No plans yet, except going to visit mom. My dad's birthday was Valentine's Day so we celebrate him that day. There might be chocolate covered berries...
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Okay, so, we are not huge Valentine's Day people, but I always try to get Tim a card. Which I haven't done yet, so I was going to run to the CVS later and see what's left.
I've posted this to FB, but if you have a color printer, print this one out and see what he says.
It's in this hilarious analysis by The Bloggess: This might be a weirdly inappropriate Valentine or I might be reading too much into this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Buy a box of kids' Valentines (obviously superhero-themed; I'm sure I didn't need to say that) and hide each one around the house.
Because Avengers are LOVE. I'm doing it.
An excellent idea!

Teppy, that's a wonderful idea.

House buying folks - how much up front money did you need? Not talking about down payment. If you would rather respond in e-mail, my profile addy is good.

Aw, Tep and Strix's Valentine plans both sound great!

I don't understand the question if it doesn't refer to down payment.

Are there closing costs that have to be paid up front?
I'm putting aside money for moving and trying to add extra for painting or other minor pre-move in costs. But I'm trying to see what else I need to prep for.

Yes, there are some closing costs. Are you going to a bank or a credit union to be pre-approved for a mortgage? Our credit union went over all the closing costs with us well ahead of time, and those costs were dependent on credit score. And if you want to use a lawyer, that will cost more as well. I can't remember the exact costs of what we paid, but I can look it up. Also, there are fees for inspectors.

Sometimes having the effective memory of a goldfish means I can give myself surprise presents. To wit - totally forgot that I bought new sweat pants last time I was at Target. Score!
