Well, it seems like we've given up hope for buying a condo for now. We're anxious to move out of our current dwelling into something cheaper, so we started looking for 2 bedroom apartments around town. We've got an appointment to see one tonight. Its in Arlington, near Russ and Jeff. Looking at apartments is so much less stressful; yet the pace of the search makes things stressful all over again. Hopefully things will work out a little better this time.
