Just doing assignments. Java is due on Wednesday, and Data Procassing Systems is due next monday (not tomorrow). Interview is still on for Thurday.

When I Get This Job I can lok at buying my own home. Unfortunately, the house I want to buy is going up for auction in November. I'll miss out on it.

I'm a bit sad about that.

Wow, what a cool place.....too bad you'll miss your opportunity.
It already looks like a sanctuary for bats........is there a sicamore tree in the back yard?
And what price range does a lot like that start at? In Canadian funds?
Can't wait to see your next choice....I am going to start living my homeowning
life vicariously through you. Hope you don't mind!!

There aren't many trees at all around it. If I bought the place I'd use the 68megalitre irrigation allowance to establish a wetlands and to grow the river red-gums that should be there.

It could go for AU$500k (US$250,000ish) except it's on a flood plain. The last floods here reached 3/4 up the ground floor. That will bring the price down a bit.

I don't know what the reserve is, so if the bidding doesn't reach that the sale won't go through. Even so, it could be sold before I save up a deposit.
