We are so happy! There’s nothing like owning your own home to give you a boost of self-confidence. I see an even brighter future ahead of us now! Good luck to the rest of you in achieving this goal. (Now is a great time to buy! Recession! Recession! Recession!)

How I did it: In the last eight years, I have been working full-time and taking college classes when I could afford them. Now that I have finally earned my Associate's Degree, I feel ready to jump into the University arena to finish up! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I have a terrible history with math class. I really never liked the subject. So, when it came down to getting my Associate's Degree, that one last math class made me fear that I would never graduate. I found a good tutor, a friend from my Toastmasters club, who was willing to give me her time for free. We became good friends through the process, and I finally have my degree! Read how I did it…
I hate math! Math hates me!
I have to pass ONE MORE MATH CLASS before I get a college degree.
Thanks to our very wonderful realtor and broker, my husband and have found our first home! We will close on the 27th of this month. Hooray! Patience and hard work pays off!
