Future changes?

In my previous post, I wrote about getting a new job and since then I finally cleared all my background checks, reference checks, and medical/physical checks (yes I had to have a physical for this job).  I've never been through such an intensive background check and, even though I knew I was going to pass, it was still a little nerve-racking.

Now that I'm for sure done and going to start a new job, it looks like our future plans might be changing.  The basics will be the same.  I still have plans for my 30th birthday party, next year we are going to Hawaii for the first time for our 10 year anniversary, and I still want to finish paying off the last of our debts (mortgage not included).  However, now we're looking at moving to cut down my commute.

This addition of moving is very excited.  Now we have to decide if we will be renting or selling our current house.  It might not happen and there are a lot of things that need to be done first.  I have to finish paying off the student loans, I need to have the money saved for the Hawaii trip, I need to have made it through my 90 days at work, I need to like my work (no worries here), I need to have all the little things repaired at our current house, I need to have a down payment saved, and I need stay in the current house till November.

This is going to be both exciting and nerve-racking.  The target date to start looking at houses will be October.
