chiefs in each separate home.

Timothy
Congratulations! I am close to buying my first home as well. If you don't mind me asking...What type of mortgage did you get on your house? I am not sure which way to go on this one. Could anyone else offer any suggestions? And Tim, why didnt you get the seller to buy your blinds or knock them off the total cost? Or did you do this? What kind of haggling did you do and how did you do it? Just curious....
