    Well I've been a lurker on the board for the last few weeks. My spring semester is wrapping up and things have been a little hectic so I've mainly just had time to read posts. Just wanted to take a minute and say hi to my buddies here and give a little update. I'm wrapping up my 3rd semester back at college. I am on pace to graduate with my BSEE in May 2016. If college in my 30s with a family isn't crazy enough, my wife and I began searching for our first house to buy. We made an offer on Wednesday and it was accepted that afternoon. So if everything goes as planned, I'll own my first house on May 17. Here's a pic....

    Hope everyone is doing well and I'll be back to posting more on the regular after finals next week.

    Nice. Im just wrapping up my 1st year in college. It went by so fast its crazy, but i like it because for the most part im there learning about something im interested in. Another year and a half and ill be out searching for job. Its weird to think about like that considering how fast 1 year went. Good luck with house and finishing off school. :tu:

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words.

    I'm trying for the G2G, but the house may just throw a wrench into those plans this year.
