I'm sitting here sleepless on XMas Eve and my dog thinks I'm drinking as I was laughing out loud...literally and loudly.

That was so cool.Hubby had his last day on New Years eve (on vacation naturally) but that closed a chapter.

I don't want to offend him - I know that I need both of them available when the tenant's kitchen is covered in sewage on christmas eve because of a mainline clog, but is there any way I can see if he is being honest or padding his projects?

New Year's eve was a surprise because we had 2 night minimum set and the guest booked 5 nights.We have 3 weekends left open for the remainder of the year.

Someone cashed a check on Wed eve..

Of course it happened the moment I left town (first time I had left town in 4+ months), and of course it happened on new year's eve at 6 pm, and OF COURSE it happened when a cold front was approaching.

And if I weren't willing to live frugally, I wouldn't be able to leave my job shortly to travel the world - at 31 years old, after buying my first property on New Years' Eve 2012.

So on the eve of the purchase I would have the first month rent in my pocket (as the mortgage pay is not due for 30 day.

@Tara Parker, I’ve been looking at real estate since 2009, but bought my first property on New Years’ Eve 2012.
