Lost Winds = Lost Hours

WiiWare launched this past week and eclecticnerdery downloaded several. One of the games happened to be Lost Winds - a totally cute puzzle game that can’t help but remind players of Okami. And it’s a game I can play and beat!

Yep, that’s right, I beat a game! Whoo-hoo! I hate puzzle games. I can get through so many puzzles and then my brain stops functioning logically and I’m stuck. And when I get stuck, I quit. It’s a cycle that is evident in so many aspects of my life that I am not surprised. But today, I figured out a puzzle that had eclecticnerdery stuck and finished the game before him . . . I’m feeling great!!

But I managed to lose three hours that could have been spent grading or planning. Ach! Oh well, it might actually be a good thing that an informal get-together planned for today has been rescheduled.

Now we’re off to purchase pet supplies and maybe figure out lunch.

Processes #2

The bank decided to play games earlier this week. The day after we placed an offer, we received a call from our realtor who informed us that a few offers had been submitted and the bank was only going to counter the highest offer and had cut $10,000 off the asking price. So we’ve upped our offer and now get to wait until we hear something.

Processes #1

We have an estimate on a really cool and functional kitchen.

We initialed all the paperwork, thereby allowing us to make an offer.

Now we wait.

The House with No Kitchen . . .

. . . allows us to have the kitchen we really desire.

We’ll let you know how it goes, but this is yet another house where we can imagine our future.

Second Look? :(

Nope, the previous romanticized house is in escrow with someone else.

Back to looking . . . . .
