The Power of Three

No, I don't mean the Charmed ones (although I do secretly love that show!)

I think I've watched every episode at least twice!

You know how they say that bad things tend to happen in threes?  Well, that theory was proven correct yesterday and here is why.

1. We found out that the house on Maple we wanted had multiple bids close to asking price.  Apparently Ian and I do not think that having a pool and a 2 car attached garage is worth $20,000.
2. Ian found out that the job he was waiting to hear back about isn't actually open.  They decided to keep the guy and let him retire in a year or so. 
3. The Bruins Lost and Ian was "heartbroken"

In an effort to stay positive and look for the good I'm going to turn these three negatives into awesome Golden Moments!

1. A new house opened up yesterday, within our price range, and the kitchen looks really nice.  We are looking at it today, fingers crossed!
2. In an effort to keep Ian at Harvard, they gave him a raise and are looking into giving him Friday off (not ideal but an improvement).  They also said that they are looking in to helping him get his Masters in Operations Management from Harvard, so that's awesome!
3. Ian loves the Bruins, which clearly means we made the right decision in moving him up here.  A stretch I know, but a girl's gotta try right?

Just like that, three Golden Moments!
